Frequently Asked Questions

Which cartridges does this five-cartridge set contain?

Five cartridges spanning all four codes of the TK592 family — TK592K black, TK592C cyan, TK592M magenta and TK592Y yellow. The set is not four cartridges plus a fixed fifth chosen for you: the exact split between the codes is shown on the carton labels, so check them on arrival and you will know precisely which slot has a spare waiting and which has not.

Why stock five cartridges for a four-slot printer?

Because the slots do not empty at the same speed. Four cartridges renew every position once, and the fifth stays sealed as the reserve for whichever color runs down first — in most offices that is the black, rated at 7,000 pages against 5,000 for each color, but the labels let you see what your reserve actually covers.

How do the page ratings work across the set?

Every rating is per cartridge: TK592K at 7,000 pages and each of TK592C, TK592M and TK592Y at 5,000 pages, all at standard coverage. Plan your reordering around the individual cartridge in each slot rather than any combined figure — slots empty one at a time, and each replacement you fit starts its own full rating.

Must the whole set go into the printer at once?

Definitely not. Fit only the cartridge the printer is asking for and keep the rest sealed. The set is a small working stock, not a single installation: cartridges are drawn from it one by one, sometimes weeks apart, as each slot reaches the end of its toner.

What is the sensible way to store a set that is partly used?

Keep the unopened cartridges flat in the original carton, in a dry place out of direct sunlight. A useful habit is to note on the box which codes remain inside; then the next person to open it knows at a glance whether the slot they are changing is covered.

When should I think about ordering the next stock?

When the carton is down to its last sealed cartridge. At that point the reserve is gone, and the next slot to empty will mean a printer waiting on a delivery. Each cartridge in the set is covered individually by a 1-year warranty with 1-year free returns — see our shipping & returns page — so a single faulty unit is returned on its own, never the whole stock.

What is the first thing to do when this set arrives?

Read the carton labels and jot down the actual split — how many TK592K, TK592C, TK592M and TK592Y you are holding — and keep that note on or in the box. The set spans all four codes, and knowing your exact reserve per slot from day one is what turns the carton from a lucky dip into a stock you can plan around.

Two slots run low in the same week — which cartridge do I fit first?

The one whose output is already failing. A slot that is merely showing a warning still has printing left in it, while a slot whose colors have visibly shifted is costing you reprints now. Fit for the failing slot, note what remains in the carton, and let the warned slot wait for its own fade before you open its replacement.

What does the set work out to per cartridge?

At $133.98 for five cartridges, the average is about $26.80 per unit — an average across the codes, since the split between black and colors varies, and each cartridge still carries its own rating: 7,000 pages for TK592K and 5,000 for each color. As a budgeting figure it is handy: one box price covers a full renewal of every slot plus a reserve.

How should empties from the set be dealt with?

Each spent cartridge goes back into the packaging its replacement came out of, which keeps residual powder sealed and the empties identifiable by code. Keep them together and let them leave in one trip to a recycling point or with your electronics-adjacent waste. It is a small discipline, but it keeps the cupboard holding only live stock and makes the remaining count easy to trust.

About This TK592 Five-Cartridge Set

At $133.98, this set turns the TK592 toner supply into a small shelf stock: five cartridges covering the black, cyan, magenta and yellow codes used by the FS-C2026MFP, FS-C2126MFP, FS-C2526MFP, FS-C2626MFP and FS-C5250DN. It suits a busier single machine, or several of these printers sharing one supplies cupboard, where running out mid-week is the problem to avoid: every slot can be renewed once, and one cartridge remains in reserve against the next empty slot, whichever color it turns out to be. Part of our compatible Kyocera-Mita range, dispatched from our IL, PA, GA and CA warehouses, with support Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST.
