1997 1MZ-FE Transmission Filter/Fluid

My transmission fluid is dirty and needs to be changed. How do I know if i need to change the filter as well or just the fluid? I have never done this DIY before. I know there is a big thread on how to do this with the 5FSE, but is there a thread on how to do this on the 1mzfe? Thanks.

The only way to know if the filter needs changing it to remove and inspect. Drop the pan, clean it and the magnets, replace the filter. The procedure for your car/tranny (A541E) is almost exactly the same as for the A140E.
