HP toner cartridges
HP policy on non-HP toner cartridges
Hewlett-Packard Company cannot recommend use of non-HP toner
cartridges, either new, refilled, or remanufactured. Since they are not
HP products, HP cannot influence their design or control their quality.
Note Warranty does not apply to defects resulting from software, interfacing,
parts, or supplies not supplied by HP.
Toner cartridge storage
Do not remove the toner cartridge from its package until you are
ready to use it. The shelf life of a cartridge in an unopened package is
approximately 2.5 years. The shelf life of a cartridge in an opened
package is approximately 6 months.
CAUTION To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose it to light for
more than a few minutes.
Toner cartridge life expectancy
The life of the toner cartridge depends on the amount of toner that
print jobs require. When printing text at 5% coverage, an
HP LaserJet 1100 toner cartridge lasts an average of 2,500 pages.
This assumes the print density is set to 3 and EconoMode is off.
(These are the default settings.)
Recycling toner cartridges
To install a new HP toner cartridge, see “ Changing the toner
cartridge ” or follow the instructions included in the toner cartridge
box. Also, see the recycling information on the toner cartridge box
and “
HP Cartridge Recycling Program information .”
Saving toner
To save toner, select the EconoMode option in your printer properties
settings. EconoMode (Save Toner) allows the printer to use less toner
on each page. Selecting this option will extend the life of the toner
cartridge and reduce your cost per page, but will reduce print quality.
See “
Print using EconoMode (save toner) .”
