Toshiba 282 Toner won't load

If your Toshiba e-Studio 3555c is not recognizing your new yellow toner cartridge, there are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:

1. Make sure that the toner cartridge is properly installed. Remove the toner cartridge and reinsert it, making sure that it is securely in place.
2. Check the toner cartridge for any signs of damage or wear. If the toner cartridge is damaged, it will need to be replaced.
3. Clean the contacts on the toner cartridge and in the printer. Over time, the contacts can become dirty or corroded, which can interfere with communication between the toner cartridge and the printer.
4. Try a different yellow toner cartridge. It is possible that the toner cartridge you are using is defective or incompatible with your printer.
5. Restart your printer. Sometimes, simply restarting the printer can help to resolve communication issues between the toner cartridge and the printer.

If none of these steps resolve the issue, it is possible that there is a problem with the printer's toner sensor or other hardware components. In this case, it may be necessary to contact a professional printer technician to diagnose and fix the issue.

Did you purchase a new OEM HP toner or a refilled or remanufactured toner. It is possible that the chip is bad on the cartridge in which case if it is a true HP cartridge have them replace it. If you purchased 3rd party go after the vendor to replace it.

Hi,
maybe the roner cartridge you inserted is not supported by Toshiba e-Studio 170f. This may be one of the reasons that the machine can't recognize the toner cartridge.
Reinstall the toner cartridge that you have. If that doesn't fix the issue try to replace the toner cartridge with new one.
If you continue experiencing this issue contact your technical support team.

Well... Are you sure that the bottle are spinning?
You say that the cap on the cartridge (or the correct name PCU Unit) are clear. The question is: Is there toner? It is full? Because if you do not see toner in that cap is because nothing is getting there. So, or the bottle are not spinning or the clutch is faulty.
If you are sure that the bottle are spinning you probably have a faulty TD sensor. This sensor measures the amount of toner in the Development Unit.
Sorry... but The best help i can give you is to call a technician to see it.
See you!

Remove the toner cartridge from the printer and shake it. Does it have toner in it? Can you hear anything or does it feel heavy enough to believe that it is not empty?

Shaking also resituates the toner in the cartridge.

Turn the printer off. Put the toner cartridge back in it. Disconnect the printer from the computer and unplug the power supply for about 2 minutes. Plug the power back in first but dont turn it on yet. Connect to the computer and then turn the printer on. See if this gets rid of your error code.

If it doesnt get rid of the code, then replace the toner cartridge.

The problem is that the printer is not registering any toner inside the cartridge although the computer chip on the cartridge is saying that it is fairly new and should not be empty yet. When this happens, there is no other choice but to replace it.

Yes, reset chips really work on laser printer cartridges, if you have a know good source for the chips and if you know what your doing, you can't put a new chip on an old cartridge, the chip is what registeres how may prints you will get out of the cartridge if you put a new chip on an old or 1/2 empty cartridge of course it will say it's full but then try and print.It will register as a full cartridge but it can only print with the amount of toner that is actually left in the cartridge, be careful there are alot of remanufactures out there that don't put new chips on or that do but don't fill the cartridge full, or replace all the wipers and drums, they just dump some toner in and say here you go, Only buy your remanufactured cartridges from a reputable company, do your research on them first or you'll be sorry

have you replaced the toner cartridge?
If the machine sounds like it is "cycling" then the toner may have run out and for some reason the toner light has not come on.

there is a sensor above the coloer developer unit clean it or change the sensor

hi when the copiers shows that need toner it is becouse there is no toner in the mix of developer, this is caused by a wrong toner in the machine, check that the toner is the one the machine use there are few copiers like lanier that seems to use the same cartridge but change the gear that turns the toner in the machine, move manually the gear in the cartridge by looking that the toner actually it is ok, activate the motor that moves the toner cartridge and check thatis is moving, also check the gears on the developing unit becouse if any of them dont move the toner never get the sensor of the developer unit and shows the signal of lack of toner

When adding toner to the developer unit, it will load from the toner. So, if toner is empty, it will ask for replacement. Normally u can hear noise from the toner when loading.
