Frequently Asked Questions

Why would a site with several production copiers buy the GPR-17 three at a time?

Because a fleet of imageRUNNER 5070, 5570 and 6570 machines all drink from the same cartridge. One Canon GPR-17 (0279B003AA) 3-pack puts a cartridge beside each machine — or two installed and one on the shelf — so a change never waits on a delivery. For a copy room running more than one device in this family, the 3-pack is a stocking unit, not a bulk gamble.

What does each cartridge in this 3-pack actually cost?

The pack is $227.00 for three cartridges, which is $75.67 per cartridge against $88.00 bought singly — a saving of $37.00 across the pack. Per page, the toner cost falls from roughly 0.20 cents on a single to about 0.17 cents in the 3-pack. On machines that measure output in tens of thousands of pages, that gap compounds quickly.

How much output does the whole pack represent?

Three cartridges at 45,000 rated pages each is 135,000 pages of capacity. Spread across a small fleet, that can be a full quarter of production copying; concentrated on one heavily used machine, it is three change intervals with no reordering in between. The ratings assume standard 5% coverage, so dense copy work will draw the real total down and plain text will push it up.

How should three cartridges be rotated through the machines?

Mark the arrival date on each box and always install the oldest cartridge first. Keep the unopened stock sealed, flat, in a cool dry spot away from copier exhaust heat and direct sun. Rotating oldest-first keeps any one cartridge from sitting on the shelf for years, and the date marks make it obvious at a glance which box goes into the machine next.

If one cartridge in the pack underperforms, what happens?

Each cartridge is backed individually: the pack carries our 1-year warranty against defects and 1-year free returns, and a single weak cartridge is handled on its own without sending back the rest of the pack. The full terms are on our shipping and returns page, and support answers Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST.

Where does the pack ship from?

Orders ship from whichever of our four US warehouses — Illinois, Pennsylvania, Georgia or California — puts the stock closest to you. For a production floor, that means a 3-pack ordered when the shelf spare goes into a machine is typically replenished from within the country, not from overseas.
