Frequently Asked Questions

What does this four-pack mean for a firm with several offices?

Four CF289X black cartridges — the 89X — rated at 10,000 pages each, bought once and held where the firm's printing is heaviest. Instead of each office minding its own toner, the pack lets the firm treat cartridges as shared stock that flows to whichever office's printer is running dry.

Do all the offices' printers really take the same cartridge?

Those on HP's Enterprise 500-series monochrome platform do — the LaserJet Enterprise M507n, the other M507 models and the M528 multifunction family. An office confirms its machine from the label on its current cartridge or its supplies status page: CF289X either way.

How should the firm decide which office gets a unit first?

By the printer that is actually fading, not by seniority. Cartridges empty by pages printed, so the busiest litigation floor will call first and quietest office last. The pack's job is to make that call costless — the unit is already bought and on a shelf.

Closing documents at one office are streaking while another office is fine. Why?

Because the cartridges live separate lives. The streaking office's unit is exhausted: rock it gently side to side for a short reprieve, then fit a fresh cartridge from the stock and let the old one's fate remind purchasing to watch the shared count.

How should unissued cartridges be kept at the holding office?

Sealed in their bags, flat, in a cool dry cabinet. Toner does not dry out in storage, so a unit can sit through a quiet quarter and still print perfectly. Issue oldest stock first so the shelf rotates cleanly across the year.

What cover supports the firm's stock purchase?

The firm's stock is protected by a 1-year warranty on each cartridge, with 1-year free returns set out on our shipping and returns page. Orders travel from California, Illinois, Georgia and Pennsylvania, while support keeps Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST hours.

When should the firm order the next pack?

When the sealed count falls to one. With 10,000 pages behind each cartridge, the last CF289X unit still buys weeks of printing, so a last-unit trigger lands the next pack before any office stops mid-document. Do not wait for an office to report dry; the count on the shelf is the signal.

What does one page actually cost from this pack?

About nine-tenths of a cent. The pack costs $363.61 for four cartridges rated at 10,000 pages each, which is 40,000 pages in total. Dense closing sets pull the real figure up a little and plain text pulls it down, but the pack price divided by the pool is the honest planning number.

Should the pack stay together at one office or be split up?

Split it to where the printing is. One sealed unit per busy office beats four in a cupboard nobody visits, and each office keeps its own buffer. The holding office keeps a simple log of which office drew which unit and on what date, so purchasing can see consumption coming.

What do we do with an empty cartridge?

Take it out of circulation at once. Mark the carton spent so it cannot be mistaken for a spare, and set it aside for recycling. A spent unit left on the shelf is how a dry printer gets a dead cartridge fitted in a hurry, at the worst possible moment.
