LaserJet M140we cartridge low after 160 pages???

[MagPT]

Hi 

I recently bought the HP LaserJet M140WE and printed in total 160 pages and it shows already that the cartridge is low. Is it normal?? I extra invested in laserJet printer to avoid the hassle with continuous ink buying and now this?

how many pages can you actually print with one cartridge? 

thanks in advance for all replies.

Printers ship with a starter cartridge. Keep in mind that yield is based on a coverage of 5% (equivalent of double space type on full page) Any heavier black sections or bold type will reduce total yield. Standard purchase cartridge is rated at 950 pages.

Hi Andr-1611

I’m very surprised. I thought I’m buying a full-performance printer. Didn’t know that the new printers have such limitations. A person learns all his life🤣
thanks for your answer

Hi Repairatrooper

thank you very much for you feedback. Didn’t know that there is a starter cartridge, I thought all cartridges are provided with the same performance. I was really wondering how is it possible that my printer is already asking  for a new delivery… I’m disappointed… but that’s life or a business model for companies🤪 
It’s time to order a new cartridge 💪
