Estimated toner cartridge life
Estimated cartridge life (the life of the toner cartridge yield) depends on the amount of toner that print jobs
require. The actual print yield may vary depending on the print density of the pages you print on, operating
environment, percentage of image area, printing interval, media type and/or media size. For example, if you print
a lot of graphics, the consumption of the toner is higher and you may need to change the cartridge more often.
Redistributing toner
When the toner cartridge is near the end of its life:
●
White streaks or light printing occurs and/or density varies from 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 Printing Status program window appears on the computer telling you which cartridge is low
on toner.
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.
NOTE: Illustrations on this user’s guide may dier from your machine depending on its options or models.
Check your machine type.
CAUTION: If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it o with a dry cloth and wash clothing in cold water. Hot water
sets toner into fabric.
