    Consumable Life Expectancies The stated life expectancy of each consumable is based on printing under specific operating conditions, such as media type, number of color planes, page size, and page coverage (@ normal 5% coverage of letter/A4-size media). The actual life expectancy will vary depending on these and other printing variables, including continuous or intermittent printing, ambient tem- perature, and humidity.
