EPLACING CONSUMABLE ITEMS
This section explains how to replace consumable items when due.
As a guide, the life expectancy of these items is:
>
Toner — 3,000 (standard capacity) or 5,000 (high
capacity) A4 pages at 5% coverage, which means that 5%
of the addressable print area is printed with this colour.
Toner life is directly affected by coverage, e.g. at 10%
coverage there is sufficient toner for 1,500 pages
(standard capacity) or 2,500 pages (high capacity),
conversely at 2.5% there is sufficient toner for 6,000
pages (standard capacity) or 10,000 pages (high
capacity) in the cartridge.
>
Image drum — 17,000 pages (calculated on typical office
usage where 20% of printing is 1 page only, 30% is 3
page documents and 50% is print runs of 15 pages or
more).
>
Transfer belt — Approximately 50,000 A4 pages.
>
Fuser — Approximately 45,000 A4 pages.
The machine is shipped with sufficient toner for
3,000 A4 pages in each print cartridge of which
1,500 A4 pages worth of toner is used to charge each
image drum.
