Replacing the Toner Cartridges

This section describes how to handle, store and replace toner cartridges. It is necessary to replace a Toner Cartridge only when the printer stops printing and has the error led lit together with a mesage requesting to change the toner.

Toner Cartridge Handling Precautions

The printer uses four toner cartridges: black, yellow, magenta, and cyan. The black toner cartridge is capable of printing about 9,000 A4 pages. The yellow, magenta, and cyan cartridges are capable of printing about 8,000 A4 pages (at the default print density, with 5% coverage per color).

WARNING

Never throw used toner cartridges into a fire. The residual toner could explode resulting in burns and injuries. Do not subject it to direct sunlight or strong light.

Although the toner is not harmful to the body, wash it off immediately if your hands or clothes are stained with it.

It is recommended to use up the toner cartridge within 1 year after opening it.

Handling Precautions

Never use a vacuum cleaner to clean toner. Static electricity could build up and damage sensors.

Do not reuse toner cartridges once you have removed them from the printer. Loose toner could spill inside the printer and deteriorate print quality.

To prevent residual toner from spilling, avoid shaking or bumping used toner cartridges.

After moving a toner cartridge from a cold place to a warm place, allow 1 hour for the cartridge to adapt to room temperature before installing it. (This is not necessary if there is no condensation.)

Toner is harmless, but should still be washed off immediately if it comes into contact with hands or clothing.

Only use toner cartridges recommended by TallyGenicom. Using toner cartridges that are not recommended may result in lower print quality and unsatisfactory printer performance.

Wrap used toner cartridges in plastic bags and dispose of them as nonburnable waste.

When handling toner cartridges, take care not to damage the projection (the same color as the cartridge) at the bottom of the cartridge.

Storage Precautions

Store toner cartridges away from direct sunlight under the following conditions: Ambient temperature range, 0 to 35o. Humidity range 15 to 80% RH (no condensation).

Avoid hot and humid areas.

Avoid storing near magnetic objects such as CRT screens, disk drives, or floppy disks.

Keep out of reach of children.

Do not stand toner cartridges on their ends.
