Extending Toner Cartridge Life

I am indebted to this source:

http://www.fixyourownprinter.com/forums/laser/36633

It strikes me that there may be related settings on other color laser printers.

The HP2600N color laser printer

Page 94 of the HP2600N User Guide has the following instructions for those who would like to use the toner beyond their replacement time:

From the printer’s control panel menu.

1) From the main menu, press (RIGHT ARROW) to System setup and press (SELECT).

2) Press (RIGHT ARROW) to Print quality and press (SELECT).

3) Press (RIGHT ARROW) to Replace supplies and press (SELECT).

4) Press (RIGHT ARROW) to Override out and press (SELECT).

5) Press (SELECT).

If Stop At Out is selected, the printer will stop printing when a cartridge reaches the recommended replacement point.

If Override out is selected, the printer will continue printing when a cartridge reaches the recommended replacement point.

The factory default setting is Stop at out.
