Replacing the Toner Cartridge
When there is only a small amount of toner remaining inside the machine, the message <Replace toner cartridge.> appears
on the touch panel display. You can continue printing, but at this time you should purchase a new toner cartridge to have it
available when needed.
When the toner completely runs out and prints can no longer be made, a screen with instructions on how to replace the toner
cartridge appears on the touch panel display. Follow the procedure described below to replace the toner cartridge.
If you press [Close], you can continue operations, such as setting modes and scanning originals, even if you do not replace the
toner cartridge immediately.
• Do not burn or throw used toner cartridges into open  ames, as this may cause the toner to ignite,
resulting in burns or a  re.
• If you accidentally spill or scatter toner, carefully wipe up the loose toner with a damp, soft cloth and
avoid inhaling any toner dust. Do not use a vacuum cleaner that is not equipped with safety measures to
prevent dust explosions to clean up loose toner. Doing so may cause damage to the vacuum cleaner or
result in a dust explosion due to static discharge.
• Keep toner out of the reach of small children.
• If toner is ingested, consult a physician immediately.
• If toner gets onto your hands or clothing, wash it o immediately with cold water. Washing it o with
warm water will set the toner, and make it impossible to remove the toner stains.
