Actual # of pages printed per cartridge? Spec says 400-500, is this accurate?

The number of pages is going to depend on what you are printing. Photo's and items that are ink dense require a lot more ink to print. I never count the pages I get from a cartridge. I just replace it when it begins to get lighter that what I like. I never replace it when the printer says it is low. I get many more pages out if before it begins to get light. If your printing does not require much color, the color cartridge has a tendency to clog due to drying. If this happens, just clean the cartridge using the settings on the printer.

I've never counted, but as someone who has owned HP printers in the past and now owns a canon, the canon printer/cartridges print a whole lot more pages than the HP ever did.

We just went through the 225 ink cartridge in 1 month! I wonder how many "typical" pages the 225 will last? 1 month seems ridiculously short.Just looked up the page yield for this cartridge it says 340 pages.

The original cartridge comes with a cartridge that does about 400 pages. It is not a 1600 pages cartridge. I just paid $75 for a new cartridge - so I will be buying it here from now on.

The 600 pages is what the manufactured (in this case Brother) says that the ink cartridges will print. In my experience it can be 10% less in some case 10% more...

It does quite a few when it starts, not sure about the exact number but I would bet it would be closer to the 3000. I have replaced all of our printers in our shop (around 15) with these and they are fantastic. Great yield, easy cartridge change, fast printing, touch screen setup to the WiFi network.

I have no idea, this is the first time I have used this supplier. I am a small user and probably onlyhave printed about 100 pages so far and it has worked well.

The original cartridge gave us about 700-800 copies. This cartridge which replaced it, according to the printer, has printed 1034 pages (I have my doubts about this number though) so far without any issues. Since last two days the toner low message is back and is consistently on but little shaking makes it work. Let see how far it will go. Will keep you posted on the final number.

Yes four Starter cartridges. They should give the average page count in the description. I've had mine for a few months, and print out invoices and an occasional 40 or 50 double sided sheet for presentations. Still showing 3/4 full.

According to the product page on HPs site: Introductory cartridge included; ~700 pages based on ISO/IEC 19752 and continuous print.

Does anyone know how many Black and White pages you can print per B&W; cartridge with the MP830?

Hi William, my Total Page Count is at 169,810 and it is working excellently. It was about 143k when I first purchased it. GTPrinters also sent me a NEW (generic) toner cartridge after they read my review! I did try to purchase this same printer before, from a Texas company, TRASH, SENT BACK! The Page Count on it was 283K (not that bad) but it looked like (and sounded like) it had been assembled from parts from many printers. Not happy at all... If I were you, I would look for a Page Count somewhere below 225k and not re-built from multiple machines. Best Of Luck, Mitch

If you get good ones ( I didn't), you should get about 2600 pages, this is with light text and no graphics. My pages are heavy text, no graphics ( about 7.5% coverage) and I normally get 2000 pages from a Brother OEM cartridge, refills/remanufactured about 1900. Good luck with these cartridges.

I bought 2 and installed one several months ago, so I'm not sure. It seems that, in the past I have gotten around 800-1000 copies on similar "made in China" cartridges.

I received some low capacity toner cartridges with mine. Enough to do several hundred prints. There are high capacity toner cartridges available that are supposed to do over 20,000 prints.

It depends upon the material being printed. If you do lots of photos, the cartridges don't last as long because so much black ink is required in the process. If I had to guess, I would say about 100 copies.
