Maintaining the printer

Periodically, certain tasks are required to maintain optimum print quality.

Storing supplies

Choose a cool, clean storage area for the printer supplies. Store supplies right side up in their original packing until you

are ready to use them.

Do not expose supplies to:

•Direct sunlight

•Temperatures above 35°C (95°F)

•High humidity above 80%

•Salty air

•Corrosive gases

•Heavy dust

Checking the status of supplies

A message appears on the display when a replacement supply item is needed or when maintenance is required.

You can check the status of printer supplies anytime using:

•The control panel menus—See the Menus and Messages Guide for a listing of menus and supply status messages.

•The IP address of a network printer—Type the IP address of a network printer in the address bar of any browser

(ex: 192.264.26.3). Supply status is usually available on the initial screen.

Conserving supplies

There are some settings that you can change from the control panel that will help you to conserve toner and paper.

For more information, see the Supplies menu, Quality menu, and Finishing menu in the Menus and Messages Guide.

If you need to print several copies, you can conserve supplies by printing the first copy and checking it for accuracy

before printing the remaining copies. For more information, see the User’s Guide.

Ordering supplies

To order supplies in the U.S., contact Lexmark at 1-800-539-6275 for information about Lexmark authorized supplies

dealers in your area. In other countries or regions, visit the Lexmark Web Site at www.lexmark.com or contact the place

you purchased the printer.

Note: All life estimates for printer supplies assume printing on letter‑ or A4‑size plain paper.

Ordering toner cartridges

When 88 Cyan cartridge low, 88 Magenta cartridge low, 88 Yellow cartridge low, or 88

Black cartridge low appears on the control panel or when the print becomes faded, first try to extend the life

of the specified cartridge:

1Remove the specified toner cartridge.

2Rotate the toner cartridge as shown, and firmly shake the cartridge up and down several times to redistribute the

toner toward the front of the toner cartridge.

3Reinsert the toner cartridge to continue printing.

4Repeat this procedure multiple times until printed text and graphics remain faded.

Note: Several hundred pages may be printed after one of the messages first appears.

Once the printed text and graphics remain faded, replace the specified toner cartridge.
