+ Copy speed when printed on plain paper in the fastest mode. Copy speed may vary depending on copy mode, document complexity, type of paper used and number of copies. ^^ Yields based on ISO/IEC 24711 or ISO/IEC 29102 tests in default mode printing continuously. Actual yields will be lower with higher-density images, hot or dusty conditions, less frequent printing, or printing predominantly with one colour. All ink colours are used for printing and printer/all-in-one maintenance, and all colours have to be installed for printing. For print quality, part of the ink from the included cartridges is used for printer startup and a variable amount of ink remains in the cartridges after the "replace cartridge" signal.
