Estimated toner yield in relation to page coverage for a DocuMatch with
Lexmark printer model Optra S.
Note:
•
A cartridge is considered to have reached end-of-life after
it has been removed, shaken, and reinstalled at Toner Low
notification 3 times.
•
The estimates in Table 7-1 are for text-only documents.
Graphics will lower the yields by as much as 10%.
•
Switching to Toner Saver mode can increase yield by as
much as 20%.
•
Remember the yield is number of prints! If a mailpiece has
two pages, the yield for mailpieces is half. If you use the
duplex function, the number of mailpieces is half.
Figure 7-1 on the following page shows a reduced replica of
an 8-1/2 x 11 in. sample printed page with 5% coverage.
