Redistributing toner When the toner cartridge is near the end of its life: • White streaks or light printing occurs and/or density variation side to side. • The Status LED blinks red. The toner-related message saying that the toner is low may appear on the display. • The computer's Samsung Printing Status program window appears on the computer telling you which cartridge is low on toner (see "Using Samsung Printer Status" on page 173). If this happens, you can temporarily improve print quality by redistributing the remaining toner in the cartridge. In some cases, white streaks or light printing will still occur even after you have redistributed the toner. IlIllustrations in this user's guide may differ from your machine depending on the model and options installed. Check your machine type (see "Front view" on page 21). • To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose it to light for more than a few minutes. Cover it with a piece of paper, if necessary. • Do not touch the green area of the toner cartridge. Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching this area. • Do not use sharp objects such as a knife or scissors to open the toner cartridge package. They might scratch the drum of the cartridge. • If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and wash clothing in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric. 9. Troubleshooting 185

9. Troubleshooting

Redistributing toner

When the toner cartridge is near the end of its life:

•

White streaks or light printing occurs and/or density variation side to side.

•

The

Status

LED blinks red. The toner-related message saying that the toner is low may appear on the display.

•

The computer’s Samsung Printing Status program window appears on the computer telling you which cartridge is low on toner (see "Using Samsung Printer

Status" on page 173).

If this happens, you can temporarily improve print quality by redistributing the remaining toner in the cartridge. In some cases, white streaks or light printing will still

occur even after you have redistributed the toner.

IlIllustrations in this user’s guide may differ from your machine depending on the model and options installed. Check your machine type (see "Front view" on page

21).

•

To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose it to light for more than a few minutes. Cover it with a piece of paper, if necessary.

•

Do not touch the green area of the toner cartridge. Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching this area.

•

Do not use sharp objects such as a knife or scissors to open the toner cartridge package. They might scratch the drum of the cartridge.

•

If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and wash clothing in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric.
