Toner Container Replacement
Frequency of toner container replacement
The life of the toner containers depends on the amount of toner required
to accomplish your printing jobs. When 5% coverage (a typical business
document) of individual toner colors is assumed for A4 or letter size
paper:
• The black toner container lasts an average of 9,000 monochrome
pages (FS-C5100DN: 5,000 monochrome pages, FS-C5200DN:
7,000 monochrome pages).
• The cyan, magenta, and yellow toner containers last an average of
12,000 color images (FS-C5100DN: 3,500 color images, FS-
C5200DN: 5,000 color images).
You can print a status page to check how much toner remains in the toner
container. The Toner Gauge in the consumables status section on the
status page shows a progress bar for each color, which roughly
represents how much toner is left in the toner container.
Starter Toner Containers
The toner containers packed with the new printer are starter toner
containers. The black starter toner container lasts an average of 4,500
monochrome pages
(FS-C5100DN: 2,500 monochrome pages, FS-
C5200DN: 3,500 monochrome pages)
. The cyan, magenta, and yellow
starter toner containers last an average of 6,000 color images for each
(FS-C5100DN: 1,750 color images for each, FS-C5200DN: 2,500 color
images
).
