Replacement Drum Units
For optimum print quality, using Canon genuine drum units is recommended.
The numbers of the pages are estimated when printing in the following conditions.
Paper size: Letter; Paper type: Plain paper; Printing ratio: 5 %; Print density: the default; When printing at interval of 3 sheets (3-sheet intermittent printing), the lifetime of the drum cartridges (Canon Genuine Drum Cartridges) for this printer is approximately 45,000 pages for the black toner and approximately 40,000 pages for each color toner. These values are the number of pages that you can print when performing only color printing.
Even when printing in black and white, each of the color drum cartridges is consumed. Therefore, when printing in black and white a lot, the lifetime of each of the color drum cartridges may be half the number of pages you can print. Depending on the printing preferences or printing environment such as the intermit printing, paper type, paper size, and 1-sided / 2-sided printing, the number of pages you can print may be half the number.
