Tips on removing the jammed paper  
Note the following points in removing the jammed paper.  
Remove the jammed paper carefully so as not to tear it.  
To avoid tearing the jammed paper, remove the paper slowly with both hands. Using force may tear the paper, making it  
more difficult to remove. See also that no pieces of torn paper are left inside the equipment.  
When the paper jam sign remains after removing the jammed paper;  
Depending on the timing of the occurrence, no jammed paper may be found where the paper jam sign indicates. If the  
sign does not disappear after you have removed the jammed paper, follow the steps as instructed on the touch panel.  
Do not touch the fuser unit or the metal portion around it.  
Do not touch the fuser unit or the metal portion around it when you remove  
the paper jammed in the right side of the equipment. This could burn you or  
the shock could cause you to get your hand injured in the machine.  
Do not touch the photoconductive drum.  
When you remove the paper jammed in the right side of the equipment, be  
sure not to touch the photoconductive drum. This could stain copy images.

Clearing paper jams caused by a wrong paper size setting  
Paper jams occur when there is a mismatch between the size of the paper in a drawer or the bypass tray and the size  
registered for the corresponding drawer or the bypass tray in the equipment. The message “Check paper size setting on  
control panel for drawer N” or “Check paper size setting on control panel for Bypass” appears on the touch panel.  
In this case, just clearing the jammed paper does not prevent another paper jam. Be sure to follow the procedure below.  
During the operation, the guidance for clearing the paper jam on the touch panel is not displayed. Take notes of the  
following before operation: where the paper jam occurred and for which drawer the paper size setting is incorrectly  
registered.  
Troubleshooting differs depending on how the paper jam has occurred:

Replacing a Toner Cartridge

following the procedure below when you see this message.  
To assure optimal printing performance, we recommend that you use only genuine TOSHIBA toner cartridges.

Recommended toner cartridges  
To assure optimal printing performance, we recommend that you use only genuine TOSHIBA toner cartridges.  
If you use a TOSHIBA-recommended toner cartridge, you can utilize the following three functions of this equipment:  
Cartridge detecting function: This function checks if the toner cartridge is correctly installed and notifies you if it is  
not.  
Toner remaining check function: This function notifies you when there is little toner remaining in the cartridge, as  
well as notifying your authorized service representative automatically by remote service.  
Image quality optimization function: This function controls image quality according to the characteristics of the toner  
to be used and enables you to print images of an optimal quality.  
If you are using a toner cartridge other than the one we recommend, the equipment may not be able to detect whether  
it is installed or not. Therefore, even if the toner cartridge is correctly installed, the error message “TONER NOT  
RECOGNIZED” appears on the touch panel and printing may not be performed. You may also not be able to utilize the  
image quality optimization function, the toner remaining check function, and the remote service function which notifies  
your service representative automatically.  
If you are using a toner cartridge other than the one we recommend and find the cartridge detection function  
inconvenient, please contact your service representative. The cartridge detecting function set by default can be  
canceled. Remember once this function has been canceled, you will not be able to utilize the three functions  
mentioned above even if you change the cartridge to the one we recommend.  
Never attempt to incinerate toner cartridges.  
Dispose of used toner cartridges in accordance with local regulations.  
Some toner remains in the toner cartridge while the message “Toner near Empty” is displayed. Although you can  
replace the toner cartridge with a new one, make sure you follow the procedure
