Most of the times the waste toner sensor is covered with toner, so the machine thinks the waste toner is full. You can switch this message off by setting SP2-960 to 0. This disables the toner overflow sensor.

The above photo's are not where the waste toner catch is.

Again open the right hand side, on the duplex unit you have the transfer assembly, remove the transfer belt off the assembly, you will then find 3 screws which are underneath the transfer belt assembly you take off. Vacuum the cavity of the transfer unit housing, done waste toner is empty
