Frequently Asked Questions

What toner cartridge does the LaserJet P1606 use?

The LaserJet P1606 takes the CE278A toner cartridge. Always match the cartridge code to your exact model number before ordering.

Why doesn't my LaserJet P1606 recognize the new CE278A cartridge?

Reseat the CE278A cartridge firmly in the LaserJet P1606 and check that every protective seal and pull tab was removed. If the message stays, power the printer off and on so it re-detects the cartridge.

What should I do when the LaserJet P1606 shows a toner-low warning?

A toner-low alert on the LaserJet P1606 means the CE278A cartridge is nearly empty, though you can usually keep printing for a while. Order a replacement now so you have one ready when quality starts to fade.
