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 computer’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 259).
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. Check the type of the toner cartridge for your machine
(see "Available consumables" on page 55).
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 17).
•
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 area of the toner cartridge. Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching this area.
•
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.
