Frequently Asked Questions

Which cartridge feeds a LaserJet 3015 MFP?

One cartridge does everything: the Q2612A, the 12A black cartridge. Printing, copying and faxing on the 3015 MFP all draw from that single unit, so this listing — one cartridge at $28.15 — is the machine's complete consumable.

Does copying use toner the same way printing does?

Yes. A copy is a printed page made from the scanner instead of a computer, and it spends toner identically. Scanning a document to a file, by contrast, uses no toner at all — worth knowing when you estimate how fast a cartridge is being consumed.

What is the cartridge rated at?

2,000 pages, counting every printed page however it was produced — computer print, walk-up copy or incoming fax. A busy front desk produces all three, so the rating is best read as 2,000 pages of mixed work.

Incoming faxes print automatically. Does that affect planning?

It does: the machine can spend toner while nobody is watching, overnight faxes included. That is the strongest argument for keeping a sealed spare beside a fax-connected MFP, so a heavy fax morning never meets an empty cartridge.

How is the cartridge changed?

Exactly as on the print-only machines — open the cover, lift the old unit out, rock the new Q2612A gently side to side, pull its sealing strip, seat it, and test with a copy as well as a print to confirm both paths are happy.

What if copies look fine but prints are pale, or the reverse?

Both paths share one cartridge, so a toner problem shows in both. If only one path misbehaves, suspect the document source or settings on that side; if both fade together, the cartridge is the place to start.

About This Cartridge for the LaserJet 3015MFP

An MFP earns its floor space by doing three jobs, and the LaserJet 3015 in its multifunction form asks for just one consumable in return: the Q2612A, rated at 2,000 pages. This cartridge at $28.15 feeds the prints, the copies and the faxes alike, which makes forecasting easy — when the pages fade, one swap restores all three jobs at once.

Every cartridge is covered by a 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns. Orders ship from the nearest of our IL, PA, GA and CA warehouses — see the shipping & returns page for delivery details — and our support team answers Monday–Friday, 9 AM–5 PM CST.
