[QUOTE="bryanem, post: 101188, member: 42"] Hello, I have been getting conflicting information from various sources on calculating page yields. Most color toner cartridges are rated at 5% color coverage. For example, if a printer uses a Black, Cyan, Yellow and Magenta and if the cartriges yields 10,000 pages on a 5% color coverage, assuming a color print out uses approxmiately the same amount of ink from each cartridge, does that mean if it is a 10% color page that is always printed, the yield is reduced 5, 000 pages, if its a 20% color coverage page that is always printed, the yield is 2,500 pages... etc ? I realize in the real world every page printed has different color coverage and that each color printed may use different proportions of each ink color, I am just trying to get a ballpark approximation of color toner usage for a color printer I am considering purchasing, in an application where the color printing is much higher coverage than the 5% color coverage that is typically cited in the specifications. Thanks ! [/QUOTE]
