When do I replace them?

Your printer displays Supplies on the second line of the operator panel display when there are any supplies that need attention. Press Menu> or <Menu to open the Supplies Menu and quickly determine whether you need to add toner, replace a photoconductor, or load paper.

The average yield of a supply is the average number of pages you can print before you need to replace the supply. The actual yield varies, depending on factors such as the printer settings you choose, the toner coverage on each printed page, and the size paper you use.

The paper size affects the printer’s page count calcula- tions. The printer counts an A4 or letter size sheet as one page; however, it counts a B4 or legal size sheet as

1.2pages, and an A3 or 11x17 size sheet as 2 pages. There- fore, if you print all your jobs on A3 paper, the yield for a particular supply may appear to be half the yield claimed for that supply.

The following sections provide details about when you need to replace each supply.
