TOSHIBA E-STUDIO 282 TONER CARTRIDGE

From time to time the toner cartridge for the Toshiba E-Studio 282 will require replacing. The printer indicates this by displaying the INSTALL NEW TONER CARTRIDGE message, and also blinking a replace symbol. Due to the high quality nature of this printer, OEM parts are recommended for use with it.

Begin toner replacement by opening the front cover of the printer. A green lever will be seen inside the cover that unlocks the toner cartridge. Press this lever and carefully remove the cartridge from the machine. It is recommended to store it in a plastic bag or receptacle in case trace toner particles are still on it that could potentially stain clothing and furniture.

A new toner cartridge must be thoroughly shaken before it is installed to encourage distribution of the toner inside. Once shaken, the cartridge must be unsealed by pulling on the seal tab in the direction of the arrow found on it. After the unit is unsealed, it is ready to be positioned in the printer.

Insert the cartridge safely into the location of the old cartridge and it will snap into place. Next, lower the bypass tray for the machine by pulling its release lever and dropping it downward. The transfer cover must be opened next for the cleaning of the transfer charger wire.

The wire can be cleaned using the provided tool found in a small pocket next to the transfer unit. Be sure to clean the edge of the transfer separation unit, as well as the entire exposed wire. Once cleaning is finished, place the cleaning tool back into its receptacle for safe keeping.

Close the transfer cover and then raise the automatic duplexer to its original position. Lastly, close the front cover and the printer should become operational once again.
