==User-Discovered Solutions== Users have found several workarounds for this issue: *Taking out the cartridges before turning off the printer for an extended period. *Replacing the chip of the affected cartridge with the chip from an older cartridge that still has battery power ''(the chip is attached with screws)''. *Replacing the 1.5V battery yourself if you have the necessary tools (requires soldering skills). *Keeping the printer perpetually turned on to avoid battery depletion. Users on Printer Forums reported success with '''replacing the battery or swapping the chip''' from a recognized cartridge.<ref name="printerforums2" /> Others have noted that pressing the '''red X and back arrow on the printer control panel''' allows access to toner status and may temporarily resolve the issue.<ref name="printerforums3" />
