Frequently Asked Questions

Spell out the contents of this CM6040 mfp set.

CB380A black, CB381A cyan, CB382A yellow and CB383A magenta — HP's 823A black with the 824A color trio. Those four cartridges are the entire toner system of the Color LaserJet CM6040, and this set renews all of them.

What kind of page counts does a busy MFP get from the set?

Ratings say about 16,500 pages for black and about 21,000 for each color at standard coverage. A CM6040 earning its keep will spend those pages on a blend of copies and prints — both count equally against the cartridges — so the calendar life depends on the department's total paper throughput, not on which function produced it.

Is a full set better value than topping up single cartridges?

It is better logistics, which on a shared machine is the same thing. One $355.95 order covers the whole machine, restarts every cartridge's clock together, and ends the pattern of a different color failing every few weeks. The machine goes back to being equipment instead of a recurring errand.

Copies of color originals look muted while prints look right. Can both be true?

They can — a copy passes through scanning as well as printing, so it shows weaknesses twice. But when cartridges are old, toner is the shared ingredient in both paths, and a full fresh set is the sound first step: it gives the machine new toner everywhere, after which any remaining copy-only issue is clearly not a toner problem.

Do the cartridges need any preparation before fitting?

Just the basics from the cartridge's own instructions: unpack, remove the protective materials, and seat each one in its color-matched position. Nothing to configure, nothing to calibrate by hand — the machine handles the rest when it wakes up.

What backing does this set carry?

A 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns cover all four cartridges; support is available Monday–Friday, 9 AM–5 PM CST; and orders ship from Illinois, Pennsylvania, Georgia or California, the warehouse closest to you. The full policy is on our shipping & returns page. The set belongs to our compatible HP range.

About This Four-Color Set for the CM6040 MFP

The CM6040 asks its toner to serve two masters — the print queue and the copy glass — and this set answers for both. Four matched cartridges, renewed together, return the whole machine to the output quality it was installed to deliver.

The same four cartridges serve the Color LaserJet CP6015xh, Color LaserJet CM6030, Color LaserJet CM6030f, Color LaserJet CM6040, Color LaserJet CM6040f, Color LaserJet CP6015, Color LaserJet CP6015de, Color LaserJet CP6015dn, Color LaserJet CP6015n and Color LaserJet CP6015x. Each cartridge is also sold on its own — CB380A black, CB381A cyan, CB382A yellow and CB383A magenta — so a single color can be topped up without replacing the whole set.
