Redistributing Toner
When the toner cartridge is near the end of its life, white streaks or light print occurs. The LCD displays the warning message, Toner Low. Thoroughly shake
the toner cartridge from side-to-side to distribute the toner evenly and temporarily improve print quality.
This is not intended to be a long-term method of correction, but only to assist your printing needs until you obtain a new cartridge assembly.
CAUTION: Do not touch the green underside of the toner cartridge. Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching this area.
1. Open the top cover.
2. Pull the toner cartridge out.
3. Thoroughly shake the cartridge 3-4 times to distribute the toner evenly inside the cartridge.
NOTE: If toner comes into contact with your clothing, wipe the toner off with a dry cloth and wash your clothing in cold water. Hot water sets toner into
fabric.
