L If you turn on the toner save feature, the toner
cartridge will last approx. 40 % longer.
Drum life
The drum cartridge needs to be replaced regularly.
There are various factors that determine the actual drum
life, such as temperature, humidity, type of paper and
how much toner you use for the number of sheets per
print job. The maximum drum life is approx. 10,000
sheets. The actual number of sheets your drum will print
may be significantly less than this estimate if your unit is
often used for printing small number sheets per job.
Because many of the factors that determine the actual
drum life cannot be controlled, we cannot guarantee a
minimum number of sheets that will be printed by your
drum.
Note:
L The continuous use of an old drum cartridge may
cause malfunction. To prevent this, when the drum
life is finished, the unit will stop printing after a while,
and printing will not be possible until a new drum
cartridge is installed.
Waste toner cartridge life
The waste toner cartridge needs to be replaced
regularly. The maximum waste toner cartridge life is
approx. 32,000 sheets with 5 % coverage for
monochrome printing and approx. 8,000 sheets with 5 %
cyan, magenta, yellow and black coverage for color
printing. The actual number of sheets may significantly
vary depending on the contents of the original
document.
Waste disposal method
Waste material should be disposed of under conditions
which meet all national and local environmental
regulations.
