Can you please tell us where the waster toner bottle is located on a lanier 2145; can't find it anywhere

it has not waster toner bottle on the machine, the waster toner is being recycled in the photo-conductor unit (PCU) so if the machine show replace the waster toner bottle just clean the PCU of the machine on the drum upper area

The boys at the office figured out how to get out and empty... Thanks for all your input... I had sent it on to them.

U14 - Toner waste bottle full. Replace the waste bottle (plastic box at the bottom middle) with a new one or try to empty it.

U14 is a user code for waste toner full.
Open front cover and you will see a clear plastic bottle at the bottom of the machine; lift this out and dispose carefully of waste toner (do not reuse). When fitting back into machine, make sure that inside of bottle is clean as the detection sensor looks through the bottle to see if it is empty and if toner is covering inside of bottle, the message will remain.

What kind of copier is it? On many of the Lanier color copiers, the waste toner bottle is located on the lower left side inside the front door.

Turn the copier off first. Pull the big front door open and turn the bottle with the oil to the left -- the waste toner bottle is the plastic gray tank behind that. Slide it out (carefully) and dump it in a plastic trash bag, then reinsert it.

If you have a different kind of copier, please specify the model and I'll tell you how to get to the waste toner bottle.

The waste toner tank may be full. Please open the front cover( where the toner bottles are located).
You will find a transparent "L " shaped box is the waste toner tank.
You may pull it out and replace it.

Open the machine and to the right under the drum you should see the the black powder (toner) going down into container the right lower side  cover must come off. probably a service call will be needed

Hello sir; I believed you talking about LD045, am I right? In this model it doesn't have waste toner bottle, the only place you can clean is imaging transfer unit, after you cleanup the message will be disappear.

Here's what I did.

Emptied the waste toner cartridge. Left it out of the machine. Held the microswitch (located to the right of the optical sensors) in the "cartridge in" position with a paperclip. Printed one document. Inserted the waste toner cartridge. Error now gone!

GCC.

Was the toner bottle removed before you moved the machine?
