Dear All,
I am trying to assess the usage of our printers at work against their recommended monthly output. The difficulty I am coming up against seems to be a variation in how HP have constructed their spec sheets over time. Some of the more modern spec sheets have listed a Mothly Recommended Volume while the older spec sheets (like that of the HP LaserJet 4100) only have the Monthly Duty Cycle listed. The difference between these two figures is of not insignificant magnitude which is making me worry about my comparisons. Would a comparison of page count against monthly duty cycle be effective or should I really be striving to track down the recommended monthly volumes to compare against the page counts from the printers? I am also somewhat sketchy on the actual difference between the two. It seems strange that a recommended page volume can be 10,000 pages but then a monthly duty cycle returns a value of some 40,000 pages. Any clarification would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Tim
