Toner Container Replacement

The life of the toner containers depends on the amount of toner required to

accomplish your printing jobs. Assuming paper of A4 size, an average

toner coverage of approximately 5% and EcoPrint mode turned off, the

toner container will need replacing approximately once every 20,000

pages (PG L245); 15,000 pages (PG L235); 12,000 pages (PG L230).

You can print a status page to check how much toner remains in the toner

container. The Toner Gauge in the consumables status section on the

status page shows a progress bar, which roughly represents how much

toner is left in the toner container.

Starter Toner Container

The toner container packed with the new printer is a starter toner container.

The starter toner container lasts an average of 10,000 pages (PG L245);

7,500 pages (PG L235); 6,000 pages (PG L230).

message Toner low as the first caution. Note the replacement is not

always necessary at this stage.

• If you ignore the above message and continue printing, the printer

displays the message Replace toner — just before the toner is

used up. The toner container must be replaced immediately. After the

cleaning is finished, however, the message does not automatically
