Redistributing toner

When the toner cartridge is near the end of its life:

White streaks or light printing occurs and/or density variation side to side.

The Status LED blinks red. The toner-related message saying that the toner is low may appear on the display.

The computers’s Samsung Printing Status program window appears on the computer telling you which color cartridge is low on toner (see "Using Samsung Printer Status" on page 266).

If this happens, you can temporarily improve print quality by redistributing the remaining toner in the cartridge. In some cases, white streaks or light printing will still occur even after you have redistributed the toner.

Illustrations on this user’s guide may differ from your machine depending on its options or models. Check your machine type (see "Front view" on page 21).

• Do not use sharp objects such as a knife or scissors to open the toner cartridge package. They might scratch the drum of the cartridge.

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.

When opening a scan unit, hold the document feeder and scan unit together.

Printing even after the toner empty status can cause serious damage to your machine.
