    Xerox C7020 keeps saying "yellow toner needs replacing"

    I have a Versalink C7020 at a customers that has only done around 4600 colour and 2100 b&w,
    that says the yellow toner needs replacing for the second time since installing 8 weeks ago.

    The first time the message came on we sent a new cartridge up and machine has been working fine,
    the lady in there office kept the old one like i asked and when i popped in the cartridge was nearly full.

    She has just called us again to say it has run out of yellow toner again (and machine has stopped) i asked her to pull it out and reinstall,
    which she has done, again she said the bottle is full.

    Any ideas on this, ive had a look through Searchlite but found nothing of help

    being so new I guess you sent them genuine OEM toners?

    are the shaking them?
    removing the pull strip/tab?

    what are they printing?

      Yes genuine toner

      Yes "supposedly" shaken and strips removed (i installed the machine originally so original toner didnt even last its life)

      Mostly emails, word documents nothing with too heavy color

      cyan and magenta toners are +50% full

        Just a belated headsup, if any one else has the issue
        the toner coil was blocked with hard toner, removed and cleaned out all working fine now.
