1500 on initial or smaller. You can buy 3000 yield cartridge but beware you can ONLY buy toner online. No stores anywhere carry ricoh toner.

I just bought this printer about 2 months ago. I have printed about 600 pages and the toner is about half way.

Use lower print resolution in print setupand simpler fonts. But depending on Number of sheets printed monthly, seems like 6 months of toner life is very good

I use a 3000 copies toner MLT - D203S : other capacities are available I understand

On the average, one toner cartridge will do about 2000 at about 5% surface area. For the normal printing and copying, you will see a typical yield of 1500 to 1750 copies. Hopefully this will help you on your decision.

I would say I got about 1800 pages out of the black toner, the color toner were about 1100 pages. I have been happy with the quality and price and works good for my small business.

Hi there, the TN221 is the standard yield, prints approx. 2,500 pages at 5% coverage, while the TN225 (colors) are the high yield variety, printing approx 2,200 pages at 5% coverage. Thanks!

I just read the answer prior to mine and wanted to address the toner issue. I consistently purchase the compatible cartridges through Amazon sellers, about 6 at a time about twice a year and have never had an issue with leakage. Great value and page yield.

Well, I'm still using the original cartridges that it shipped with. The printer has a web page interface where it shows all of the statistics as well as configuration options, etc. Right now it tells me I've printed a total of 949 pages (499 Color, 450 B&W;). Images Count Total: 2125 (Cyan: 433: Magenta: 433 Yellow: 317 Black: 942). Drum Count: 949. The toners for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black are all showing 60% of full. I've used %40 of all toners.

I am a seasonal tax return preparer and I use my old reliable LaserJet HP1320 as my workhorse. I usually use up a high yield cartridge Q5949X after printing on a 1 1/4 case of printer paper (a case has 5,000 sheets), so my best "guesstimate" of average usage is about 6,250, more or less. My printer is set at 600 dpi by default so I know that I can still "stretch up the cartridge's life by changing the settings to 300 dpi. Unfortunately, my printer does not have a print counter so I just rely on how many reams of papers I use per toner cartidge. I usually print only text so your results maybe lower if you also print in graphics mode. I hope this information helps.

That's interesting. I just got the message that the toner is low after printing a mailing, but it was a brand new cartridge and we only printed - at most - 1/2 of what the supposed capacity is. Just a letter, so not excessive page coverage either. I guess the answer is I don't know, but have had some similar experience (though not that soon). Typically this hasn't been a huge issue.

Those who READ the specs provided by Amazon will note the following: "High-yield replacement toner cartridges4 (TN-336 BK/C/M/Y) print approximately 4,000 pages7 black and 3,500 pages7 color to help reduce printing costs. And footnote "4" says "Additional purchase required." Thus, the printer does NOT come with HIGH-YIELD toner cartridges.

Good info on holding down the green key for about 4 sec to get the page count.Never looked at this before. My very old 1022 printed 15,220 pages... so far ... and still going strong.Here is my data point. I get about 2,000 pages per LD brand toner cartridge.

Yes - typical for almost all printers today, the toner supplied was not full retail amount - probably will yield about 1200 pages, depending on color saturation. Very good printer - fast and good color - not bad for photos - does reasonable job though
