Replacing the toner cartridge
When the toner is completely empty or the toner cartridge reached the
end of its life span:
• The printer stops printing.
• The Status Monitor program window appears on the computer.
•The Alert LED blinks red.
At this stage, the toner cartridge needs to be replaced.
1 Open the front cover.
2 Pull the old toner cartridge out.
3 Remove the new toner cartridge from its bag.
Warning
• Do not incinerate used toner or toner containers. Toner dust
might ignite when exposed to an open flame.
• Disposal can take place at our authorized dealer.
• Dispose of used toner containers in accordance with local
regulations.
Caution
• Keep toner (used or unused) and toner cartridge out of reach
of children.
Note
• 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.
4 Thoroughly shake the cartridge 5 or 6 times to distribute the toner
evenly inside the cartridge.
Thoroughly shake the cartridge to assure maximum copies per
cartridge.
5 Remove the paper protecting the toner cartridge by pulling the
packing tape.
6 Hold the toner cartridge by the handle and slowly insert the
cartridge into the opening in the printer.
Note
• Refer to the helpful pictures on the cartridge wrapping paper.
• 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.
• To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose it to
light for more than a few minutes. Cover it with a piece of
paper, if necessary.
• Do not touch the green surface underside of the toner
cartridge. Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching
this area.
