D Adding Toner
When D appears, it is time to add toner.
Handling Toner
WARNING:
•Do not incinerate used toner or toner containers. Toner dust might ignite when exposed to an open flame. Dispose of used toner containers
in accordance with local regulations.
CAUTION:
•Keep toner (used or unused) and toner containers out of reach of children.
CAUTION:
•If toner or used toner is inhaled, gargle with plenty of water and move into a
fresh air environment. Consult a doctor if necessary.
CAUTION:
•If toner or used toner gets into your eyes, flush immediately with large
amounts of water. Consult a doctor if necessary.
CAUTION:
•If toner or used toner is swallowed, dilute by drinking a large amount of water. Consult a doctor if necessary.
CAUTION:
•Avoid getting toner on your clothes or skin when removing a paper jam or
replacing toner. If your skin comes into contact with toner, wash the affected
area thoroughly with soap and water.
•If toner gets on your clothing, wash with cold water. Hot water will set the
toner into the fabric and may make removing the stain impossible.
Important
❒ Faults may occur if you use toner other than the recommended type.
❒ When adding toner, do not turn off the operation switch. If you do, settings
will be lost.
❒ Always add toner when the machine instructs you.
❒ Do not repeatedly install and remove toner bottles. This will result in toner
leakage.
❒ Do not shake the removed toner bottle. Remaining toner might scatter.
Note
❒ You can make about 50 copies even after the D symbol begins flashing, but
replace toner early to prevent poor copy quality.

• When you use this machine for a
long time in a confined space without good ventilation, you may detect an odd smell. To keep the
workplace comfortable, we recommend that you keep it well ventilated.
• The area around the ventilation
hole might feel warm. This is
caused by exhaust air and is not a
malfunction.
• When the machine is not in use
and in stand-by mode, you may
hear a small noise inside. This is
caused by the image stabilization
process and is not a malfunction.
• Do not turn off the operation
switch while copying or printing.
Make sure all copying or printing
has finished first.
• The machine might not produce
good copy images if condensation
forms inside as a result of rapid
temperature change.
• Do not open the covers of the machine while copying or printing. If
you do, misfeeds might occur.
• Do not move the machine during
copying or printing.
• If you operate the machine improperly or a machine failure occurs, settings might be lost. Be sure
to make a note of your machine
settings.
• The manufacturer shall not be liable for any loss or damage resulting from mechanical failure, loss of
settings, or use of the machine.
• Do not touch areas on or around
the fusing unit. These areas get hot.
• After making copies continuously,
the exposure glass may become
warm—this is not a malfunction.
