Cross-reference: HP CF226A, the 26A standard-yield toner cartridge (3,100 pages), is the same cartridge Canon sells as Canon Cartridge 052 (standard yield, 3,100 pages) and Cartridge 052H (high yield, 9,200 pages) for the Canon imageCLASS LBP214dw, LBP215dw, MF424dw, MF426dw and MF429dw printers (ISO/IEC standard yields).
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does this listing carry two cartridge codes?
Because this cartridge family answers to both. The cartridges in this pack are the ones HP designates CF226A — the 26A — and the same family is also cataloged under the CF226X, or 26X, designation. Rather than pretend one code exists and the other does not, this listing names both, so whichever code your printer's documentation cites, you can recognize the cartridge.
What is actually in the box?
Four black cartridges of that dual-code family. One installs now; the other three wait as shelf stock for the same machine or its siblings.
Which printers are these for?
The LaserJet M402dn and its M402 and M426 relatives — the Pro M402d, M402dw and the M426fdw family included. Check the code printed on the cartridge you remove: CF226A or CF226X both lead here.
How do I avoid ordering the wrong thing next time?
Write the code from the cartridge itself on a label inside the printer's door. Manuals and order histories mix the two designations freely, and the cartridge's own stamp is the only witness that never argues. Photographing the label on a phone works just as well for whoever does the ordering from elsewhere in the building.
Should all four cartridges go into service at once?
Only if you run several of these printers. For a single machine, one cartridge works while the rest stay sealed — toner keeps its quality in the box, and the rotation stays simple.
What support and returns come with the pack?
A 1-year warranty covers every cartridge, and 1-year free returns are explained on our shipping and returns page. We ship from Illinois, Pennsylvania, Georgia and California, and our team is on hand Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST.
About This 26A Dual-Code Four Pack
Four black cartridges sold honestly under both of their designations — CF226A (26A) and CF226X (26X) — for the LaserJet Pro M402 and M426 families. Dual-code listings exist because buyers search by the code in front of them; this page simply refuses to make you guess which name we filed it under. More supplies for these printers are under HP. The pack is priced at $74.42.
