STEP 1.2STEP 1.1
STEP 1.3 (CHECK THE ALIGNMENT OF THE BOSS)
Pull the toner hopper away from the drum unit using the
handle (Figures 1.2).
To release the toner hopper from the drum unit, press the
release button located on the drum unit (Figure 1.1).
While remanufacturing the Brother®HL-3040 toner cartridge, you will need to check the cartridge drive gear boss for
proper alignment or warping (Figure 1.3). IF THE BOSS IS WARPED OR MISSHAPEN, THE CARTRIDGE CANNOT
BE REMANUFACTURED. If you proceed with a cartridge that has a warped boss, the drive side gears will not connect
securely, they will not engage properly and a loud clicking noise will be heard.
