REPLACEMENT OF TONER CARTRIDGE

Always replace the toner cartridge after the "Change the toner cartridge." message appears. You should keep one set of replacement toner cartridges on hand so that you can replace a toner cartridge immediately when toner runs out.

REPLACEMENT MESSAGE

When this message appears, prepare a toner cartridge for replacement.
(□□□□) shows the colour of the toner cartridge that should be prepared.
Y: Yellow toner, M: Magenta toner, C: Cyan toner, and Bk: Black toner
Replace the toner cartridge with a one of the relevant colour.

If you continue to use the machine, the following message will appear when the toner runs out.

Open the right side cover.

Hold both sides and open.

Pull the toner cartridge toward you.

(1) Yellow
(2) Magenta
(3) Cyan
(4) Black
Spread newspaper or something similar in advance where you will place the toner cartridge.
(Example) Replacing the black toner cartridge
Press the lock at the bottom of the toner cartridge to unlock it and pull the toner cartridge toward you.
When the removed toner cartridge is placed, be sure to place it with the gear-mounted side facing up.

Take out a new toner cartridge from its package and shake it vertically five or six times.

Slowly insert the new toner cartridge on the level.

Push in the rounded indentation until it “clicks” into position.
A toner cartridge of a different colour cannot be installed. Be sure to install a toner cartridge of the same colour.

Close the right side cover.

Hold both sides and close.
After the toner cartridge is replaced, the machine automatically enters image adjustment mode. Do not open the front cover while this is occurring.

Warning

  • Do not throw a toner cartridge into a fire. Toner may fly and cause burns.
  • Store toner cartridges out of reach of small children.
  • If a toner cartridge is stored sideways, the toner may harden and become unusable. Always store toner cartridges in the upright position.
  • If a toner cartridge other than a SHARP-recommended toner cartridge is used, the machine may not attain full quality and performance and there is a risk of damage to the machine. Be sure to use a SHARP-recommended toner cartridge.
  • If any one of the toner colours runs out, colour printing will no longer be possible.
  • If the Y, M, or C toners run out but a quantity of Bk toner still remains, printing is performed in black and white.
  • Depending on your conditions of use, the colour may become light or the image blurred.
  • Be sure to install four toner cartridges (Y/M/C/Bk).
  • Do not throw away the removed toner cartridge, instead place it in the plastic bag provided and keep it in the box in which it was packed. Your service technician will collect them.
  • To view the approximate amount of toner remaining (indicated in %), hold down the [Home Screen] key during printing or in standby mode. When the percentage falls to "25-0%", keep a toner cartridge for replacement purposes before toner runs out.
  • When the toner cartridge included with the machine is installed, the remaining toner level will be displayed as "50-25%" from the beginning. (The toner cartridge that will be set at the time of installation has a lower print capacity than the normal toner cartridge.)
  • When toner runs out while the home screen is displayed, the "Toner Empty" message appears in the screen. Additionally, if the toner quantity is displayed on the home screen, a " " will be displayed above colours for which toner has run out.
