Toner Cartridges
The lifetime of the Canon genuine toner cartridges used in this machine (Color imageCLASS 
MF9170c / Color imageCLASS MF9150c) is approximately 6000 pages for K (Black) and is 
approximately 6000 pages for each C (Cyan), M (Magenta) and Y (Yellow). The lifetime of the 
Canon genuine toner cartridges used in this machine (Color imageCLASS MF8450c) is 
approximately 6000 pages for K (Black) and is approximately 4000 pages for each C (Cyan), 
M (Magenta) and Y (Yellow). The page counts are based on 5% coverage* when printing A4 
size paper with the default print density setting. The level of toner consumption varies 
depending on the type of originals printed. If your average original contains a lot of 
graphics, tables, or charts, the life of the toner cartridge will be shorter as they consume 
more toner. When you are replacing a toner cartridge, be sure to use a toner cartridge 
designed for this product. To purchase the Canon genuine replacement toner cartridge, 
contact your local Canon dealer or CanonCustomerCareCenter(1-800-828-4040).
