Regular maintenance
The toner cartridge holds the toner powder that forms the printed images.
Each cartridge should yield about 6,000 pages. If you print many graphic
images, you may need to change cartridges more often. If your pages start to
look too light, or if you see vertical white regions in dark images, it may be
time to change the cartridge.
For ordering information, see Appendix D.
