1. Pull down on the toner storage area in the front of the printer to attain access to the toner cartridge.
2. Pull the toner cartridge out of the printer. If the cartridge is located in a holder, press the claps on the holder down and remove the cartridge.
3. Shake the cartridge back and forth up between five and ten times to loosen any toner which is stuck to the sides of the toner containment area.
4. Place a piece of black electrical tape over the small gray circle located on the side of the cartridge. This is the indicator which the printer uses to determine the ink level. By covering it, you fool the printer into thinking the ink level is full.
5. Replace the cartridge into the holder and insert it back into the printer. Close the toner compartment.
Keeping your printer clean is very necessary because it not only increases the life of printer but also increases the life of the accessories attached with the printer. Always handle your printer with care and when you are not using your printer at that time turn off your printer.
