Life of Consumables
Important
• Toner
Reference values are measured based on ISO/
IEC19798. Actual replacement cycles depend on
printing conditions, output contents, paper size and
type, and environment.
•Drum
The number of printed pages is a reference value based
on A4-size one-sided printing of an average of three
continuous sheets per print job. The actual number of
printable pages depends on the conditions defined
above, in addition to the number of continuous prints,
paper size, paper type, paper feed direction, paper tray
and output tray settings, monochrome/color auto
selection
*
, other mode selections, the initialization
operation performed when the printer power is turned
on or off, adjustments to maintain print quality, and other
operating environment conditions. Certain conditions
may result in actual values that are half those shown in
the table. The values presented here are for reference
only.
* When [Color] is selected on the printer, certain data
may use the color drum even when printing a
monochrome page.
• Waste toner bottle
The number of printable pages is based on continuous
printing of A4 -size, portrait orientation, one-sided
prints, with an image density of 5% for each color, and a
color-to-monochrome ratio of 6:4. Actual replacement
cycles depend on printing conditions, output contents,
paper size and type, and environment.
•Fuser kit
The replacement cycles are targets based on
continuous, one-sided printing on A4-size plain paper.
The actual number of printable pages can vary greatly
from these values due to paper size and type, printing
environment and other printing conditions, such as the
frequency of power-ups. This is because the indicated
number of pages are calculated based on estimations of
factors that influence actual replacement part life.
Though the deciding factor for fuser unit life, for
example, is power on time, this is converted and
indicated as number of print pages.
Regular Replacement Parts
Important
• The printer has certain components that need to be
replaced periodically in order to maintain its functionality
and performance. These components are called the
regular replacement parts.
The replacement cycles are targets based on
continuous, one-sided printing on A4-size plain
paper. The actual number of printable pages can vary
greatly from these values due to paper size and type,
printing environment and other printing conditions, such
as the frequency of power-ups. This is because the
indicated number of pages are calculated based on
estimations of factors that influence actual replacement
part life.
Replacement of regular replacement parts should be
performed by an engineer. You will be charged for labor
as well as the for the cost of the replacement part.
Note
• A warning message appears about 1,500 sheets prior to
when replacement is necessary for the Maintenance kit
(200K), and Maintenance kit (480K).
