Very few service manuals specify the printer and printhead expected lifespans. The service manual for the MP830 specifies printer life as 5 years or 19000 pages, what ever comes first. The print head life is specified as the same as for the printer.
These estimates only applies to a printer using new OEM cartridges. Quality of a refill ink, skills and knowledge of the refiller, use of a resetter etc also affects the print head life.
