The copier will alert you when the toner is getting low, either by a flashing message on the screen or a blinking red toner light. Once low toner has been detected, you'll have a while (depending on how much you copy and print) before the toner is depleted and you can't use the copier, but it's always good to have an extra toner on hand.
