Ink and Toner Must Know Facts

You just finished that very important business letter, announcement or that gut gushing love declaration, you saved, you send the file to print and the page comes out blank. Well that is definitely a sure way to find out your out of ink, but it’s not the most recommended.

The following are a few facts you should be aware of when using ink cartridges or toner cartridges:

When the Toner Low message appears or when you begin experiencing faded print, you should order a new toner cartridge. While you wait for it, you can print a few hundred pages after the Toner Low message appears, but the print quality will begin to deteriorate as the toner level decreases.

You can remove the current toner cartridge and lightly shake it several times to redistribute any remaining toner. You can repeat this procedure several times, but it must be while you are waiting for the cartridge you already ordered.

DO NOT take out ink cartridges if you do not need to replace them. If you do so, it may reduce the ink quantity and the machine will not know the quantity of ink left in the cartridge.

Once you open an ink cartridge, install it in the machine and use it up within six months of installation. Use unopened ink cartridges by the expiration date written on the cartridge package.

DO NOT dismantle or tamper with the ink cartridge; this can cause the ink to leak out of the cartridge.

If you mix the colors by installing an ink cartridge in the wrong position, clean the print head several times after correcting the cartridge installation.

Be sure to seal the toner cartridge tightly so toner powder does not spill out of the cartridge. If you have questions, call your local waste disposal office.
