KBT Ricoh toner cartridges use genuine Japanese toner, ensuring stable printing without damaging your printer.
2. Practical Tips for Extending the Life of Toner Cartridges
Choose the Right Print Mode:
Use “Economy Mode” for general documents to conserve toner; switch to “High Quality Mode” for important documents.
Avoid Frequent Power On and Off:
Each time the machine is turned on, it will perform a self-test and consume a small amount of toner powder. If not used for extended periods, enable “Sleep Mode.”
Clean the Waste Toner Container Regularly:
Waste toner accumulation can affect print quality. We recommend you to clean the waste toner after every 2-3 toner cartridge changes (requires professional assistance).
3. Toner Cartridge Replacement Procedures
Step 1: Enter Replacement Mode
Open the machine’s front cover. On the control panel, select “Replace Toner” → Select the color to be replaced (C/M/Y/K).
Step 2: Remove the Old Toner Cartridge
Press the release button on the corresponding toner cartridge and pull it out horizontally (be careful not to touch the chip contacts).
Step 3: Install the New Toner Cartridge
Remove the protective seal on the new toner cartridge and insert it horizontally into the corresponding slot. Installation is complete when you hear a click.
Step 4: Reset the counter
Close the front cover. Some models require you to confirm “Toner Cartridge Replaced” on the front panel, or manually reset the toner counter.
Conclusion:
The Ricoh MPC5000’s color output relies on high-quality toner cartridges. Proper selection and maintenance not only improves print quality but also reduces long-term costs. If this guide is helpful, please share it with your colleagues or friends, thanks!
