Hello

This means your ink level is low but you can confirm this by doing the following;

.The Lexmark C500n uses powdered ink, called toner, like other laser printers. The printer creates a magnetic charge on the paper as it passes through the machine, forming text and images on the page. The printer then applies pressure and heat to the paper, fusing the powdered ink to the page so it will not smudge or run. At any time, you can check the amount of ink left in the printer's toner cartridge by printing a status page. This page will also show a tally of the number of pages printed by the machine, among other information.

Turn on the printer and let it warm up. Ensure the light next to "Ready" illuminates.

Press the "Go" button, or the button with the icon of the hand pressing a button. Use the arrow button on the printer's control panel to highlight "Test Menu," then press the button with the check mark.

Press the arrow button until you highlight "Status Page" on the printer's display panel. Wait as the printer generates a status page.

Retrieve the status page from the printer's output tray.

By doing this you will know the level of your toner.

I ran out of toner so I ordered a new black toner cartridge. It arrived today. I can not find the directions to replace it in the literature I have for the MC 2400 W. How do you replace the toner...

push rotate button until it get to black, pull the handle on the front of the toner and release/remove the old one. Line pegs up with slots and lock in place. close all compartment doors.

Bizhub C350 gives error code C-OF36 while making duplex copies . M achine will produce half a dozen copies, then return the error code.

that code means low toner density in the black developer unit so you either have a failed pwb mc board or a failed black toner motor
