Consumable Life Expectancies
Attention
The stated life expectancy of each consumable based on printing under
specific operating conditions, such as media type (paper), page size
(simplex, letter/A4), coverage (normal 5% coverage), and job size (average
4-page jobs). These parameters provide optimal consumable life.
The actual life expectancy will vary (or be reduced) based on printing
under specific operating conditions and other printing variables, such as
intermittent printing (for example, one-page jobs), ambient temperature,
humidity, media type, page size, duplexing (a duplex page is equivalent to
two simplex pages), and content of material printed (for example, text or
graphics).
Starter Toner Cartridges
The printer ships with a full set of starter toner cartridges. At 5% coverage,
you can expect to print approximately 4,000 letter/A4 simplex pages (faces)
with the starter black toner cartridge and approximately 3,000 letter/A4 sim-
plex pages (faces) with the starter yellow, magenta, and cyan toner car-
tridges. (However, many factors also affect toner life expectancy. See the
notes at the end of the following table.)
Replacement Toner Cartridges
The following table lists the approxiate life expectancy of replacement toner
cartridges at various percentages of coverage.
