4. Setup (Installation)
Follow these steps to properly install your new toner cartridge:
- Preparation: Before installation, it is recommended to use a vacuum cleaner or a soft, dry cloth to clean any remaining toner or paper scraps inside the printer. Avoid blowing air into the printer, as this can spread toner dust.
- Shake the Cartridge: Take the new toner cartridge out of its packaging. Gently shake it horizontally 4-8 times to ensure the toner powder is evenly distributed within the cartridge.
- Remove Protection Buckles: Locate and remove the orange protection buckles on both sides of the toner cartridge. If there is any isolation paper, slowly pull out the black isolation paper in the direction indicated.
- Pull the Seal: Carefully pull the sealing strip evenly and straight until it is completely removed. Avoid tearing or breaking the seal. The length of the seal is approximately twice the length of the toner cartridge.
- Install into Printer: Open the printer's toner compartment. Align the toner cartridge with the guide rails inside the printer and push it smoothly until it clicks securely into place. Ensure it is fully seated.
