Frequently Asked Questions

Which cartridge does the LaserJet Enterprise 600 M601 take?

The M601 runs on the CE390A, also sold as the HP 90A — one and the same black cartridge. This listing is that unit: a full-capacity 10,000-page cartridge at $48.70, not a reduced starter cartridge of the kind sometimes bundled with a new printer.

Is this the same supply as the one listed for the bigger 600 models?

Yes. HP built the M601, its larger M602 and M603 siblings and the M4555 multifunction line around a single toner platform, so the cartridge that feeds your M601 is the standard 90A used across the family — the LaserJet Enterprise 600 M601 down the hall takes this same unit.

How far does 10,000 pages go in an M601 workgroup?

The M601 typically serves a small team printing everyday office volume. At a few hundred pages a week, one CE390A runs for months; in a workgroup that prints reports daily, expect to change it a handful of times a year. The rating is measured at standard coverage, so dense forms and statements land lower.

My M601 shows a supply warning but output still looks clean. What should I do?

Keep printing. The warning is calculated, not measured, and the cartridge usually has life left. When pages do start to lighten, remove the cartridge and rock it gently side to side to redistribute the toner — that buys time until the replacement is fitted.

Can the office manager change this cartridge, or does it need IT?

Anyone can. Open the M601's top cover, lift the old cartridge out by its handle, remove the seal from the new one and lower it in until seated. It takes about two minutes and the printer is ready again without a service call.

What if the cartridge turns out to be faulty?

It is backed by a 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns, so a unit that leaks, streaks or dies early comes back for a replacement or refund. Our support desk answers Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST.
