How long does a cartridge last
1584923
The manufacturer says 1500 sheets, but it depends so much on how much print there is per sheet, and if you have Toner Saver turned on. I can print about 1/4 to 1/2 case of paper per cartridge (4 or 5 reams), which is more than they specify. But most of my printing is forms, which have white spaces for answers. If you are printing your latest book, figure about 2 reams, or maybe 3. Graphics would be less unless they are line drawings.

It's a difficult question to answer (and sorry it took so long to do so) because it really depends on usage. We use it in an office where it is used a lot and I think we get similar useage compared to our last low-priced laser printer. Haven't noticed much difference - though perhaps some. But I have to say that considering it's price and it's cartrige price, even if it has to be replace a little more often, it's worth it. It prints very nicely and takes up so little space. So we're happy with it.

FYI: Cartridges do NOT last a duration of time. It solely depends on how much printing you do and what is on the paper you print. This cartridge is graded at 1500 page yield. This means it will print 1500 pages with a coverage of 5% per page. If you double that coverage you will reduce the 1500 yield. In more understandable terms, the more toner you put on the page, the less pages you will be able to print.

I am still on my first one so quite a bit. So far so good. It's fast and good.

Depends on how much you use it. If you use it a lot it will last for about a month...

That is a good question; I've not checked the exact amount of time we've previously had a spare toner cartridge on the shelf, but I'm guessing about ~6 months before installing with no problems I can recall. I think as long as it is stored within the recommended temperature range, and in a dry location, it would be ok?

I have since used this cartridge and many others with no problems, honestly I didn't look for an expiration date I might in the future,I don't know why ! Maybe you do ?

on the bottom of the box there is an expiration or best before date. frequency of use will help determine whether you will be using completely the new cartridge. i always buy the double black, for instance, and when i put in the second one, i buy a new box. i have never had a problem.

I am not entirely certain how long these cartridges last because, you are correct, it is dependent upon how much you write. This is also the first time I have used Lamy cartridges. Based on the fact that there are five to a box, if you use it every day, it could possibly last anywhere from 40 to 60 days per cartridge. I know that other cartridges for other pens I have used that is just about the amount of time they lasted.

1 year, I believe, butwith no movingparts, there's little to go wrong, unless the case were to split or crack. Just drain it well if you live in an area that experiences freezing temps. I'd also remove, clean & store the cartridge in those areas.

Octenol is recommended for Northern or Coastal regions of the US. One cartridge will last approximately 21 days. The "3" designates that three cartridges are included in the box.

As far as I know the cartridge is not rechargeable so you do need to buy a new one when it's expired.

Don't know about 20 years ago. Had my previous machine 15 years and it had a replacement ink cartridge. These cartridges last a long time, of course, depending on how much you use the machine.

It all depends on how much you print, there's three bottles of black, and one of each color for your color cartridge. I don't print that much but I still have almost fill bottles. So I would say, it would last one person a long time.

There is only one cartridge in the pack and it is a bit larger than the color cartridges. I have no clue if it lasts twice as long as have since gone back to buying the single cartridges of the black.

The date on the package is the warranty expiration date. It DOES NOT mean that the cartridge is no good after the date.

I would say 2 months on the ink cartridge use. The Pencil cartridge can store about 2 leads.

I used my last few cartridges and I don't recall seeing an expiration date on them. I'm sorry I couldn't help your more.

I think the expiration date is on the packaging. It is not on the cartridge itself

From my experience. There is no way of knowing what the expiration date is for the cartridges being shipped. You will not know what the expiration date is until you actually receive the cartridge. The date is on the package when you receive it.

I have a small commercial printing company and use my HP for faxing for us and customers. I just changed the cartridge two weeks ago(for the first time) after installing the printer almost a year ago. Black lasted a long time. I've only made a few color copies on it and they are still good to go.
