¹ Recommended Monthly Page Volume is a range of pages that helps customers evaluate Lexmark’s
product offerings based on the average number of pages customers plan to print on the device each
month. Lexmark recommends that the number of pages per month be within the stated range for
optimum device performance, based on factors including: supplies replacement intervals, paper loading
intervals, speed, and typical customer usage.
² Maximum Monthly Duty Cycle is defined as the maximum number of pages a device could deliver in
a month using a multi-shift operation. This metric provides a comparison of robustness in relation to
other Lexmark printers and MFPs.
