These figures are based on an average of 5% coverage of the printable area
and standard density for any one color (refer to Example A below left:

In case of Monochrome printing, 1 color (Black only) is used.
In case of full color printing, 4 colors (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black) are used.
Therefore the life of Color imaging unit is 60,000 pages at Monochrome printing
(Black only), 15,000 pages at full color printing (4 color mode) at 5% coverage per
.
