Frequently Asked Questions

Let's start with the honest number: what does a page cost with this cartridge?

This single Canon 071 cartridge costs $50.80 and is rated at 1,200 pages, which works out to about 4.23¢ per page. We won't dress that up: it is not the cheapest way to print with these printers. Standard yield makes sense when volume is light and the lowest upfront price matters more than the per-page rate — and every larger option in this family exists for whenever your volume says otherwise.

How long does a 1,200-page cartridge actually last?

It depends entirely on your pace. At roughly 50 pages a month, a Canon 071 (5645C001) lasts around two years. At 100 pages a month, plan on about a year. A busier desk printing 300 pages a month will finish it in roughly four months. The 1,200-page rating is based on standard test pages, so dense, heavy-coverage documents will use it up faster.

Should I pay the extra $8.08 for the 071H instead?

The high-yield Canon 071H (5646C001) costs $58.88 and is rated at 2,500 pages — more than double the yield for $8.08 more, which brings the cost down to about 2.36¢ per page. If you print most weeks, the 071H is the better math. The standard Canon 071 is the right pick when the printer sits idle for long stretches, when you want the smallest possible outlay, or when you are trying a compatible cartridge in your printer for the first time.

Which printers does this cartridge fit?

The Canon 071 (5645C001) is the black cartridge for three Canon laser printers: the LBP-122DW, the MF273DW and the MF275DW. The same cartridge serves all three, so a home or office running more than one of them only needs to stock one cartridge type.

What does "compatible" mean here — is this made by Canon?

No. This is a third-party cartridge built to match the Canon 071 (5645C001) in fit and rated yield, and it is sold under the Clever Supplies name rather than Canon's. What stands behind it is our own cover: a full one-year warranty and one year of free returns, so trying a compatible cartridge does not mean carrying the risk yourself.

What happens if the cartridge gives me trouble?

Every cartridge we sell is covered for a full year, and returns are free for a year as well — the details are on our shipping and returns page. If you would rather talk to a person, our support team is available Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST.
