LaserJet Enterprise MFP M528dn
A shared monochrome workhorse with scanning built in, the LaserJet Enterprise MFP M528dn puts print, scan and copy on the office Ethernet, with automatic duplex for two-sided jobs. It runs on the HP 89A family — the standard CF289A and the high-yield CF289X, also sold as the 89X — and the listings on this page are compatible versions of those two cartridges.
An MFP's toner budget is easy to underestimate, because the print queue is only part of its work: every copy run prints too, and walk-up jobs arrive all day from people who never appear in any print log. The M528dn's supply plan has to cover that invisible traffic, which is why shared multifunctions reward a high-yield default and a spare that lives next to the machine.

Also stocked: the same cartridges under sibling model names
The grouped table below holds the same two cartridges as they are listed under sibling model names on this page. It is a listing map, not a different set of supplies.
Which cartridge should you buy?
For a shared MFP, the high-yield options cut the number of cartridge swaps, and the CF289X stocked here is the high-yield cartridge to build the routine around. HP's documentation for this model also names a CF289Y high-yield cartridge, but no CF289Y listing is stocked on this page. For lighter use, the standard CF289A does the job at a lower per-cartridge cost. Singles suit a first restock; the 2-pack and 4-pack listings suit an office that would rather open a cabinet than place an order when the gauge drops.
Chip, toner and everyday use
On a multifunction, the supply gauge covers every function at once, so check it before a big copy run as well as before print jobs. A fresh cartridge registers through its chip when it seats; if the panel keeps showing the old level, reopen the toner door and let it read again. Keep the spare sealed, flat and close to the machine, and remember that rated yields assume standard test coverage — copy-heavy months of dense originals will land below the rating.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which toner cartridges does the LaserJet Enterprise MFP M528dn use?
The standard CF289A and the high-yield CF289X, stocked here in compatible singles and multi-packs. A CF289Y high-yield cartridge is also documented for this model but is not listed on this page.
Do copies on the M528dn use the same cartridge as prints?
Yes. Copying prints through the same engine and the same cartridge; scanning, by contrast, captures the page digitally and uses no toner at all. Both listings families above feed every printed page the machine makes.
Why did the toner alert stay on after I changed the cartridge in the M528dn?
The panel updates once the new cartridge's chip is detected. Reseat the cartridge firmly or restart the MFP; if the alert survives both, the cartridge itself should be exchanged under its one-year warranty.
Does the M528dn need a separate drum unit?
No separate drum is among the listings for this model on this page. The toner cartridge is the supply that gets replaced when output fades or the gauge runs out.
