Maintaining the toner cartridge
Toner cartridge storage
To get the most from the toner cartridge, keep the following
guidelines in mind:
• Do not remove the toner cartridge from its package until
ready for use.
• Do not refill the toner cartridge. The machine warranty
does not cover damage caused by using a refilled
toner cartridge .
• Store toner cartridges in the same environment as your
machine.
• To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose it
to light for more than a few minutes.
Saving toner
To save toner, press Menu until Toner Save appears and then
press OK when On appears. Using this feature extends the life
of the toner cartridge and reduces your cost per page, but it
also reduces print quality.
Expected toner cartridge life
The life of the toner cartridge depends on the amount of toner
that print jobs require. When printing text at ISO 19752 5%
coverage, a new toner cartridge lasts an average of 3,000
pages. (The original toner cartridge supplied with the machine
lasts an average of 1,000 pages.) The actual number may be
different depending on the print density of the page you print.
If you print a lot of graphics, you may need to change the toner
cartridge more often.

different shapes.
Redistributing the toner cartridge
When the toner cartridge is near the end of its life:
• White streaks or light printing occurs.
• The warning message,
Toner Low displays on the control
panel.
• The Status LED blinks red.
If this happens, you can temporarily reestablish print quality by
redistributing the remaining toner in the toner cartridge. In
some cases, white streaks or light printing will still occur even
after you have redistributed the toner.
1 Open the front cover.
2 Pull the toner cartridge out.
3 Thoroughly roll the toner cartridge 5 or 6 times to
distribute the toner evenly inside the toner cartridge.

OTE
: 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.
C
AUTION
: Do not touch the green underside of the toner
cartridge. Use the handle on the toner cartridge to avoid
touching this area.
4 Hold the toner cartridge by the handle and slowly insert
the toner cartridge into the opening in the machine.
5 Tabs on the sides of the toner cartridge and corresponding
grooves within the machine will guide the toner cartridge
into the correct position until it locks into place completely.
6 Close the front cover. Make sure that the cover is securely
closed.
