19 Setting Up the Color LaserWriter 12/600 PS
Installing the toner cartridges
You’ll find four toner cartridges in the bottom of the printer setup kit. Each
toner cartridge contains the dry plastic powder that the printer uses instead
of ink. The first time you install the toner cartridges, follow the steps given
here. After that, each time you install a cartridge, follow the instructions in
Chapter 10. (Instructions also come with replacement toner cartridges.)
Cartridge life varies, depending on the kind of printing you do. If you use the
printer to produce more graphic images than text, you may need to change
cartridges more often. (For product specifications, see Appendix A.)
