I love my Xerox Phaser 6139N laser printer, it is a great printer and cost under £200 but one small problem is that a new set of 4 toners costs £272.00 !!!
Earlier today my Xerox Phaser 6139N said that it had run out of magenta toner so naturally I put in new cartridge. I was just about to throw the old one away but I decided that the bright pink powder warranted a closer inspection so I emptied out the remaining toner onto the table and to be honest I think it was good for a fair few extra pages.
This is how much toner was left from an EMPTY toner cartridge.
I then decided to do some more detective work and I actually weighed the empty toner cartridge and compared the weight with a full toner cartridge.
Full toner cartridge weighs 87 grams.
Empty toner cartridge weighs 72 grams.
Each toner cartridge contains 15 grams of toner.
The cost of toner is £4.60 per gram.
For comparison the cost of gold at todays price is £30.54 per gram.
