HP Color LaserJet Pro M454, MFP M479 - Replace the toner cartridges

  caution:

Cartridges are for distribution and use within their designated region only; they will not work outside of their designated region.

  caution:

To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose it to light for more than a few minutes. If the toner cartridge must be removed from the printer for an extended period of time, place the cartridge in the original plastic packaging, or cover the cartridge with a lightweight opaque item.

  caution:

If toner gets on clothing, wipe it off by using a dry cloth and wash the clothes in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric.

note:

Information about recycling used toner cartridges is in the toner cartridge box.
