SOURCE: Waste Toner Full/ Not Install

Behind the little container for the waste toner there is a sensor that senses whether the toner basket is full or not. If the sensor itself is dirty, it can give a false reading. First try cleaning out the area under the container to see if the switch works. Also make sure the container is clean, because the sensor works by sight, so if it looks full because it's dirty, it will give a false reading. I have heard of people disabling that sensor in various ways, but that can get dangerous to the printer. I can't recall the details on that exact model, but I believe there is a diagnostic of some sort that can test that sensor to make sure it works right to begin with.

SOURCE: waste toner tank full/not install keep displaying

The sensor for the waste toner tank is dirty or defective. The toner sensor is on the right as you look at the panel just below the liquid crystal display. There is a bump in the clear plastic just below the circular right vent port, that's where the used toner pours in. When you clean out the toner cartridge there is some residue left that makes the sensor think it's still full. Take a piece of paper towel and a small screwdriver (I'm told a bent coat hanger will work, too) and clean the inside of the sensor window inside the used toner cartridge (w/ access through the toner port). It looks like a little raised groove on the right. Just wipe it until it's clear on the inside. The sensor can now see through the window and you should be okay. Otherwise, the sensor may need to be replaced by an authorized Samsung technician. Let me know how it works out!

SOURCE: waste toner tank

A few things can cause this.

The way the printer determines whether the waste tank is full is via 2 optical sensors, one on either side of the tank. You'll see a rounded bulge on one end of the tank - the sensors are on either side of that, when the tank is installed. Under normal operation, light passes through that and the printer reads it as meaning the tank is not full, until the tank fills far enough to fill that bulge, and thus block light and give a tank full reading.

If the tank gets too dirty, not enough light passes through and it gives false tank full readings. So the first thing to try is cleaning the tank with soap and water. Make sure that area is as clear as possible.

If that doesn't work, it has also been reported that the sensors themselves are unreliable. I am told Samsung will replace the sensor for free if it's been less than 3 years. If you call them, insist that it is the sensor that is the problem, or they will try to get you to replace the waste bin, at your expense, first: 1-800-726-7864.

Alternatively, you can remove the sensor from one side, and reattach it to the other side - putting the two sensors in contact so that they always read an empty waste tank. Do this at your own risk, however, as you will have to check the tank regularly and make sure it doesn't overflow. Doing this bypasses the sensor, so there is no longer any warning if your tank is overflowing.

Hope some of that helps you.

What does "replace waste toner box" mean?

Printers have waste ink/toner boxes/tanks, when they are full, you need to empty them and reset the warning notice. You may need to take it to a service centre if it is a proffesional model

I have a c652 biz hub keeps coming up waste toner box konika minolt printer

To replace the waste toner box, open the front door above the paper drawers. The waste toner box is on the left hand side (usually). Your supplier should have supplied an extra waste toner box. Slide out the 'full' toner box. Replace with an empty one. This should register that you have installed an empty waste toner box. If not, turn off the copier and after a minute or two, turn on the coper again. [If you want to be environmental friendly, the toner box has a small slide cover approximately 1-2cm long (usually on the upper face at the rear as you remove it). Place this end in a plastic bag, slide open this 'cover' and rotate the toner box 180° so this is facing down. Care needs to be taken to prevent the 'waste toner' from flying everywhere. Gently agitate the box until all the waste toner (a grey color) has spilled out. (Approximately 600-800gms) Carefully seal the bag and dispose. An industrial vacuum cleaner can be used to remove the residual toner, clean down the waste toner box with a soft rag and it is ready to re-use.]

DEAR SIR I HAVE PURCHASED IR 3300 RC MACHINE . I HAVE 2 PROBLEMS. 1. IT ALWAYS DISPLAYS REPLACE THE WASTE TONER . BUT THE WATER TONER CONTAINER IS EMPTY. THE REP SAYS THER IS A PROBLEM IN SENSOR ....

Hi,
regarding your first problem:
The waste toner container box neck must be always clean, because on the neck are two round dents, where optical sensor reads status. The permanent solution is to disconnect the sensor, his wires are above waste box ( white connector ).After disconnecting the sensor be sure to empty box every 60 000 to 100 000 copies.

Now the second problem:
Do you mean that paper cant be picked up? Does other paper sizes comes trough?
For start clean the pick up roller wich is locate inside the right door ( on top of the door ) in some cases covered with plastic cover.
Note: when you putt the paper in bypass, be sure to select correct paper size, paper type and from where to pull paper( bypass ).

If you want service manual write on [email protected]

Hope that helps!

Cannon b840,ink cartridege seems half full ,but fax comes through ist page perfect 2nd fuzzy,blank on all following pages

Sounds like the cartridge is empty. Your cartridge has a waste toner hopper that collects excess toner from being deposited on the page. The half full feeling might just be the weight of the waste toner.

I have a message that says "waste toner box almost full" I cannot find the waste toner box. can you tell me where it is? The copier is a Kyocera KM-8030. thank you Frances

After looking on the net if your printer is under warranty, you should call Kyocera Service Rappresentative or an Authorised Service Centre as Kyocera is not releasing how to empty or clear the waste toner box and if you do you will woid the warranty.

Waste Toner for GP200 series

The waste toner is collected inside the drum cartridge. It can be emptied by removing the drum cartridge assy and opening the opaque window and emptying into a large bag. The lines on your copies are probably a symptom of the drum being worn out, so replacement is probably a better option. The drum is good for 60,000 copies.
