3 month old machine, low print usage, showed "Replace Toner". Replaced with Samsung cartridge but still showing Toner Empty message. Replaced with another new Samsung toner, but message will not go away. What can we do?

display and press OK.
2 Press the scroll buttons until Maintenance appears and press OK.
3 Press the scroll buttons until CLR Empty MSG. appears and press
OK.
4 Select On and press OK.
5 Now the Toner Low Replace Toner message does not appear but
the Replace Toner message will remain for reminding you that the
new cartridge needs to be installed for quality.

replace fuse chip in toner

SOLVED IT!
- PROBLEM: I'm using a refilled toner / NOT original Samsung (supplier: Peach, Switzerland)
- SOLUTION: 1. Remove the toner 2. Simply put a tape over the four metal contacts on the backside of the toner 3. Insert the toner
- It will now print, the printer says "low toner" & the LED status light is red - just ignore! It still work well....
- EXPLANATION: the chip (behind the four contacts) seems not be needed. I used a compatible 3rd party toner (Peach, Switzerland)
- Observation: The refilled toner worked well for the first 2-3 weeks, then suddenly I had this error message.

indicates that the toner cartridge is becoming empty and needs replacement.

follow cartridge replacement procedure for this device.

to maybe get a few pages from the old cartridge.
remove it and give is a gentle shake from side to side. and then replace it.
this is not a fix but may give you a few more pages printing.

recommended to use samsung recommended replacement cartridge.


I hope this was helpful.

If the Toner Low/Empty message does not automatically clear when a new cartridge is installed, use the following to clear the message manually:
1.Press MENU # 1 9 3 4. The machine should display TECH.
2.Press MENU, and ENTER. The machine should display TECH Mode.
3.Press the left arrow < once. The machine will show NEW CARTRIDGE.
4.Press ENTER, the machine will show YES.
5.Press ENTER, there should not be any Toner Low/Empty message.
6.Exit TECH MODE, press MENU # 1 9 3 4. The machine will no longer display TECH.
If Toner Low/Empty message continues, there may be a problem with the toner cartridge or the machine.

Ignoring the Toner Empty Message

message and stops printing.
You can set the machine to ignore the message when it displays and to
continue printing the pages.

2 Press the scroll button (�� or ��) until “Ignore Toner” appears on the
bottom line and press Enter.
3 Press the Scroll button (�� or ��) to select “On” or “Off.”
Select “On” to ignore the Toner Empty message.

default setting.

My laser Printer shows a message and do not prints any document. When i try to print any document. My printer shows a message "Toner Exhausted, Replace Toner". Plz tell me how can i solve my this printer's solution.

My good friend:

The only reason why your unit stops printin faxes is because the toner cartridge is nearly empty. Th e unit will then try to conserve the remaining toner for printing and copying. Follow this steps to program the unit to print all faxes, even with toner low:

When the toner cartridge is nearly empty, the machine shows
the “[Toner Empty]” message and continues printing except
incoming faxes. In this case, incoming faxes are saved in
memory.
However, you can set the machine to print incoming faxes, even
though print quality is not optimal.
1 Press Menu until “Machine Setup” appears on the display.
2 Press the scroll button ( or ) until “Ignore Toner”
appears on the bottom line and press Enter.
3 Press the Scroll button ( or ) to select “On” or “Off”.
Select “On” to ignore the [Toner Empty] message.
Select “Off” to stop printing incoming faxes when the
message appears. This is the default setting.
4 Press Enter to save the selection.
5 To return to Standby mode, press Stop/Clear.

Replace Toner with gen cartridge.

 

Or Take cartridge back as faulty after checking that it was opened and installed correctly.

 

Check display on printer for indications that maybe it needs one of the 3 colour toners indicators are Y,C or M

 

K is black

Are yo using genuine Minolta toner? Some generic toners do not replace the chip on the cartridge which tell the machine the toner levels. If this is not the case let me know. John A.
