I found a great way to deal with the issue. 7440N toner needs to get RESET in order for the printer to THINK it is a new toner cart.

Top of page 4 of the following link has a diagram. Remove the three screws, remove the panel and remove the pully. Then reset the gear as shown in the picture and put everything back as is.

Works like a CHARM!!!! :)

You would have to buy another cartridge to replace this problem

Thanks so much! Totally worked - got 4 more pages so far and the message no longer reads that the "toner is low" or "toner life end."

Thank you kindly sir, worked like a charm.
