Frequently Asked Questions

What does the 3-pack do to the cost of a printed page?

It brings it to about 0.40 cents. Three Canon 120 cartridges (part number 2617B001AA) cost $60.28 in this box — $20.09 apiece against $32.42 bought singly — and together they are rated for 15,000 pages. Bought as three separate singles, the same toner would cost $97.26, so the pack keeps $36.98 in the office budget. Per page, that is the difference between roughly two-thirds of a cent and two-fifths of a cent, on every invoice, copy and report the machine produces.

Who is a 3-pack actually sized for?

An office that goes through a cartridge every month or two and is tired of reordering. At 1,500 pages a month, 15,000 rated pages is about ten months of toner handled in one purchase — roughly a working year with no mid-quarter scramble. It is also a natural fit for a two-machine office that wants one cartridge installed in each machine plus a single shared spare. If your imageCLASS D machine only prints a few hundred pages a month, be honest with the arithmetic: three cartridges could sit with you for years, and the 2-pack is the better-sized buy.

Will three cartridges ordered today still be good when I open the last one?

Yes, provided they stay sealed and sensibly stored — flat, in their bags, in a cool dry place away from heat and sunlight. Toner does not spoil on a schedule the way ink can; a sealed Canon 120 cartridge opened a year from now performs like one opened today. Write the delivery month on each box, rotate oldest-first, and only break a seal when a machine actually needs the cartridge.

Does this pack change anything about how the cartridges print?

No — and it is worth saying plainly. These are the same compatible Canon 120 (2617B001AA) cartridges, with the same 5,000-page rating, that we sell as singles and in the other pack sizes. The 3-pack changes only the unit price and how often you think about toner. Print quality, fit in the D-series machines, and the 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns behind every cartridge are identical across every listing of this cartridge.

Our copies have started showing a grey background haze. New cartridge time?

Maybe — but run the cheap test first. Print a page from a computer. If the haze appears on prints as well as copies, and rocking the cartridge gently side to side does not clear it, the cartridge is the likely cause and a swap is the fix. If prints are clean and only copies haze, wipe the platen glass and the white scanning strip under the lid; copier-side dirt produces exactly that symptom and a new cartridge will not cure it. With three cartridges on hand, the swap test costs you nothing but two minutes.

What protection comes with the pack?

Each of the three cartridges is covered individually by our 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns, and orders ship from our warehouses in Illinois, Pennsylvania, Georgia and California. The full terms live on our shipping and returns page, and support answers Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST if you would rather talk to someone before ordering a quarter's worth of toner.
