4-2 Maintenance
General Information
This chapter describes basic maintenance tasks you can perform for the
printer. You can replace the toner container according to the printer's
display.
Also, the internal parts need periodic cleaning.
Toner Container Replacement
The message identifies the toner status at two stages of toner usage.
• When the printer becomes low on toner, the message
Toner low
is
displayed. Note the replacement is not always necessary at this
stage.
• If you ignore the above status and continue printing, the message
Replace toner Clean printer
is displayed just before the
toner is used up. The toner container must then be replaced
immediately.
In either case, replace the toner container.
Frequency of Toner Container Replacement
Assuming an average toner coverage of 5 % and EcoPrint mode turned
off, the toner container
will need replacing approximately once every
7,200 pages.
You can print a status page to check how much toner remains in the
toner container. The Toner Gauge in the consumables status section on
the status page shows a progress bar, which roughly represents how
much toner is left in the toner container.
Starter Toner Container
The toner container packed with the new printer is a starter toner
container. The starter toner container
lasts an average of 2,300 pages.
Toner Kits
For best results, we recommend that you only use genuine
Parts and Supplies.
A new toner kit contains the following items:
• Toner Container
• Plastic waste bag for old toner container
• Installation Guide
Note Information Collection on Memory Chips - The memory chip
attached to the toner container is designed to improve
convenience for the end user; to support the recycling operation of
empty toner containers; and to gather information to support new
product planning and development. The information gathered is
anonymous - it cannot be associated to any specific individual and
the data is intended to be used anonymously.
Note Do not remove the toner container from the carton until you
are ready to install it in the printer.
