TN-630 660 Toner Reset Instruction

 

Description:

The reset gear on the toner cartridge did not properly contact and reset the New Toner Sensor within the printer. The reset gear will operate only once after the toner cartridge is installed and the position of the gear cannot be reset after installation. To reset the Toner Life Display, a manual reset procedure must be performed. 

Solution:

The following steps will need to be performed to manually reset the toner life.

2. The printer screen should read “front cover is open”.
3. Press the “clear” button on the printer’s front panel.
4. Printer will say “Replace Drum?”
5. Here do not press 1 but instead type in “*00″ on the keypad. Star zero zero.
6. The screen will say “Accepted”. Close the door and it will reset the low toner message.

6. Press the GO button 5 times.
