HP LaserJet Toner Replacement Instructions
Before replacing your toner cartridge with a new one, take note of the following:
- Ensure that your printer is on.
- Wear gloves and open the toner cartridge over a sink or garbage can to avoid any mess in case of a powder leak.
- Remove the black paper and pull out the seal before inserting the toner cartridge into the printer.
Tips for Using Non-HP Toner Cartridge In HP Printers
Because original HP toner cartridges and the original chip that measures ink level are recycled by third-party manufacturers, using non-HP toner cartridges results in non-recognition or low ink error messages. With that said, the printer will recognize your new third-party toner cartridge as an empty or low-ink cartridge when you install it, which is the condition of the cartridge prior to recycling.
If you use non-OEM toner cartridges in your printer, you will most likely receive an error message on your computer screen. If this occurs, follow the steps below to get your HP printer to accept replacement HP 58A and 58AX black toner cartridges, as well as replacement HP 89A, 89X, and 89Y black toner cartridges.
1. Tip for Error Message: "Memory error on indicated cartridges" or "Event code: 10.00.00"
