IMPORTANT
• Use only toner cartridges intended for use with this machine.
• Do not replace toner cartridges until the message prompting you to do so appears.
• Do not replace toner cartridges while the machine is printing, as this may cause a paper jam to occur.
• The colour of the toner to be replaced is shown on the touch panel display.
• If you continue copying or printing in black-and-white after cyan, magenta, or yellow toner runs out, do
not remove the depleted toner cartridges from the machine.
• You can display an error message informing the user that the remaining toner is low. For instructions on
displaying the remaining toner error message, see "Displaying the Remaining Toner Error Message," in
the Reference Guide. For instructions on erasing the remaining toner error message, see "Erasing the
Remaining Toner Error Message," in the Reference Guide.
• Do not touch the shutter door and gear on the toner cartridge, as this may cause the toner cartridge to
leak.
Black Toner Cartridge
NOTE
• When the message <Black toner is low. Replacement not yet needed.> appears, approximately 10% of
the toner is left. It is recommended that you get a new toner cartridge ready for replacement before the
displayed toner colour runs out.
• Complete instructions on how to replace the toner cartridge can be accessed by pressing [Previous] or
[Next] on the touch panel display.
• If toner runs out during a print job, the remaining prints are made after you replace the toner cartridge.
• If black toner is left, you can continue copying and printing in black-and-white. However, if a job is
interrupted because cyan, magenta, or yellow toner runs out, copying and printing in black-and-white is
only possible for functions other than the function being used for the interrupted job.
• After replacing toner cartridges, if printed colours are different from the colours printed before you
replaced the toner cartridges, perform an Automatic Gradation Adjustment in Common Settings (from
the Additional Functions screen). (See "Automatic Gradation Adjustment," in the Reference Guide.)
