6.7.5 TONER SUPPLY
Toner Bottle Replenishment Mechanism
When the toner bottle is installed in the bottle holder [A], the hook of the toner shutter [B]
slides up the side [C] of the drum unit, pulling out the toner shutter. When the toner bottle
holder lever [D] is returned to its original position, the cap [E] pulls away and is kept in
place by the chuck [F].
The toner bottle holder lever [D] cannot be locked until one of the following occurs:
Until a toner bottle is installed in the holder. This prevents toner falling out of the holder
unit as a result of lowering the handle with no toner bottle installed.
Until the holder and bottle have been pushed into the machine completely and locked
in place. Instruct the customer to always follow the bottle replacement instructions of
the new decal attached to the toner bottle.
The toner bottle has a spiral groove, which rotates the bottle to move toner to the
development unit. When the bottle holder unit is pulled out, the chuck [F] releases the toner
bottle cap and the toner shutter [B] closes and blocks the opening.
