Toner Cartridge
The toner cartridge in your printer contains the printing
mechanism and a supply of toner. Your toner cartridge life
depends on the amount of toner your jobs require. When you print
word-processed text, a toner cartridge lasts approximately 6,800
pages, printed at 5% coverage. (A typical business letter, as
shown in Figure 4-2, is about 5% coverage.) This assumes that
the print density setting is in the middle range (set to 3 in your
printer’s control panel).
