Note
“[Y] [M] [C] [K] Toner Is Low” is a warning condition. “Replace [Y] [M] [C]
[K] Toner Cartridge” is a hard stop error condition.
An empty cartridge or a fatal error within the cartridge or printer can cause the
hard stop condition. Check for an error code in the help text prior to
troubleshooting this error message. If a code is present in the help text, go to the
fatal error troubleshooting procedure for "Replace [Y] [M] [C] [K] Toner
Cartridge" on page 3-81.
When no jobs are being sent to the printer, an additional low toner warning
message “[Y] [M] [C] [K] Toner Cartridge Empty” will be displayed on the front
panel. This allows continued printing (Run Black) in black and white mode for a
short period of time. Once the color cartridges are empty, the message changes to
“Replace [Y] [M] [C] [K] Toner Cartridge”, a hard stop.
