Toner Cartridge Yield
The main factor affecting toner cartridge yield is the printed area of a
document.
The graph is a sample representation of how the number of
copies/prints per cartridge decreases as the printed area increases.
Other factors which can affect the toner cartridge yield are:
•
The size of the document being copied/printed.
•
Dark backgrounds.
•
Leaving the platen cover open.
•
The number of times the WorkCentre is switched on and off.
•
Double sided copying will use more toner per ream of paper.
•
High humidity.
To get the most from your toner cartridge:
•
Always copy with the document cover closed.
•
Leave the WorkCentre on during the day. Switch off the WorkCentre
at the end of the working day.
•
Copy with the exposure control set to Auto exposure unless you need
to adjust for the background of your original.
•
Operate the WorkCentre in a dry environment whenever possible.
•
Use Toner Saver Mode.
