Chapter 6. Ordering and Storing Supplies
Chapter Overview
This chapter describes how to order and store the supplies that the printer uses.
Printer Supplies
Table 13 lists printer supplies, the part numbers you use to order them, and an
estimate of how often they need to be replaced. The yields listed in the table are
approximations. They are not a warranty or guarantee of minimum life, and are
provided only to assist in supplies planning. Analyze your actual usage figures to
determine how much of each supply item to stock.
Actual supply life varies according to printer usage, toner settings, paper
characteristics, temperature, and humidity. In addition, special applications (such
as adhesive labels, extensive graphics, bar codes, landscape applications, and
pre-printed forms) may significantly reduce supply life.
When the printer runs low on a particular supply, it displays a message on the
operator panel.
