Xpress M2625D
Automatic duplexing is the M2625D's headline over the base M2625 — every job can print double-sided without manual flipping. Duplex users print more pages per cartridge in practice, which makes the high-yield MLT-D116L the smarter buy over the standard D116S for this machine. Both fit, both work with the separate MLT-R116 drum, and our compatible versions cost far less than OEM.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I get the MLT-D116S or the MLT-D116L for the Xpress M2625D?
Both fit the Xpress M2625D the same way; the MLT-D116L high-yield cartridge holds more toner and delivers a lower cost per page, while the MLT-D116S standard cartridge is cheaper upfront. A mono laser printer with automatic duplexing and a separate drum with regular volume benefits from the L — fewer interruptions and cheaper pages. Occasional printers should stick with the S, since toner slowly degrades and there is no advantage in buying capacity that sits unused for a year.
The Xpress M2625D says to replace the imaging unit. Is that the same as the toner?
No — the Xpress M2625D keeps toner and imaging separate. The MLT-D116S or MLT-D116L is the toner cartridge you swap regularly; the MLT-R116 imaging unit (drum) lasts through multiple toner cartridges and is replaced far less often. A replace-imaging-unit message means drum print quality has degraded, not that toner is out. Swapping toner will not clear a drum warning, and vice versa.
Prints from my Xpress M2625D are faded. Toner or drum?
Check the easy causes first on the Xpress M2625D: toner-save mode left on, or a low MLT-D116S/MLT-D116L that needs a gentle side-to-side shake to redistribute powder. If fading persists at normal density with fresh toner, the MLT-R116 imaging unit is the next suspect — a worn drum prints pale no matter how full the toner is. Fading plus repeating marks down the page points squarely at the drum.
