Samsung 5400 manual Replacing the Toner Cartridge

Replacing the Toner Cartridge

The number of pages you can print with one toner cartridge varies depending on the type of documents you usually receive or copy. A toner cartridge will print about 2,000 letter-size pages at a typical print coverage of 4% (equivalent of CCITT No. 1 test chart).

!The first toner cartridge in your new fax machine has to fill the drum reservoir and saturate the developing

roller with toner. For this reason, it will need to be replaced sooner than subsequent cartridges—after about 1,000 pages.

If your fax machine displays TONER LOW or REPLACE TONER CART., replace the toner cartridge with a new one soon. If print density is high enough, you can continue to use the toner cartridge without replacing it until print quality becomes unacceptable. Keep in mind that if you don’t replace the cartridge soon, there is a risk that a fax will be unreadable when it prints using an empty cartridge.

If the print density becomes low even before your fax machine displays TONER LOW or REPLACE TONER CART.,

gently wipe the lens surface of the LED array (refer to Step 8). If the print density does not improve, replace the toner cartridge.

!Warning: Be careful when handling the toner cartridge. Do not let toner spill on your clothing or other porous

materials. Use cold water to clean up spilled toner; hot water causes the stain to set.
