Life expectancies of parts that wear Inspect any parts that wear when servicing the product. Replace them as needed, based on failure or wear, rather than on usage. The following table lists approximate schedules for replacing consumables. Table 12. Life expectancies of parts that wear Description Part number Life (est.)

* The estimated print cartridge life is based on letter- or A4-sized paper with an average of five percent toner coverage and a medium density setting. Print cartridge life can be extended further by conserving toner using draft mode settings. Scanner calibration The scanner calibrates itself automatically at the start of scan of copy jobs. Normally, you don’t need to initiate the calibration, but you can initiate the calibration through the secondary service menu and produce a report that shows the calibration results (page 229). 56 Chapter 3 - Maintenance EN
