Default Laser printer toner usage

Not likely. Most cartridges are spec'd as so many pages of 3%
coverage. If they worked as that guy said, you'd only get 3% of the
pages before it ran out of toner.

He may have been misled by those cartridges having a magnetized toner
pickup rod. One look at those and it *seems* like that's what's going
on.


Well that`s what I thought, another thing is how would they get
adjustable densities of toner/ toner save etc. They do seem to waste
more toner than they use tho.
