Frequently Asked Questions

Nobody here prints much on their own, yet the black on our CLX-6260FW empties steadily — why?

Because small jobs add up invisibly. Ten people each printing a few letters, labels and forms a day quietly total hundreds of pages a week, and nearly all of that work is black text. The CLT-K506L carries all of it. A shared machine's black empties on the team's combined output, not on any one person's printing.

Which of the machine's jobs actually draw on this cartridge?

Prints and copies do, page for page, along with faxes the machine prints out. Scanning does not — a document scanned to a folder or an inbox spends no toner at all. So a week of heavy scanning leaves the CLT-K506L untouched, while a week of copying spends it exactly as printing would.

Which printers is this black listed for?

This listing is named for the CLX-6260FW, and the cartridge itself — the CLT-K506L — is the listed black supply for the CLP-680ND and CLX-6260FD. If your machine's toner bay or status page calls for that code, this is the supply it wants, whichever badge the front of the printer carries.

How do we keep a shared machine from running dry mid-week?

Hold one spare and reorder on the warning, not on the empty. The low-toner message arrives with a reserve of pages still in the cartridge, which is your ordering window: fit nothing, order one CLT-K506L, and swap when it lands. A shared machine with a shelf spare behind it effectively never stops for toner.

What does the team's black printing cost per page?

The cartridge is $44.71 against a 6,000-page rating — roughly 0.75 cents of black per page at standard coverage. For a whole team's everyday documents that is a small, predictable number, and the high-yield fill keeps it there instead of at standard-cartridge rates.

What warranty and returns stand behind it?

Each cartridge is warranted against defects for one year, and returns are free throughout that year; the full wording is on our shipping and returns page. Orders leave from the nearest of our warehouses in IL, PA, GA and CA, and the support desk is staffed Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST.
