REQUIRED FOR A SUCCESSFUL REFILL:

 Toner

 1 funnel cap

General Refilling Procedures:

Using your thumb, lift up the black plastic tab so that it unlocks from the cartridge

body. Rotate the entire black piece toward you. This will reveal a toner filling port.

Before opening the bottle of toner, turn it upside down and tap it on a table to loosen the

toner and allow it to flow freely. Remove the cap and pull the seal off the bottle. Attach

the funnel cap making to sure it is on tightly. Tilt the funnel cap toward the filling hole

and insert it into the hole. If the toner stops flowing before the cartridge is full, simply

remove the toner, close the cap, turn the bottle upside down and tap it on a table. Once

the cartridge is full, twist the entire black plastic piece away from you until the tab

locks back in place.

General Refilling Procedures:

Use a Flat head screwdriver to pop out the large plastic plug found on the side of the

side of the cartridge.

IMPORTANT: You must dispose of any original toner in the cartridge as much as

possible before refilling. Dispose of toner properly into a trash can, or use a vacuum

with a hose for best results (if possible).

Installing Reset Gear on Starter Cartridges

Using the illustration below as a guide, remove the 3 screws

indicated with red arrows. Once the screws have been removed,

carefully and gently detach the side panel.

The picture below shows how the gear

should be set once it has been placed within

the panel. To insert the gear in this panel,

slide the flag (which is the longest part of the

gear) through the right side opening (green

arrow on right side) and then slide the gear to

the left. Once you have done this, hold the

flag in place and place the panel back on the

cartridge. Place the screws back in place and

your cartridge is ready to be used.

Installing the Reset Gear

Some of the starter cartridges don’t contain reset gears, or even a panel that allows

one to be installed. For this we have added two illustrations on the right. When you

purchase the reset gear, it may come with a new side panel to replace the old one with

(this is only for starter cartridges). The illustrations to the right show how the cartridge

may look without the gear, and how it should look once its installed.

If you are using a cartridge other than a starter cartridge (a cartridge that didn’t come

with the printer), then you only need to reset the gear. Putting it in the same position

as shown in the picture to the right (the illustration with the gear already on the

need to make adjustments to the plug so that nothing stands out or

bulges out once its inserted.

5. After you have made the necessary adjustments, use a small piece of

duct tape or electrical tape to help hold down the silicon plug. You

will want to make sure this area is flat to the surrounding surface. You

can also use a small allen screw to plug the hole if needed. (This is

very important since this is part of the area that will slide into the

cartridge slot in the printer. If this area bulges out to far, it can pull

off the area you just sealed and cause the cartridge to leak)
