you need to replace the toner cartridge if you open the front an take the cartridge out give it a shake to see how much is left in ..

Open front cover,then pull out toner and in the middle you will see a tiny fuse. Take it out and put a new one in. Put back toner,close everything and let it run.

I have a feeling that it is a re-manufactured or compatible cartridge??
There is a fuse that needs to be replaced on this unit. it blows when the cartridge is installed to reset the machine. If the fuse has not been replaced or is defective the machine will not recognize the new unit.

Replace the toner cart. Toner save mode only uses a little less toner while printing.

Turn off the Machine for safety.
- Try to double check if the toner cartridge is properly installed
- Clean it also if dusty
- Make sure he sensor have no paper or dust.
