Consumable itemsD
InkThe machine uses individual Black, Yellow, Cyan and Magenta ink 
cartridges that are separate from the print head assembly.
Service Life of Ink 
CartridgeReplacement Ink Cartridges
Black - Approximately 500 pages at 5% coverageYellow, Cyan and 
Magenta - Approximately 400 pages at 5% coverage
„The first time you install a set of ink cartridges the machine will 
use an amount of ink to fill the ink delivery tubes for high quality 
print outs. This process will only happen once. With all following 
ink cartridges you can print the specified number of pages.
„The above figures assume continuous printing at a resolution of 
600 x 600 dpi in normal mode after installing new ink cartridge.
„The number of pages a cartridge will print may change 
depending on how often you use the machine and how many 
pages you print with each use.
„The machine will automatically and periodically clean the print 
head assembly, a process that uses a small amount of ink.
„When the machine identifies a cartridge as empty there may be 
a small amount of ink left in it. This is necessary to prevent air 
from drying out and damaging the print head assembly.
