Frequently Asked Questions

What does this three-pack contain?

Three individually sealed Q7516A cartridges, each rated at 12,000 pages. These are large cartridges for a departmental machine — the LaserJet 5200 series — so three units are a serious stock: one in the printer, two in reserve, a comfortable posture for a machine a whole floor depends on.

Why stock three of a cartridge this big?

Because when a departmental printer stops, it is never one person's problem. A 12,000-page cartridge lasts a long time, which makes its end easy to forget until the morning it happens. Two spares mean that morning costs ninety seconds at the supply cupboard instead of a day of diverted printing.

How should the spares be stored?

Sealed, flat and together, in a cool dry store room — ideally on the same shelf as the machine's paper stock, so whoever loads paper sees the toner too. Toner powder does not dry out, so a cartridge held a year prints at full strength; oldest-first rotation keeps the stock tidy.

Can the three cartridges be shared across machines?

Yes. Any printer that takes the Q7516A can draw from the stock, so a site running two 5200-series machines can pool all three in one cupboard rather than guessing which machine needs one first. Each printer tracks only the cartridge inside it; the shelf stock belongs to whichever machine runs dry.

What happens if one cartridge from the pack is defective?

It is dealt with on its own. Every cartridge carries a 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns under the terms on our shipping and returns page, so a bad unit goes back while the rest of the stock keeps the department printing. We ship from warehouses in Illinois, Pennsylvania, Georgia and California, and support is available Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST.

What is the total price, and is anything else needed?

$128.19 is the complete price of the three-pack. The imaging drum is built into each of these cartridges, so there is no separate drum line item to budget for, and no subscription trails the order. Three cartridges arrive, and departmental toner planning is done for a long stretch.
