When a new TN1070 toner is installed in a DCP1610W rand DCP1510 printer, a reset gear should turn and trigger a switch to reset the toner counter.
Sometimes the toner counter doesn’t get reset and realigning the reset gear is a little bit too techy for most users. Here’s how to reset the toner cartridge on the printer controls:
- Make sure the machine is turned on.
- Make sure the machine’s cover is closed.
- Press Menu
- Press the Up/ Down arrow to find Machine Info and then press OK
- Press the Up/ Down arrow to find Reset Drum and then hold down OK for 5 seconds
- Don’t press the up arrow to reset the drum, instead press Start
- Press the Up arrow, and 00 will appear on the screen
- Once the printer reads Accepted , it should be ready to use
If you get the message “Printer is busy”, then switch the printer off and on
