When to Replace the Toner Cartridge
The printer has one toner cartridge: black (K).
When a toner cartridge reaches its usable life-span, the following messages appear on the LCD panel.
IMPORTANT:
• When placing a used toner cartridge on the floor or on a table, place a few sheets of paper under the toner
cartridge to catch any toner that may spill.
• Do not reuse old toner cartridges that you remove from the printer. Doing so can impair print quality.
• Do not shake or pound used toner cartridges. The remaining toner may spill.
• We recommend you use up a toner cartridge within one year after you remove it from the packaging.
