Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly arrives when I order this C5500 cartridge?

One black toner cartridge — the 43324404 — in a sealed box. This listing is the single-cartridge option for the C5500 family, rated at 6,000 pages. There are no color cartridges in the box; cyan, magenta and yellow for these printers are separate cartridges with their own part numbers.

How long will one cartridge keep a C5500 printing?

The rating on this listing is 6,000 pages. A small office printing around 200 pages a week would take the better part of seven months to use it up; a desk printing that much every day would finish it in about six weeks. Your real number lands wherever your page volume and coverage put it between those poles.

Which printers is this single cartridge listed for?

The Oki C5500n, C5650dn, C5650n, C5800 and C5800Ldn. The listing is named after the C5500 because that is the machine most buyers are shopping from, but the 43324404 cartridge itself is the same unit whichever of those printers it goes into.

Is this genuine Oki toner?

No — it is a compatible 43324404 cartridge sold under our Clever Supplies brand. More of the range sits on our Okidata brand page. You are buying a third-party cartridge built to the same specification, which is where the $42.48 price comes from.

What is the per-page cost on this single?

Dividing the $42.48 price by this listing's 6,000-page rating gives about 0.71 cents per page for black toner. If you go through cartridges quickly, the multi-cartridge listings of the same 43324404 bring that figure down further; for a printer that sips toner, one cartridge at a time is the sensible buy.

What if something goes wrong with it?

The cartridge is covered by a 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns, set out in our shipping and returns policy. We ship from IL, PA, GA and CA warehouses, and support is staffed Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST.

About This C5500 Black Cartridge

The straightforward listing in this family: one 43324404 black cartridge, $42.48, rated at 6,000 pages on this listing, for the C5500n and its C5650 and C5800 relatives. Nothing about it needs decoding — it is the cartridge you order when the printer says black is low and you want a single replacement on the shelf-side of the machine by the time the old one gives out. Buy one, print on it for months, and reorder when the low-toner warning comes back.
