      These customer will leave the waste box out all together if you block the sensor with paper. I have done that until i saw the damage that will do.
      Whatever

            Does the waste toner box life need to be reset on control panel?

              No. This one is very simple. One sensor to check for toner overflow. and one to check if the box is set.
              Whatever

                Oops and rotation sensor.

                That happened on the "e" range where the machine does not even stop if you remove the box. No detection at all.
                Whatever

                  The correct solution is to Replace the box not empty it.

                    Surely you can reuse them?

                      Sure, just like you can you use after market toner; or poorly cut or humid paper; but there are consequences to your actions. You get what you pay for, cutting corners only leads to bigger issues down the road. In my 9yrs of experience it is Always better to do it right the first time then have to go back and re-do it. What is your time worth to you? Surely more than that inexpensive waste toner box....

                        There are three ways that KM detects waste toner:
                        1) the window: There is no easy way to get to the window to clean it. If you get water in there you will end up with a disaster.
                        2) the flag: There is a flag that blocks a photointerrupter to identify the presence of the bottle. Customers routinely break this off.
                        3) the agitation sensor: If the waste toner agitator cannot rotate, you'll get a waste bottle indication. You need to be able to rotate the agitator manually.

                        Don't waste your time. Encourage the enduser to buy waste bottles. =^..^=
                        If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
                        1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
                        2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
                        3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
                        4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
                        5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

                          I saw the 2 sensors on the front left bottom of machine. The photointerruptor for the window and the one the flag that turns and engages sensor. I did not see a third which is probably why still same problem. Customer told me she emptied waste and had to do it 4 times as there was still toner in container. I am thinking customer prpbsly broke the flag for sensor that detects container though i missed the sensor. Is it front right side?
                          i can check the parts and service manual when i get back in morning. Not familiar with thus machine. Have done several calls on it. Thanks to all for your info and help. I will post results when call is finished. Frank

                            I have reused the same waste box on a C360 probably 15 times.

                            Imagine a landfill.

                              I only see 2 sensors over to the left. One is ps23 which I guess is the rotation sensor which sees the rotating flag at bottom of waste box. the other sensor is a few inches away and higher . it is ps54 which sees window on waste box. I did not see any other sensors. This the the black and white 552 NOT the color C552. Any additional help is appreciated very much. Frank
