Whenever you replace the PC kit (a.k.a. drum unit) in your Lexmark E260 printer, you have to manually reset the life counter so the printer knows you put in a new one. Otherwise, it will continue to blink its indicator lights saying, “Ahh, this imaging unit is old and stale. Give me a new one!”
So how do you reset your Lexmark E260 drum counter? It’s super easy. Just follow these steps:
Reset PC Counter
- With the power on, open the front door.
- Press and hold the cancel button (X). After a few seconds, the printer will flash its indicator lights telling you it’s resetting the life counter. At this point, you can release the cancel button.
- Close the front door.
- The printer should restart automatically. If it doesn’t, turn it off then turn it back on.
- Enjoy your new imaging unit!
