System and method for adjusting toner consumption

A replacement electronic circuit for use on a remanufactured toner cartridge including toner and electrical development components consuming a portion of said toner by printing a plurality of images while a voltage is applied to at least one of said electrical development components, the replacement electronic circuit comprising:

• electronic circuitry adapted for attachment to the remanufactured toner cartridge, the electronic circuitry storing an indication of the amount of toner remaining, the electronic circuitry further storing a value controlling the voltage applied to the at least one of the electrical development components,
• said electronic circuitry adapted for attachment to the remanufactured toner cartridge and determining when a predetermined amount of the toner remains in the remanufactured toner cartridge,
• said electronic circuit altering the amount of toner consumed to form images by changing the voltage level applied to the at least one of the electrical development components when additional images are printed, when the predetermined amount of toner remains in the remanufactured toner cartridge.
