Draining the Developer Mixture
Caution:
Observe the safety directives in the ‘Replacing the Developer - Overview’ on page 336 section.
Attention:
The used developer mixture is sucked into the waste toner box via a vacuum system.
Before draining the developer mixture, check whether there is still enough space for it in
the waste toner box; you should also ensure that the waste toner box can still be lifted
out when filled with the additional developer mixture (approx. 5.5 kg/12.1 lb). Otherwise,
the waste toner box must be changed first (see ‘Replace waste toner box’ on page 331).
