You have to read the manual to discover this, but the default 'starter' cartridge that comes with the printer is only half full. Figure 1,000 pages, tops. As a matter of coincidence, mine just ran out and I have to buy one on my way home tonite.

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.

Not sure. Haven't kept track. However, I use my printer in my home office environment which means I don't print much each day but at times I may print half a ream of paper! I can tell you this: I put in a high yield cartridge and it last almost a complete year. I just replaced my cartridge with another high yield. Hope this helps. Specs say you should get 6,000 sheets of text and I totally agree that from my experience you will get at least that.

I don't Know with your printer. It did with mine. Just when you use it always print a sample. Then you can continue printing.

I have never tried to count the maximum copies my printer can make. But I can tell you it is not many, for the ink dries very quickly if you do not keep on printing. Even if the ink does not dry, the ink gets used up very quickly. So, both ways. I will stay on the 300 side. (or less)

Hi,Thank you for your interest in this set.What I can tell you for sure is that the new printer come with starter cartridges and they do not print nearly as many as the regular sets of cartridges that are sold separately in sealed retail boxes as shown in our listing.The number of prints these will give you depends on what you print and I will not be able to give you exact count.What is listed in HP sight refers to 5% of a page being printed. If you are printing pictures and other that take more than 5% of the page in print, you would of course get less prints per cartridges.I hope I was able to answer your questions.

How many pages does this ink print out? What is the capacity of each cartridge ?

The "starter" cartridges are not full that come with the printer. It also depends on what you are printing. Manufacturers base their print yields on 5% coverage of page.

It does come with a starter toner ink cartridge, I purchased mine last year so I can't recall the number of pages it printed. The printer has performed very well.

Why won't printer print in black. Cleaned heads several times and nothing helps. All ink cartridges are over half full. Colors print great, but black won't print. Not an answer, the same question as asked before. Can't find answer to question someone else asked.

Only Start up toner printing approx. 200 pages. Toner replacement is expensive, this printer prints beautifully.

How many pages are the starter cartridges rated for? Also does this really work with Apple's Airprint? Canon says it doesn't.

Since I am still using the cartridge that I purchased, I have no idea. Even if I was out, I don't keep track of the number of pages I print on a print cartridge. Actually, my experience with toner cartridges depends on how you print... mostly text = more pages, mostly pictures (more toner per page) = less pages yield. Right now, I am expecting a yield that is similar to the yield of the official Brother cartridge.

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.

Hi Anne, I have never counted how many pages it prints. I use it for printing product labels. I will say that I get a LOT more printing out of the cartridges for this printer... AND much better color quality, than I did on my expensive HP. I will never buy HP again. I am very happy with this ink and how much more I can get from the cartridges. These cartridges go down to the very last drop too. It can show them being empty and I will try to squeeze out what I can... and it will continue to print until there is nothing left to give. :)

Yes, it comes with starter cartridges. however, be warned, you MUST have the starter cartridge in order for it to initialize/install. We bought several of these printers at the same time (love them) but ran out of ink in one and use the starter cartridge from one of the unopened boxes - and have now spent 4 hours trying to resolve how to get a replacement starter cartridge. Frustrating.

Well I have printed over 50 pages thus far no problems. I really cannot tell you how many pages it will print. However I brought one from B'j's warehouse and it lasted me two semester in college. If it last me to January 2014 I will be happy. Hope this is helpful.
