Note

The actual number of printed pages you get from a particular toner cartridge
depends on the type and size of paper you are using, the contents of your
print images, and printing environment conditions. The life of a toner car-
tridge also shortens as the cartridge becomes older. All this means that a toner
cassette might require replacement sooner than the normal life described above.

Toner cartridges that come with the printer are for setup purposes, and will
not provide the number of pages described above.

Other Consumables

Note

Actual life of consumables depends on the type and size of paper you are
using, the contents of your print images, and printing environment condi-
tions. The life of consumables also shortens as the consumables become older.
All that means that consumables might require replacement sooner than the
life indicated.
