(5) Replacing the waste toner bottle
Note that the printer has a sensor to monitor the presence of the waste toner bottle. The printer does
not operate without a waste toner bottle installed.
For the reference, the waste toner bottle can hold up to 100 g of waste toner. The nominal amount
of waste toner derived after 10,000 pages of printing is 20 to 30 g (Letter or A4 size paper; average
print coverage of 5 %).
Open the side cover. While holding old the waste toner bottle 1, press the lock lever 2 in the
right ward direction. Then gently pull out the waste toner bottle 1. Close the cap 3 of waste toner
bottle 1 after removing from the printer. To avoid toner spilling, place the capped waste toner
bottle 1 in the plastic bag 4 supplied before forwarding to proper disposal.
Locate the new waste toner bottle in the toner kit, and install it in the printer according to section 2-
2-2 Installing the waste toner bottle on page 2-8.
