Replacing the Toner Cartridge
This section describes how to replace or handle the toner cartridge and 
precautions on storing it.
Contact the store where you purchased the printer to obtain replacement toner 
cartridge.
IMPORTANT
A warning message does not appear on your computer even if the toner cartridge is 
nearing the end of its life. The case where white streaks appear on printed paper in 
longitudinal direction, or printed paper comes out faint or uneven can be used to estimate 
when the toner cartridge will need to be replaced. When you are replacing the toner 
cartridge, be sure to use a toner cartridge designed for this printer.
NOTE
•The toner cartridge made for this printer (Canon Genuine Cartridge) is provided with two 
types of toner cartridges whose lifetimes are different from each other.
•The lifetime of the toner cartridge (Canon Genuine Cartridge) used in this printer is 
approximately 2,500 pages or approximately 6,000 pages. The page counts are on the 
basis of ISO/IEC 19752* when printing A4 size paper with the default print density 
setting. The level of toner consumption varies depending on the type of documents 
printed. If your average document contains a lot of graphics, tables, or charts, the life of 
the toner cartridge will be shorter as they consume more toner.
*  ISO/IEC 19752 is the global standard related to Method for the determination of toner cartridge yield for 
monochromatic electrophotographic printers and multi-function devices that may contain printer 
components issued by ISO (International Organization for Standardization).
•This section describes the procedure for replacing the toner cartridge using the 
illustration of the toner cartridge (Canon Genuine Cartridge) of which lifetime is 
approximately 2,500 pages.
Before Replacing the Toner Cartridge
Toner cartridges are consumable products. When there is not enough toner, this 
may cause the case where white streaks appear on the printed paper in 
longitudinal direction, or the printed paper comes out faint or uneven. If this type of 
symptom may occur, perform the following procedure before replacing the toner 
cartridge. You may be able to print for a while until the toner is used up completely.
