Introduction
Consumable Life Expectancies
What is a consumable?
A consumable is an item that needs to be replaced at regular intervals. For
the magicolor 3300, consumables include:
Fuser unit
Imaging unit
Media feed roller
Toner cartridges
Transfer unit
What are sheets, faces, and pages?
A sheet of media has two sides and can be printed either simplex
(one-sided) or duplex (two-sided). A simplex sheet, also referred to a face or
a page, is a single pass of the media past the printer’s imaging unit while a
duplex page consists of two passes of the media past the imaging unit.
The number of sheets printed shown on the startup page may differ from the
sheets printed and faces printed statistics in CrownView and on the consum-
ables statistics page (Operator Control/Consumables/Print Statistics). The
numbers on the startup page refer to number of sheets/faces printed during
the lifetime of the printer.
