Issue
A copy/print job or printing fax is interrupted and the message <OUT OF TONER /CHANGE TONER> appears on the display.
Cause and Solution
If the toner is running out, the message <OUT OF TONER /CHANGE TONER> appears on the display. Replace the toner cartridge with a new one.
If the message is displayed while copying or printing, the job is interrupted when the machine finishes printing on the paper that has been supplied.
If the message is displayed while receiving fax, printing fax is interrupted and the received data will be stored in the memory.
If you set <CONT. PRINTING> to <ON>, you can keep printing fax documents or reports without replacing the toner cartridge.
IMPORTANT
When <CONT. PRINTING> is set to <ON>, the printed documents may be light or blurred because of lack of toner. The data is erased when the documents are printed out, so you cannot print the same documents again.
