How to Replace a Magenta Cartridge for an HP 3600 That Prints Black Only
The HP Color LaserJet 3600 is a laser printer that has the ability to print in full color. To do this, the printer has a total of four toner cartridges, rather than the single toner cartridge found in monochrome laser printers. Each toner cartridge can be used for approximately 4,000 pages. If you find that your color pages are missing red hues, it is likely that the magenta toner cartridge is empty. Replace the magenta toner cartridge in an HP Color LaserJet 3600 if your documents contain no red colors.
