Saving toner
To get the most from the toner cartridge, keep the following
guidelines in your mind.
• Do not remove the toner cartridge from its package until you
are ready to use it.
• Do not refill toner cartridges. The printer warranty does not
cover damage caused by using a refilled cartridge.
• Store toner cartridges in the same environment as the printer.
• To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose it to
light for more than a few minutes.
The life of the toner cartridge depends on the amount of toner
that print jobs require. When printing text at 5 % coverage, a
new toner cartridge lasts an average of 3,000 pages. (But, the
toner cartridge supplied with the printer lasts an average of
3,000 pages.)
To save toner, press the
panel. The button will be lit. You can also enable the Toner
Save Mode in your printer properties. Refer to "Using Toner
Save Mode" on page 5.6. Selecting this option will extend the life
of the toner cartridge and reduce your cost per page, but will
reduce print quality.
