Supplies Menu

The Supplies Menu provides information about printer

 

 

 

supplies that require attention. It is only available when a

 

 

 

supply is low or needs replacement.

 

 

 

You can view the Supplies Menu when the printer is idle

 

 

 

or when the printer is busy processing or printing a job.

 

 

 

Press Menu> or <Menu to open the Supplies Menu. The

 

 

 

information in the menu changes as the supplies’ status

 

 

 

changes, even after you have opened the menu.

When a toner cartridge has only enough toner left to print approximately 250 pages, the

 

 

printer identifies the cartridge in the Supplies Menu (for example, Magenta Toner). When the

 

 

toner cartridge is completely empty, the printer ceases operation. See page 93 or page 108

 

 

for more information.

Life Warning

 

 

 

 

Exhausted

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Like the toner cartridge, each of the color photoconductors requires periodic replacement.

 

 

When a photoconductor (or PC Drum) is nearing the end of its life or needs replacing, the

 

 

printer displays an item such as Magenta PC Drum in the Supplies Menu.

 

 

You must replace all three color photoconductors (magenta, cyan, and yellow) at the same

 

 

time. When you replace the black photoconductor, you must also replace the fuser

 

 

coating roll.

 

 

 

 

See page 94 or page 108 for more information.

Low

 

 

 

 

Empty

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Your printer can detect if a tray is missing, low on paper (less than 50 sheets), or empty. The

 

 

Supplies Menu lists any of the installed trays (tray 1, tray 2, or tray 3) that meets any of these

 

 

three conditions.
