Notes:
To ensure consistent print quality, the toner cartridges and imaging units for many models of
equipment are designed to cease functioning at a predetermined point.
Grayscale images printed with the composite black setting increment the color pages counter,
because color consumables are used. Composite black is the default setting on most printers.

quality, use paper designed for your printer, and correctly set the Print-Quality Mode and Color
