In the first step of the replacement procedure, you must switch the Konica Minolta MagiColor 1680mf Color Laser Printer to the [Change Toner] mode by pressing the [Rotate Toner] button. Next, you must open the front cover of the laser printer, and then check if the exhausted toner cartridge is accessible. Please close the front cover and press the [Rotate Toner] button if the exhausted toner cartridge has not been moved to the replacement position. Please note that you can identify the toner cartridge by the color of the handle. After that, you must unlock the exhausted toner cartridge by pulling its handle down, and then pull the exhausted component out of the Konica Minolta MagiColor 1680mf Color Laser Printer. Now, you must take the new toner cartridge out of the protective bag, and then shake it at least ten times up and down to loosen the toner. In the next step of the replacement procedure, you must remove the protective cover from the toner roller, and then align the tabs on the underside of the new toner cartridge with the guides of the corresponding slot. Once the new toner cartridge is correctly aligned, you must insert it into the slot, and then lock the new component into place by pushing its handle towards the inside of the machine. Finally, you must close the front cover of the Konica Minolta MagiColor 1680mf Color Laser Printer, and then press the [Clear] button to reset the life counter for the newly installed toner cartridge.
