    If this machine is throwing a error saying the waste toner sensor faulty it is not

    it is sensor pi11 the one on the cleaning assembly shutter it gets coated in toner and shows this error

    clean the sensor and you will be fine

      hi its saying replace waste container the end user installed the yellow toner incorrectly and it leaked badly, they then tired to vacuum it and it shorted the sensor so all it keeps saying is "install waste container"

        There is a spring loaded sleeve with a flag around the waste toner auger. When the bottle is present it will push the sleeve thereby unblocking PS11.

        First=Verify the position of the PS11 and the auger open close shutter

        PS11 Waste toner case detection (absent) sensor WG8-5772-000
