Toner Cartridges for HP LaserJet Pro CP1025nw Color Printer Hi, I'm considering this printer and have a few questions about the toner cartridges:1) How long does starter cartridge(s) last?2) Are there multiple cartridges, or just a single cartridge? 3) If a single cartridge, is it much more expensive to replace than those with multiple cartridges (espec. since black portion may need replaced even though color portion is almost full)?Thanks!

My mother just purchased one, so even though I haven't bought one myself, I set it up and have seen the specs.1: Starter cartridges are rated for ~500 pages... Standard cartridges rated for 1200 (black) and 1000 (cyan, magenta, and yellow).2: Multiple cartridges... one for each of the colors (C, M, Y, K).3: (N/A)

So, does this come with black and color cartridges? Can you adjust the amount of ink used in printing? Do I have to have special paper for a laser printer? Thanks you.

I have a 3051 and use refurbs all but when it was new. It recently began to "reject" the cartridges about every 10 pages or so. When I first installed the cartridges, it recognized a "used or..." cartridge, but didn't give me problems until I was about 1/2 to 3/4 through the cartridges. Each time it "rejected" it would make me 'realign" the cartridges. About 3 days ago it stopped allowing me to print at all. It put up an error code and I guess I will have to buy HP cartridges to be able to print. I have not had this problem with other "used" cartridges I bought via Amazon. Hope this helps.

I have a small commercial printing company and use my HP for faxing for us and customers. I just changed the cartridge two weeks ago(for the first time) after installing the printer almost a year ago. Black lasted a long time. I've only made a few color copies on it and they are still good to go.

It hasn't happened to me yet as I print mostly black, however I have noticed on several HP ink Jet products that you get an issue when one color runs out. As you know the manufacturers are in the business of selling toner and ink, rather than the machines, which they often give away. I have had good results with Brother printers, however I buy all my toner from Costco who sell both OEM and compatible toner cartridges.

Most printers have a starter toner. This one is a standard package. Good printer. Samsung printers have the secret on getting a lot of copies from a toner cartridge.

The color and black toner cartridges are separate. I have not personally refilled them (printer just came out last summer, still have toner) but I can confirm that they are separate.

The cartridge for the xp400 is different from the workforce 725 series. I checked on the inkreloader site, and they don't offer it for your printer, yet, probably because it's a printer all-in-one that has not been out very long. You can send the seller a message through Amazon and ask if they intend to have these cartridges for your printer. They are absolutely amazing, no leaks, etc, and the color is better than Epsons. I have had these cartridges for about a year now, and they do not dry up, like what one commentor said. He probably had a dried up printhead to begin with. I have refilled two of them, and they still work great. I hope this company never goes out of business. The cartridge for the xp400 is different from the workforce 725 series.

Well, I took out the Color Ink and the printer just sits with an error message. A color ink cartridge must be in place. The only thing I can suggest is to let the color cartridge run out of ink, then choose a "faxable print" option in the program if it's available. You can try the greyscale option, but I don't know if the greys use the black (lighter) or if they use the color ink. If you already own this printer, play around with these options. If you HAVEN'T already bought this, try a different printer. If you do A LOT of printing, you may want to consider a LASER printer. The BLACK ONLY ones have become quite affordable and the toner roll lasts a very long time. Well, I took out the Color Ink and the printer just sits with an error message.

HP, the manufacturer, tells the buyer on the package info approximately how many pages each ink cartridge should last. I own 2 printers that use this cartridge and I purchased the 2nd printer specifically because it is the newer model of the 1st printer and it uses the same cartridges. I have been super impressed with the life of these cartridges. My Lexmark I purchased a few years back only printer 500 black copies for the same ink cost with HP's 950XL that prints 2500 black pages. I use the XL version of the cartridge and it is supposed to get 2500 pages on the XL cartridge (and that sounds about right on actual use). So the regular cartridge (which is what comes with the printer) getting about 1800 pages does sound correct. I do recommend purchasing the 950XL cartridge if you do a lot of printing. It runs roughly $35 on Amazon.

I had it for about 18 months and I don't have any problems, I don't think any one is offering warranties for toners. toner are rated against how many pages it produce, really not about life span. how many pages do you print monthly and how does it compare with the HP toner?

Mine is 2 years old and I have filled the toner cartridges several times....I use a local company who specializes in refilling toner cartridges...they find away to refill anything !!!! It might be that the original starter cartridge which lasts a very short time is sealed

I have used OC Products and Printonic from Amazon in my printer like this. Most of the generic or refurbished cartridges that I have used worked well. I have had a few that did not. I recently got some very cheap ones from Meritline that worked when first installed, then after a few weeks, suddenly the printer did "not recognize" the cartridge and would not print. I tried a lot of things but nothing worked and I had to throw away those 2 cartridge, 2 black ink. My advice DO NOT get the very cheapest ones. Amazon has a feature that I like very much where it will let you know if the cartridges will work in your printer if you have it listed.

It comes with low capacity toner cartridge. However the printer it self is JUNK. It ran through a few reams of paper. The network card failed and it is $200 to replace. It is a brand new printer and dead as hell. I also bought a Dell laptop, high end. It lasted exactly 13 months. Had a KNOWN, by them, thermal problem. CPU cooked 1 month past warranty. Their attitude was YOUR TOUGH LUCK although much info on net about cooked CPU. Net is I WILL NEVER BUY another DELL anything. Caveat Emptor. Buy a lenovo computer. I did. I replaced printer with Brother 2270DW and no more problems. Brother laser printers superior to Dell, any day of week. It comes with low capacity toner cartridge. However the printer it self is JUNK.

Very Expensive. Genuine HP Black cartridges retail for $84, HP Magenta/Cyan/Yellow are around $120 each. Total for all four is over $500. That said, the black cartridges are rated for 2,200 pages, while the colors are rated for 2,600 pages. You can usually get coupon codes for buying them directly from HP- you get 10% off if you sign up for their rewards program. If you search the web you can find coupon codes for 15-20% off. You can buy off-brand toner, but people get very mixed results depending on aftermarket company. The cost-per-page is comparable to other laser printers.

Everytime I've purchased an OKI printer it has come with a full color set of toner (ink) - however, I believe it comes with "starter" toner cartridges - just meaning less toner per cartridge.

Yes it does. It comes with a starter toner cartridge that is good for 1,100 copies or so. I purchased this copier January 2011 and have NOT changed the starter toner cartridge YET. I copy approximately 40-50 items per month or less. Normally, I would have purchased an extra toner cartridge when I made the purchase, but I decided to wait and see. Now I am very happy that I did not get the extra one, because I saved money. But, real soon I will purchase a new toner cartridge because I am having to move the "lever" higher to get darker copies, which means that ink is getting low and/or running out. Before I put the new cartridge in, I will shake up the starter and put it back in. It will still have some ink left in it. I will have the new toner so that there will be no chance of me running out of ink. You know Murphy's Law. I just love this copier!!! Hope this answer helps you and others.

Hello Juan, Yes it comes with "introductory size toners" , meaning less than 50 % yield of the standard replacement toners. The standard toner yields being: black 1200 pgs, 3 color toners 1000 pgs. each. It is highly recommended to purchase a full set of replacement toners, at the same time, the printer is purchased. I hope this helps you.
