The indications of a lot number are the same as those of the developer cartridge.
After detecting near end, when the toner density is lowered to the specified level or lower and the toner sensor detects toner LOW continuously for a certain time, it is judged as toner end.
•When the developer (developer cartridge)/drum counter exceeds the specified number of sheets.
•When the rpm of the developer cartridge/drum cartridge exceeds the specified number.
In an actual use, in the correction operation and the warm-up operation as well as the output operation, the developer cartridge and the drum rotate idly.
If the correction operation and the warm-up operation are made frequently, idle rotations of the developer cartridge and the drum are increased accordingly.
Because of these factors, the consumption degree of the developer cartridge and the drum cartridge cannot be determined only with the print quantity. When, therefore, the number of rotations of the cartridge exceeds the specified level, it is judged as life end.

2)Select the tray with A4 (11" x 8.5") paper in it.
3)Press [EXECUTE] key.
The check pattern is printed out.
4)Check the printed image for any skew.
There are following two methods of checking the image for any skew (right angle).
Method 1:
Measure the length of the diagonal lines of the rectangle print pattern. Check the difference in the length of the diagonal lines for judgment of good or no good
Method 2:
Compare the right angle of vertical side/horizontal side of the rectangle print pattern and the right angle sides of A4 (11" x 8.5") paper for judgment of good or no good.
(NOTE)
In the case of Method 2, the right angle of paper to be used may not be exact. Be sure to check the right angle of paper to be used in advance.
