5Close the front cover. Make sure that the cover is securely closed.

Replacing the toner cartridge

When the toner cartridge is completely empty:

Toner Empty appears on the display.

The Status LED blinks red.

The machine stops printing. Incoming faxes are saved in memory.

At this stage, the toner cartridge needs to be replaced. For order information for toner cartridges, see page 12.1.

Note

You can set the machine to disregard the Toner Empty message and to continue printing. See page 13.6.

1Open the front cover.

2Pull the toner cartridge out.

3Remove the new toner cartridge from its bag.

4Remove the packing tape and roll the cartridge 5 or 6 items to distribute the toner.

Thoroughly roll the cartridge to assure maximum copies per cartridge. Save the box and the plastic bag for shipping.

Notes

• If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and wash clothing in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric.

Do not touch the green underside of the toner cartridge. Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching this area.

5Hold the toner cartridge by the handle and slowly insert the cartridge into the opening in the machine.

Tabs on the sides of the cartridge and corresponding grooves within the machine will guide the cartridge into the correct position until it locks into place completely.

6Close the front cover. Make sure that the cover is securely closed.

If the problem remains, repeat steps 1 through 4.
