Replacing the Waste Toner Bottle

WARNING

  • Do not dispose of the following items into a fire. Toner will ignite on contact with naked flame and burns can result.

    • Toner (new or used)

    • Toner containers while toner is inside

    • Toner-attached parts

  • Do not store toner (new or used) or toner containers while toner is inside in a place with an open flame. The toner can ignite and result in burns or fire.

  • The following explains the warning messages on the plastic bag used in this product's packaging:

    • Do not leave the polythene materials (bags, etc.) supplied with this machine close to babies and small children. Suffocation can result if polythene materials are brought into contact with the mouth or nose.

  • Do not absorb spilled toner (including used toner) using a vacuum cleaner. Absorbed toner may cause ignition or explosion due to electric contact sparks inside the vacuum cleaner. However, you can use a toner-compatible industrial vacuum cleaner. When toner is spilled, remove the spilled toner using a wet cloth so that the toner is not scattered.

CAUTION

  • Do not open toner containers forcibly while toner is inside, crush or squeeze them. Toner spillage can cause accidental ingestion or dirtying of clothes, hands, or floor.

  • Do not leave the following items in a place where children can reach them:

    • Toner (new or used)

    • Toner containers while toner is inside

    • Toner-attached parts

  • When the following occurs while toner is handled, receive emergency measures first, and then consult a doctor if necessary.

    • When inhaling toner, gargle with a large amount of water and move into a fresh air environment.

    • When swallowing toner, dilute gastric contents with a large amount of water.

    • When getting toner into your eyes, flush them with a large amount of water.

  • If toner (new or used) comes into contact with your skin or clothes and smears them, take the following actions:

    • If toner comes into contact with your skin, wash the affected area thoroughly with soap and water.

    • If toner comes into contact with your clothes, wash the stained area with cold water. Heating the stained area by applying hot water will set the toner into the fabric and removing the stain may become impossible.

  • When replacing a container with toner (including used toner) or consumables with toner, be careful that the toner does not splatter. After removing used consumables and shutting the lid of the container if the lid is available, put them in a bag.

Important

  • Waste toner bottles cannot be reused.

  • Before removing the waste toner bottle from the machine, spread paper or some other material around the area to keep toner from dirtying your workspace.

  • When removing the waste toner bottle, do not touch the inside of the machine.

  • Be careful to not allow the toner to leak from the waste toner bottle when you remove it.

  • Carefully pull the waste toner bottle out horizontally when you are replacing it.

  • Do not use a waste toner bottle that has not been used for a long time.

  • Take care not to drop the waste toner bottle.

  • Make sure the waste toner bottle is fully inserted. If it is not, toner will leak inside the machine.

  • We recommend purchasing and keeping a spare waste toner bottle on hand since waste toner bottles are consumable items.

Follow the instruction on the control panel regarding how to replace a waste toner bottle.

Note

  • Replace the waste toner bottle if “Waste Toner Bottle is full. Replace Waste Toner Bottle.” appears on the control panel.

  • When the “Replacement of Waste Toner Bottle will soon be necessary.” appears on the control panel, the waste toner bottle should be replaced soon. Prepare a new waste toner bottle.
