50% covered in ink is 2.5 times more covered than 20%, so the toner will print 2.5 times fewer copies. 6000 divided by 2.5 is 2400.
Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

You don't have to shovel the sidewalks in my neighborhood. Likely because we don't have sidewalks.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
P-C, you should have said you counted all the pixels on all 6000 pages....

I had it backwards, if each page is 20% covered, then you should get 5 times as many pages than if each page was 100% covered. So 100% covered should yield 1200 pages and @ 50% covered twice that: 2400.

Just got my PBS email and realized Downton Abbey is written by the guy who wrote Gosford Park. More reasons to watch.
Oooh, I was wondering if anyone else was watching that. I read about it on Smart Bitches and watched it on-line last night. I QUITE liked -- even though I find Gosford Park nigh unwatchable -- and will be DVRing the rest of them.

Really liking Downton Abbey so far. So many agendas.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
If by "unwatchable" you mean fricken AWESOME, I agree!
