Expected cartridge life

The life of the toner cartridge depends on the amount of toner that print jobs require. When printing text at ISO 19752 5% coverage, a new toner cartridge lasts an average of 8,000 pages. (The original toner cartridge supplied with the MFX-3050 lasts an average of 4,000 impressions.

The actual number may also be different depending on the print density of the pages you print on, and the number of pages may be affected by operating environment, printing interval, media type, and media size. If you print a lot of graphics, you may need to change the cartridge more often.

Redistributing toner

•White streaks or light printing occurs.

•Toner Low appears on the display.

•The Status LED blinks red.

3Thoroughly roll the cartridge 5 or 6 times to distribute the toner evenly inside the cartridge.
