Toner Cartridge Life
A toner cartridge contains enough toner to print the following number of letter/
A4-size planes:
5"
Initial starter black toner cartridges will print 7,000 letter/A4-size
planes, while the yellow, magenta, and cyan initial starter toner
cartridges will each print 4,250 letter/A4-size planes at normal
5% coverage.
When toner runs low in a cartridge, <COLOR> TONER LOW displays in the
message window. Printing continues even though the warning appears.
However, the color gradually fades, so replace the toner cartridge as soon
as possible.
When toner is low, it’s sometimes helpful to take the cartridge out of the
printer and redistribute the toner by gently rocking the cartridge horizontally
side to side (as you do for a new cartridge) five or six times. Then reinstall the
cartridge.
If the
<COLOR> TONER LOW message remains in the message window after
you redistribute the toner and print quality is affected, you must replace the
toner cartridge.
The printer, approximately 100 planes after detecting that toner in a cartridge
is low, displays
<COLOR> TONER EMPTY in the message window.
