    e355 how to disable "TONER NOT RECOGNIZE"

    Is there a way to disable this "TONER NOT RECOGNIZE" function.

    our unit is Asian region and we need to set the country code to US to accommodate all US paper sizes and also the RADF but the "TONER NOT RECOGNIZE" appears when we do this.

    I tried to set 08-499 as mentioned in a similar thread but it does not work.

    i do appreciate any pointers and thanks in advance.

    I think if you check in User Function,you will find an option to turn off this option.

          thanks. but this just disable the Toner Near Empty message. The TONER NOT RECOGNIZE still appears when we set country code to US. i know it has something to do with the toner chip.

            Are you using OEM toner? The new machines Say Toner not recognized, while the older ones said use genuine toshiba toner.
            If using OEM toner, jig the front door and see if the toner drive is stalling. should spin smooth with no jerking.

              sorry for the mixup. i was referring to Model e242 not the e355. yes we are using original toners. the unit is asia version and it works fine using A4 size paper. but when we try to change the country code settings to US so we can use LT and LG papers, the message "TONER NOT RECOGNIZE" appears and unit is not operable. will only operate if the country setting is set to Asia. i think this has something to do with the toner chip. can this be disabled?

                  To solve this problem,you must install firmware for your region.
                  Asia,Usa or Europe.

                    sorry but your problem is not the same as mine. in your case to use the toner D, you need to replace the COUPL-BTL-E 6LA68867200 with COUPL-BTL-D 6LA68867300.

                          Switch the ends of the toner cartridge to the toshiba ones or from type d to e (or the other way around). Only way i can think of gettin the message away. If you disconnect the micro switch (on the toner unit) it will still give the same message. The end of the toners just screw off (i know this thanks to some of my lovely customers).
                          It didn't say that I couldn't do it in the manual.

                            Also note that the ends have left-handed threads...
