Samsung ML-2510 Laser

orange light means that one of the printer cartridge is getting finished. The time it gets red that menas its totally empty.

The laser printer "shouldn't" need a cooling period from printing. Sounds like you do a good deal of printing with it,. Depending upon the quality of the printer you may need to break down the number of pages per print and see if that works.,. however, my best guess is that it needs a real good and perhaps regular cleaning...

yes

Based on your error, the manual says that your toner is low or empty.

Thanks aid

try to use the Generic drivers and not the Samsung ML driver for your model. In the drivers list type in GEN and it'll show up.

Depending on how long you have had this , it might be time for a new one. If its still under warranty, rather send it back as it could be a problem inside.

First do a couple of test.
Turn the Printer off and back on?
Reinstall the software for the printer?
Paper **** under the toner drum? Dont touch the green drum!!!
Pull toner out and reinsert
On the top side above the toner were the paper feed's after printing. Is there a paper jam?
Did you replace the toner with a "compatible" toner? If so the printer does not recognize the cartridge thus another reason for the red light?

if you have had your ML 2510 for longer than 2 years and 4 Toners. This is a good time to invest in another ML 2510 Printer. They are cheap and dont break up the bank's money printer to get.

I hope you find help with this.

Maybe the toner is low... According to the manual, a blinking red light:

• A minor error is occurring and
the printer is waiting for the error
to be cleared. When the problem
is cleared, the printer resumes
printing.
• The toner cartridge is low. Order
a new toner cartridge. You can
temporarily improve print quality
by redistributing the toner. See
page 8.3.
• The toner is totally exhausted.
Remove the old toner cartridge
and install a new one. See page
8.4.
• The toner cartridge reached the
end of its life.

Dear sir; That's very difficult to tell you detail how to take apart the parts, but I can teach you a easy way and tricky way, this cause you problem is paper pick-up roller, right above the paper tray. therefor you have move out the tray , remove the toner ctg. flip machine over (bottom up) then you will see the roller very clear, clean up with rubber rejuvenator, try it out, and please let me know how does it work, good luck! HAVE A HAPPY HOLIDAY !!!

no, I have paper....the red-light on the top keeps blinking.....

I have used akums-razor to determine the answer.....

sol: push and hold down the orange button for 3-4 secs and wait for a print-out. It will give you the staus of the toner cartdg. MINE REPORTS A LOWWWW LEVEL. ( the orig. cartridge gives the user only about 1000 sheets and mine is around 783. This is why I think the light came on to tell me to jump in my Lexus, get down to Best Buy, and get another ( more capacity) new cartridge....
cool, huh?:>))))
