Maintenance Toner Container Replacement Frequency of toner container replacement The life of the toner containers depends on the amount of toner required to accomplish your printing jobs. When 5% coverage (a typical business document) of individual toner colors is assumed for A4 or letter size paper: • The black toner container lasts an average of 8,000 monochrome pages. • The cyan, magenta, and yellow toner containers last an average of 8,000 color images. You can print a status page to check how much toner remains in the toner container - see Printing a Status Page in the Using the Operator Panel section of the Advanced Operation Guide. The Toner Gauge in the consumables status section on the status page shows a progress bar for each color, which roughly represents how much toner is left in the toner container. Starter Toner Containers The toner containers packed with the new printer are starter toner containers. The black starter toner container lasts an average of 4,000 monochrome pages. The cyan, magenta, and yellow starter toner containers last an average of 4,000 color images for each. Toner Kits It is strongly recommended that you use the new toner kit supplied from the manufacturer to prevent printer troubles and ensure a long printer life. The toner kits are supplied in 4 different colors: cyan, magenta, yellow and black. A new toner kit for each color contains the following items: • Toner Container • Cleaning cloth • Grid cleaner for main charger cleaning • Plastic waste bags for old toner container and old waste toner box • Waste toner box • Installation Guide NOTE: Do not remove the toner container from the carton until you are ready to install it in the printer.
