This chapter describes basic maintenance tasks you can perform on the 
printer. You can replace the following component according to the 
printer ’s display:
• Toner Kits
• Waste Toner Box
Also, the following parts need periodic cleaning:
• Paper Transfer Unit
Toner Container Replacement
The toner container in the printer should be replaced as soon as the 
message display shows Toner low or soon after. If you continue to use 
the printer, eventually the toner supply will be exhausted at which point 
the printer will stop printing and the Replace toner C,M,Y,K message 
will be shown instructing you to install a new toner kit.
Frequency of Toner Container Replacement
The life of the toner containers depends on the amount of toner required 
to accomplish your printing jobs. According to ISO/IEC 19798 and 
EcoPrint switched off the toner container can print as follows (A4/Letter 
paper is assumed):
FS-C5150DN
FS-C5250DN
Note  Information Collection on Memory Chips - The memory 
chip attached to the toner container is designed to improve 
convenience for the end user; to support the recycling operation 
of empty toner containers; and to gather information to support 
new product planning and development. The information 
gathered is anonymous - it cannot be associated to any specific 
individual and the data is intended to be used anonymously.
