MF731Cdw low tone message

RedBadger

My printer has been working like a champ, however the toners are now low (30%) and I get a message to prepare new toner. I normally use black the most and so just purchased the High capacity black toner and installed it.  How do I bypass the message for the other toners?  I don't like wasting 30%, and am in the middle of a very important paper.  ANY HELP would be appreciated.

Hi RedBadger.

 

The MF731Cdw's toner status may be disabled using the following menu path:

 

<Menu>  <Management Settings>  <Device Management>  <Display Consumables Information (RUI/Toner Status)>  Specify the settings

I followed your directions but only had the option to turn on or off the setting. and when I hit apply, nothign changed. I still get the message to prtepare new toner.  

 

 

Hi RedBadger.


If that setting didn't correct the alert, try adjusting the setting for toner alert timing.

 

<Menu>  <Preferences>  <Display Settings>  <Display Timing for Cart. Prep.>  Select <Off> in <Auto>  Enter toner level in <Custom>  <Apply>  

 

That should affect the alert on both the printer and the computer or mobile device (if one is used with the printer).
