The starter cartridges that ship with the printer have an average life of
approximately 3,000 pages, based on an average of 5% coverage.

Specialty media (Transparencies, coated paper, etc.) will result in
shortening the life of a consumable to maintain better print quality.
When one page is printed on this type of media, 2 pages are counted. So
when only speciality media is used, it may reduce the life of components
by half. When replacing the fuser unit, replace the oil supply roll as well.
Do not insert the used oil supply roll into the new fuser unit; it may
damage the new fuser unit.

Printing a large quantity of pages with high coverage will result in the
message “Fuser Unit wearing out” to be displayed earlier than its
expected life. In this case, replace the fuser unit.
