Maintenance 4-2 OPERATION GUIDEGeneral InformationThis chapter describes basic maintenance tasks you can perform for the printer. You can replace the following components according to the printer’s status:• Toner Containers• Waste Toner BoxAlso, the internal parts need periodic cleaning.NOTE: Information Collection on Memory Chips — The memory chip attached to the toner container is designed to improve convenience for the end user; to support the recycling operation of empty toner containers; and to gather information to support new product planning and development. The information gathered is anonymous — it cannot be associated to any specific individual and the data is intended to be used anonymously.
Maintenance OPERATION GUIDE 4-3Toner Container ReplacementFrequency of toner container replacementThe life of the toner containers depends on the amount of toner required to accomplish your printing jobs. When 5% coverage (a typical business document) of individual toner colors is assumed for A4 or letter size paper:• Black toner containers last an average of 5,000 monochrome pages.• The cyan, magenta, and yellow toner containers last an average of 4,000 or 2,000 color images.You can print a status page to check how much toner remains in the toner container. The Toner Gauge in the consumables status section on the status page shows a progress bar, which roughly represents how much toner is left in the toner container.Starter Toner ContainerThe toner containers packed with new printer are starter toner containers. The black starter toner container lasts an average of 2,000 monochrome pages. The cyan, magenta, and yellow starter toner containers last an average of 2,000 color images for each.Toner KitsIt is strongly recommended that you use the new toner kit supplied from the manufacturer to prevent printer problems and ensure a long printer life.The toner kits are supplied in 4 different colors: cyan, magenta, yellow and black.A new toner kit contains the following items:• Toner Container• Cleaning cloth• Three plastic waste bags for old toner container and old waste toner box• Waste toner box• Installation GuideNOTE: Do not remove the toner container from the carton until you are ready to install it in the printer.Understanding Indicators Requesting Toner Container ReplacementThe toner indicator identifies the toner status at two stages of toner usage. • When the printer becomes low on toner, the toner indicator flashes. Note the replacement is not always necessary at this stage.
Maintenance 4-4 OPERATION GUIDE• If you ignore the above status and continue printing, the indicator lights up — just before the toner is used up. The toner container must then be replaced immediately.In either case, replace the toner container, refer to Toner Container Replacement on page 4-3.Replacing the Toner ContainerNOTE: During toner container replacement, temporarily move storage media and computer supplies (such as floppy disks) away from the toner container. This is to avoid damaging media by the magnetism of toner.This section explains how to replace the toner container. When replacing the toner container, always replace the waste toner box at the same time. If this box is full, the printer may be damaged or contaminated by the waste toner that may spill out of the box. NOTE: You do not have to turn printer power off before starting the replacement.
