Operating Instructions

Once the TN319C Cyan Toner Cartridge is correctly installed, the Konica Minolta Bizhub C360 copier will automatically detect it and begin using it for printing. No further manual operation of the cartridge itself is required.

• Monitor Toner Levels: The copier's display panel or software interface will indicate the current toner levels. Replace the cartridge when the "Toner Low" or "Replace Toner" message appears for the cyan color.
• Print Quality: If print quality degrades (e.g., faded prints, streaks), it may indicate a low toner level or an issue with other printer components.

Maintenance

The TN319C toner cartridge itself requires minimal maintenance. Proper handling and storage are key to its longevity and performance.

• Storage: Store unused cartridges in their original sealed packaging in a cool, dry environment, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Disposal: Do not dispose of used toner cartridges in regular household waste. Many manufacturers and retailers offer recycling programs for empty toner cartridges. Please check with your local waste management facility or Konica Minolta for proper recycling options.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues after installing the TN319C Cyan Toner Cartridge, consider the following common problems and solutions:

• Copier Does Not Recognize Cartridge:
  • Ensure the cartridge is fully seated in its slot. Remove and reinsert it firmly.
  • Check for any remaining protective seals or tapes that might have been overlooked during installation.
  • Restart the copier.
• Faded or Streaky Prints:
  • The toner level may be low. Check the copier's display for toner status.
  • Gently remove the cartridge and shake it horizontally a few times to redistribute any remaining toner, then reinsert.
  • If the issue persists, the cartridge may be nearing the end of its life and require replacement.
  • Consult your Konica Minolta Bizhub C360 manual for instructions on cleaning the printer's internal components, such as the drum unit or fuser, as these can also affect print quality.
• Toner Leaks:
  • If you notice toner leaking, carefully remove the cartridge.
  • Clean any spilled toner with a dry cloth. Do not use water.
