Actually you are supposed to replace the whole container.
You can order this as part of your service contract just like toner, the cost would be included.

If you are shaking it out, be aware it is VERY flamable in such a fine powdered state.

try updating driver and maybe firmware

SOURCE: I HAVE A KONICA MINOLTA

unfortunately there is no work around for this. it would go on safe mode once an ink is out. there is a driver that would over ride the indicator but from what i know it is still experimental on some models

SOURCE: Waste bottle full...can i empty it and how??

I have done this for the Konica 5570 multiple times, you do not have to buy the new ones.

**Disclaimer** Following these instructions may expose you to fine particulate matter. We sometimes run into situations where customers just will not pay for a replacement waste bin. I am not 100% sure with Minolta but we do this with Lexmark printers all the time. Remove the waste bin and attach a plastic bag over the hole where the toner enters from the printer. Seal it as much as possible. Hold the toner bin so that the hole is facing down and tap it lightly. This should cause the toner to fall back out of the waste bin into the bag. When you have gotten as much out as possible, wait for the dust to settle and then pinch off the bag as you remove the bin. Seal the bag and dispose of. Use a dry cloth (swiffer)to wipe any excess toner from the bin. Put bin back in and restart the printer. This should give you some more life. If you get toner on yourself or clothes, rinse in cold water not hot. Hot water will bond the toner to your clothes.
