This error may be caused by a defective toner, pc kit or the contact pins.

If this is a newly installed toner or pc kit,please try to check the pins inside the printer (5), try to clean and check the alignment.

Also, check if the pins are bent, if so, please try to straightened the pins.

If you need further assistance please send us an email on the address provided below.
