    5030 toner waste bottle problem

    The machine periodically comes up with a message to replace the toner waste bottle, but the bottle is no where near full. Installing a new toner waste bottle does not clear the message. The only way I have been able to get the message to clear is to push in the silver piece (the piece the top of the waste bottle fits into). When this silver piece is pushed in, the pathway that the toner dumps through opens. While keeping that silver piece pushed in, i then bump the loose toner out before installing a waste bottle. What could be tha cause of this and is there some type of fix?
    I want to choke the axxhole who designed this!!!!

    Does the waste bottle lock into place? At one point they changed the waste bottle and there was a problem with them staying in place. The other issue was the lock on the Bracket HV Assy broke off and you have to replace the Bracket assy.

              are you replacing the waste toner tank with a new, clean, empty, no waste toner of any kind inside, waste tank or dumping the old one. If your trying to reuse a tank make sure the top 3 inches are spotless clean before you put it back in.

              If the tank is new and the HV Housing is locking the tank in place then from what else you have described I would replace the transfer belt and cleaning assy.

              Let us know what happens
