Why and When to Replace Your Toner

Toner cartridges are crucial for producing high-quality prints. Over time, the toner in these cartridges depletes, leading to faded prints and even potential damage to the printer if not replaced promptly. Common signs that it’s time to replace your toner include streaky prints, faded text, or most importantly a printer alert indicating you need to replace it. Regularly replacing your toner ensures that your documents maintain their professional quality and prevents more severe printer issues. 

By following this step-by-step guide, you will ensure that your printer runs smoothly and continues to produce high-quality prints consistently.

Step 1: Open the Right-Side Cover (B)

The first step in replacing the toner is to open the right-side cover, which is labeled as ‘B’. Locate the cover on the right side of your Xerox VersaLink C625. Once you’ve found it, swing it open. You’ll notice it swings out easily.

Step 2: Release the Toner

Once you’ve opened the right-side cover, you’ll see the toner cartridges lined up. To remove a toner cartridge, simply press the orange button located at the bottom of the toner. This button releases the toner cartridge from its slot. You’ll notice it swings out slightly, making it easier to grab.

Step 3: Remove the Toner

Now, it’s time to remove the toner. Focus on the black box of the toner cartridge and leave the colored part in place. Grab the black box firmly, pull it up, and then out.

Before moving on to installing the new toner, it’s important to note a crucial detail about the new style of toner. If you are using return-style part number toners, Xerox requires you to send back the empty toner cartridges. Make sure to use the original box to return the empty toner cartridge to Xerox. This practice not only helps in recycling but also ensures that you comply with Xerox’s policies. Read our blog on toner cartridge recycling to learn more. 

Step 4: Insert the New Toner

Now that the old toner cartridge is removed, it’s time to insert the new one. Take your new toner cartridge and set it into the colored slide where the old one was located. Let it go down into its place naturally.

Step 5: Close the Right-Side Cover (B)

Choose Quality Toner

And that’s it! Replacing the toner on the Xerox VersaLink C625 is as simple as opening the cover, releasing the old toner, inserting the new one, and closing the cover. Regular maintenance, like replacing toner cartridges, keeps your printer in optimal condition, ensuring high-quality prints every time. To get the highest quality prints, we recommend using OEM toner. However, for a more affordable option, newly manufactured compatible toners like Xerox Everyday Toner are also a great choice. We encourage you to use toner from reliable and reputable manufacturers to avoid damaging your printer or voiding any printer warranty you might have.
