Chapter 6 Maintenance

This chapter explains how to replace the toner container and the waste toner box and how to clean the internal parts of the printer. When you replace the toner container, make sure to clean the in- ternal parts of the printer.

1. Toner Container Replacement

The toner container in the printer should be replaced as soon as the message display shows Toner low TK-70or soon after. If you continue to use the printer, eventually the toner supply will be exhausted at which point the printer will stop printing and the Replace toner Clean printer message will be shown in- structing you to install a new toner kit.

1.1 Toner Container Replacement Interval

Assuming an average toner coverage of 5 % and Ecoprint mode turned off, the toner container will need replacing approximately once every 40,000 pages.*

*For a new printer with a toner kit installed for the first time, the number of copies that can be printed will be approximately 20,000.
