● Cartridge Protection: This feature permanently associates toner cartridges with a specific printer,
or fleet of printers, so they cannot be used in other printers. Protecting cartridges protects your
investment. When this feature is enabled, if someone attempts to transfer a protected cartridge
from the original printer into an unauthorized printer, that printer will not print with the protected
cartridge. The printer control panel displays a message that the cartridge is protected, and it
provides information explaining how to proceed.
CAUTION: After enabling cartridge protection for the printer, all subsequent toner cartridges
installed in the printer are automatically and
permanently
protected. To avoid protecting a new
cartridge, disable the feature
before
installing the new cartridge.
Turning the feature off does not turn off protection for cartridges that are currently installed.
Both features are off by default. Follow these procedures to enable or disable them.

The Cartridge Policy feature can be enabled or disabled using the control panel or the Embedded Web
