Kyocera FS-6970DN Operation Guide

4-2 Maintenance
General Information
This chapter describes basic maintenance tasks you can perform for the
printer. You can replace the following component according to the
printer's display:
• Toner Kits
• Waste Toner Box
Also, the internal parts need periodic cleaning.
Toner Container Replacement
Frequency of toner container replacement
The life of the toner containers depends on the amount of toner required
to accomplish your printing jobs. Assuming paper of A4 size, an average
toner coverage of approximately 5% and EcoPrint mode turned off, the
toner container will need replacing approximately once every 15,000
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 7,500 pages.
Toner Kits
For best results, we recommend that you only use genuine Kyocera
Parts and Supplies.
A new toner kit contains the following items:
• Toner Container
• Plastic waste bag for old toner container and waste toner box
• Waste toner box
• Installation Guide
Understanding Messages Requesting Toner
Container Replacement
The printer displays messages at two stages of toner usage. This
message is automatically alternated with the other printer message
(such as Ready):
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.
