Caution: The Xerox Warranty, Service Agreement, or Xerox Total Satisfaction Guarantee does
not cover damage caused by using unsupported paper or specialty media. The Xerox Total
Satisfaction Guarantee is available in the United States and Canada. Coverage could vary
outside these areas. Contact your local Xerox representative for details.
Note:
• To ensure consistent print quality, the toner, print, and drum cartridges for many devices are
designed to cease functioning at a predetermined point.
• Grayscale images printed with the composite black setting increment the color pages
counter, because color consumables are used. Composite black is the default setting on
most printers.
