Xpress M2875FW
The Xpress M2875FW is the fully-wireless fax MFP of the fast mono line — every function available to every device on the network. It's the variant most likely to be shared widely, and widely-shared printers empty standard cartridges fast: the MLT-D116L high-yield is the practical choice. Our compatible MLT-D116 cartridges (S and L yields) fit, with the separate R116 drum lasting ~9,000 pages alongside.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I get the MLT-D116S or the MLT-D116L for the Xpress M2875FW?
Both fit the Xpress M2875FW 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 all-in-one with fax, wireless and a separate imaging 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.
How should I handle the MLT-R116 imaging unit in the Xpress M2875FW?
Drums are light-sensitive: when you remove the MLT-R116 from the Xpress M2875FW, work quickly and never leave it sitting in bright light, which permanently degrades print quality. Do not touch the drum surface — skin oils cause repeating spots on every page afterward. If prints show the same defect at regular intervals down the page, the drum is likely scratched and the unit needs replacing rather than the toner.
Are incoming faxes draining the toner on my Xpress M2875FW?
Yes — each received fax prints, consuming MLT-D116 toner, and junk faxes are pure waste on the Xpress M2875FW. Turn on junk-fax blocking and disable routine transmission reports to stop the silent drain. If the office rarely needs paper fax copies, look for receive-to-memory or fax-to-email forwarding so unwanted faxes never touch toner or the MLT-R116 drum.
