    Expected toner yields should be printed in the Product Support Guide. Mind you that is the expected yield and based on a standard coverage of, I believe, 5%. Customer yields will vary based on coverage.

    We just had a pcu crap out at 140K and the fuser hot roller was ghosting copies but was able to clean the roller to eliminate ghosting. Also had to replace tray 1 lift mechanism due to breakage causing noise. Other than that there ok i guess. Also has some squeaking going on.
