ABSTRACT:
A toner cartridge having a more robust planar wing design having a uniform thickness along its extent so that the leading end thereof is no thinner than the trailing end thereof. Each planar wing is adapted to slidingly engage an associated guide groove formed in opposite sides of the printer. The uniform thickness along each wing's extent provides structural integrity and prevents the planar wing from flexing when the waste bin is being installed into the printer. The reduction in rearward sloping angle of the planar wing allows for easier installation and removal of the cartridge from the printer.
