5949X Toner Cartridge

Just wondering if any of you track how many pages you get out of an average cartridge? I realize that legal size printed pages use more toner. I just used up one that barely lasted me a month. I am not going to say how many pages till I hear from others.
Thanks,
Shoshana

I assume you are asking about the toner cartridge for an HP 1320. I have the 5949X and I get several thousand pages - many months of printing.

Can I ask you how much paper you go through a month or how many signings you do? You can send me a private email if you like. Admittedly, I am doing a fair amount of VA/FHA packages and they are bigger.
TIA

I don't have your printer, however, I have been able to get about 20% more out of my toner than the spec sheet says by setting my quality to 300dpi. I don't use the toner saver feature as it is to light for my personal preferences, but setting it to 300 dpi doesn't show much.

My volume has been low so I really can't give you a good answer. I've been happy with the high-yield. I always keep a back-up cartridge on hand.
