Try removing and then reinstalling. If this happens since you changed the drum and toner, then the issue would be with the defective replacement. Way to test is to reinsert the old drum and toner and if this does not happen, then you know the issue is with the new supplies

SOURCE: OKI B6300 Drum problem

Hello, com_jedi. I would suggest you contact the OKI Customer Support line in order to address this issue. The phone number is 1-800-654-3282 (800-OKIDATA). For your model unit you would hit options 1 then 4 to get to mono support.

It is possible that you purchased a defective consumable and OKI warranties them for 90 after the date of purchase. If this is a new drum/toner it may need to be replaced to determine if it was a bad chip in the cartridge or if there is some other issue with the unit that is causing the error.

It is also possible there is a misalignment with the sensor that is located under the drum unit. A support tech can walk you through the troublehshooting as it would be a bit difficult to do here.

I hope this helps!

My okidata printer won't recognize the toner cartridge.

Did you remove all the packaging material from the cartridge? This can often times be overlooked in some models. Make sure the cartridge is for the same model. Finally you may have a defective cartridge.

Before you replace a drum unit, you should (with the top toner cartridge still in place) turn the unit upside down and gently shake the toner that is in the drum unit back into the toner cartridge. When you install toner on these printers, most of the toner falls into the drum unit. The only way you can "reset" the printer is to add more toner, because there is almost no toner in that new drum.

Replaced K toner and machine is telling me there is no toner in it.

There are sensors along the inside right wall that tell the unit if there is a K cartridge inserted. Usually what happens is that due to a toner spill, the sensor LED is covered with toner and or is bad . Hence it does not see the K cartridge. This happens mostly with the black or K cartridge. Get some compressed air and lightly shoot some into the hole that corresponds to the K cardtridge. Only in the hole, do not spray the air anywhere else in the printer.
If this does not clear it up, you would need to replaced the sensor board which is held in with 12 springs!
If I could be of further assistance, let me know. If this helps or solves the issue, please rate it.
Thanks, Joe
