SUPPLIES AND USER MAINTENANCE
This chapter describes how to replace the TD cartridge and the drum cartridge.
Be sure to use only genuine SHARP parts and supplies.
TD CARTRIDGE REPLACEMENT
The TD cartridge replacement required (
) indicator will light up when toner is needed. For
more information on purchasing the TD cartridge, see OPTION AND SUPPLY PART NUMBERS
AND STORAGE on page 44. If copying is continued while the
indicator is lit, copies will
gradually become lighter until the copier stops and the indicator begins blinking. Replace the
old TD cartridge by following the procedure given below.
●
After the copier stops, it may be possible to make a few more copies by
taking the TD cartridge out of the copier, shaking it horizontally, then reinstalling
it. If copying is not possible after this operation, replace the TD cartridge.
●
During long copy run of a dark original, the ready (
) indicator may blink,
the
indicator light up, and the copier stop, even though toner is left. The
copier will feed toner up to 2 minutes and then the ready (
) indicator will
light up. Press the print (
) key to restart copying.
