Frequently asked questions

It is a thermistor error indicating the sensor is unable to provide a valid temperature reading for the heater.

No, the printer locks down to prevent thermal hazards or damage to the fuser rolls.

Original Pantum TL-425 toners keep the internal thermal load within spec.

High dust or excessive heat can eventually lead to sensor degradation if the printer is improperly ventilated.
