The life of the toner containers depends on the amount of toner required
to accomplish your printing jobs. According to ISO/IEC 19798 and
EcoPrint switched off the toner container can print as follows (A4/Letter
paper is assumed): 20,000 pages (FS-4020DN); 15,000 pages

You can print a status page to check how much toner remains in the
toner container. The Toner Gauge in the consumables status section on
the status page shows a progress bar, which roughly represents how
much toner is left in the toner container.

container. The starter toner container lasts an average of 10,000 pages
