I got one a couple months ago. 3000 pages in. I've replaced 2 toner cartridges (black and cyan) About $20 each for the LD cartridges I'm buying.
That looks interesting.
That seems like high usage for a couple of months. Like 6 reams.
It's at my small office. 6 users. Even then I agree that we print too much, but at least it is less than a ream a week!
Were the cartridges you had to replace the "starter" cartridges, or the regular size?
I believe they were starters. I had to replace the black one at only 1500 pages or so. I'm now at 3000 and the black toner still shows as full on the status line. The cyan I just replaced last week. Yellow and Magenta are still half full.
Did you get the memory upgrade? or the Duplexer?
I went for the basics, so no upgrades. And it is a pure printer. No scanner/copier/fax included. I still have a Cannon MX922 printer for scanning / copying / duplex (and backup in case the Phaser dies). I bought the Xerox because I was having to mess with a ink cartridge every week or two and sometimes 2 or 3 times in one week. I was re-filling the ink myself to save money, but I simply got tired of messing with it.
