Using, storing, and monitoring the print cartridge can help ensure high-quality output.
Supplies life
The average cartridge yield is 6,500 pages (for the Q7551A cartridge) or 13,000 pages (for the Q7551X
cartridge), in accordance with ISO/IEC 19752. Ac tual cartridge yield depends on specific use.
CAUTIONEconoMode is a feature that allows the devi ce to use less toner per page. Selecting
this option may extend the life of the toner supply and may reduce cost per page. However, it will
also reduce print quality. The printed image is lighter , but it is adequate for printing drafts or proofs.
HP does not recommend full-time use of EconoMode.  If EconoMode is used full-time, it is possible
that the toner supply will outlast th e mechanical parts in the print cartridge. If print quality begins
to degrade under these circumstances , you will need to install a new print cartridge, even if there
may be toner supply remaining in the cartridge.
