Replace the print cartridge

When a print cartridge approaches the end of useful life, you can continue printing with the current cartridge until redistributing the toner no longer yields acceptable print quality.
  1. Lift the scanner assembly, and open the print-cartridge door.

    CAUTION:To prevent damage to the print cartridge, hold the print cartridge at each end. Do not touch the cartridge shutter or the roller surface.
  4. Grasp both sides of the print cartridge and gently rock the print cartridge to distribute the toner evenly inside the cartridge.

  5. Bend the tab on the left side of the cartridge until the tab breaks loose, and then pull the tab until all the tape is removed from the cartridge. Place the tab and tape in the print-cartridge box to return for recycling.
