Consumables Replacement of drum cartridges, toner cartridges, and other supplies are customer maintenance responsibilities and are not covered by the warranty. See the warranty. The toner cartridge and the drum cartridge in your WorkCentre are "consumable" parts. This means that after a certain period of use, these parts will need to be replaced.
Toner Cartridge Yield Low printed area The main factor affecting toner cartridge yield is the printed area of a document. The graph is a sample representation of how the number of copies/prints per cartridge decreases as the printed area increases. Other factors which can affect the toner cartridge yield are: The size of the document being copied/printed.
Storage The toner cartridge and drum cartridge should always be stored in sealed opaque bags to protect them from direct sunlight. Furthermore, the toner cartridge and the drum cartridge should be stored at temperatures of not lower than approximately 0°C (32°F) and not higher than approximately 40°C (104°F).
NOTE: Help the environment by recycling your used toner cartridge. Use the recycle sticker packed with the toner cartridge for instructions on returning the used toner cartridge to Xerox. 5. Refer to Installing the Toner Cartridge. Drum Cartridge Life The rated life for the drum cartridge is approximately 18,000 pages, but this can vary depending on how the drum cartridge is handled.
