Laserjet 1012

HP's LaserJet 1012 followed the 1010 as a slightly stepped-up personal printer in 2003, aimed at small offices that wanted a touch more capability. The recipe stayed the same: compact size, sharp monochrome output, and dead-simple operation.

The cartridge is the HP 12A (Q2612A), or the high-yield HP 12X (Q2612X). We carry compatible 12A/12X toner and genuine OEM HP cartridges.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the Q2612A and Q2612X cartridges for the HP Laserjet 1012?

Both the Q2612A (HP 12A) and the Q2612X (HP 12X) fit the HP Laserjet 1012; the X is simply the high-yield version that lasts longer per cartridge. The cartridges are physically interchangeable, so pick whichever matches your print volume.

What should I do with the empty Q2612A from my HP Laserjet 1012?

Do not throw the empty Q2612A in the trash — HP runs a free cartridge-recycling program, and many office stores accept used toner. Drop the spent HP 12A cartridge from your HP Laserjet 1012 at a collection point instead.

How do I replace the toner in the HP Laserjet 1012?

Replacing the Q2612A in the HP Laserjet 1012 takes about a minute: open the front door, lift out the empty cartridge, take the new HP 12A out of its bag, pull the sealing tape, and push it firmly into place. The HP Laserjet 1012 will recognize the new cartridge automatically.
