Toner Replenisher Function
When many copies are made of an original that has a large amount of
black area (such as a photograph), the copier can rapidly exhaust the
supply of toner available. As a result, the image density of the copies will
become lighter. In such a case, use the Toner Replenisher function to
regain the normal image density quickly.
