Frequently Asked Questions

One in the printer, one in the drawer — is that the idea?

Exactly that. Toner fades at the worst moment, usually mid-job, and a drawer spare turns that into a two-minute swap instead of a stopped office waiting on a delivery. This 2 pack of the Canon 051 exists for that rhythm: load one, shelve one, reorder when the spare goes in.

What does the pair do to the price?

Two singles would cost $59.58. This pack costs $41.08 — $18.50 less — which is $20.54 per cartridge, and across the pack's 3,400 rated pages the rate works out to about 1.21¢ per page. The cartridges are the standard Canon 051, rated at 1,700 pages each; only the unit price changes.

How far does 3,400 pages of supply stretch?

At 75 pages a month, close to four years. At 200 pages a month, about seventeen months. At 400 pages a month, a little over eight months. Your mileage will vary with coverage — dense documents draw more toner per page than the standard test pages the rating is based on.

Should we step up to the 051H instead of doubling this cartridge?

That depends on pace. The high-yield Canon 051H puts far more pages in a single cartridge, which suits a printer in daily heavy use. This 2 pack suits a moderate rhythm where 1,700 pages per cartridge already lasts a comfortable stretch and a shelf spare is the main thing you want.

How do I check this pack fits my printer?

Check the cartridge coming out: if it is marked Canon 051, this pack holds its standard-yield replacement — two of them. The short code for this cartridge is 051K, and the same identification appears in your printer's supply information.

What cover do we get with a compatible pack like this?

Each cartridge is a third-party compatible, not Canon-made, and each is backed by a full one-year warranty with free returns for a year — see our shipping and returns page for the details. Support is available Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST.
