Very High Ink Consumption On The Phaser 8400

Hello, I own a phaser 8400. The printer is not constantly on, but I only start it when I need some quality color printing done. I noticed that the printer consumes a lot of the ink cartridge, in such a way that I needed to empty the waste tray already 2 times (and I only printed about 15 pages). Surely this is not normal behavior is it?
