Change Toner C, Change Toner M, Change Toner Y, Change Toner K
Use them when replacing a toner cartridge before “uuuu Toner Cart Out”
occurs. When the toner cartridge to replace is specified and the Enter button
pressed, the panel displays “Please Wait” and the printer moves to the
position for replacing the toner cartridge. Then, the printer displays “Replace
Toner x” (x = C, M, Y or K that is specified) and enters the wait state.
Normally this process will be finished at several seconds, but if the printer is
entering the sleep mode, it may take several minutes occasionally.
When this operation is executed, the sleep mode is released once and the printing
process is not performed. Moreover, the Reset, Job Cancel, and Form Feed
specified with EJL or MIB during this process become invalid. Reset All is valid
during this process. This process ends when the cover is opened and closed

The remaining amount of toner of each toner cartridge, as
measured on the engine side in the range from 0% to 100% in
units of 2%, is returned to the controller. This state is always
started from 100% even if 1.5K toner is installed. It is necessary to
convert into the remaining amount on the controller side because
the toner information received from the engine is a use rate.

P O I N T
The counter value is counted on the engine side. It is necessary to
convert into the remaining amount on the controller side because
the Photoconductor information received from the engine is a use
rate.
