Chapter C

Note

Discard the used consumable item according to local regulations, keeping it separate from domestic waste. If you have questions, call your local waste disposal office. Be sure to re-seal the consumable item tightly so that the material inside does not spill.

We recommend placing used consumable items on a piece of paper or cloth to prevent accidentally spilling or scattering the material inside.

If you use paper that is not a direct equivalent for the recommended paper, the life of consumable items and machine parts may be reduced.

The projected life for each of the items listed is based on an average of 5% coverage of the printable area using any color toner cartridge. Frequency of replacement will vary depending on the complexity of printed pages, percentage of coverage and type of media used.

Toner cartridges

A new toner cartridge contains enough toner to print approx. 10,000 pages for Black and approx. 6,600 pages for Cyan, Magenta and Yellow Letter/A4-size single-sided pages at about 5% coverage.

Note

The amount of toner used varies depending on how much print is on the page and the print density setting.

If you change the print density setting for lighter or darker printing, the amount of toner that is used will change.

Toner nearly empty message

Check printed pages, page counter, and display messages regularly. If you see the message below, the machine has nearly run out of the indicated toner or the indicated toner is not evenly distributed inside the cartridge. Make sure you have a new toner cartridge ready for replacement.

Toner Low

X = C, M, Y, K

C stands for Cyan, M stands for Magenta and Y stands for Yellow, K stands for Black.

Although you can print approx. 300 (Black) and approx. 500 (Cyan, Magenta and Yellow) additional pages (at 5% coverage) after the Toner Low message first appears, you should replace the toner cartridge with a new one before it becomes completely empty.
