The wast toner bin on the clx.3175 needs to be replace how do i remove the bin out the printer

My Samsung CLX-3175 printer will not print - the message is replace/install toner waste bin. I have emptied the waste bin of all the ink and still the message will not go. I have a stack of work to do and am stuck as to what to do next! Help please

you can clean it out.

open the cover and now remove the waist toner container (you say it is empty) check the conection to the drum unit sometimes if the waist toner is verry full there is a pille of toner closing this connection, now clean it and all the sorounding from the toner and mount the waist container back in his possition, close the front cover and try, it should work now.

Yes, consult the manual in this regard. As to the type that needs to be purchased.

Try removing the toner and reinstalling it before you purchase a new one. The toner may just need to be reinserted.

Thanks
Till next time!

the toner waste bin in in the toner bay on the left hand side. It simply pulls out. You can purchase a replacement or just dump all the old waste toner out. It can be a little messy. It works with an "electric eye"

Laser printers "print" by throwing toner onto a electrostatically-charged drum. The ink that sticks is then heated, and melts into the paper. The ink that does not stick falls into the "waste-bin".
Eventually, that waste-bin gets full, and needs to be removed, and emptied.

Usually with most samsung printers they have a toner waste bin in the printer. As you print, the waste toner dumps into this bin and fills up over time. Your printer manual may tell you where this is, but usually its right in the front of the printer when you open it up. It usually looks like a white or black plastic bin. There should be a plug on it that you can pop off and dump out the waste toner. After doing that put it back in your printer and it should get rid of the message.

Hope this helps :)

Wash it out with rubbing alcohol and let dry. Apparently there is a light sensor that will throw up this error if the bin is dirty.
