Frequently Asked Questions

How do I confirm this is the cyan cartridge and not another color?

By its codes: this unit is 1T02KVCUS0, sold as the TK-592C. The C in both codes is the cyan marker, and it prints right on the cartridge label, so compare it against the empty unit you pull from the cyan slot of your FS-C2026MFP before you open the bag. If the codes match, it is the right cartridge.

Our prints have lost their blues and greens. Is this the fix?

Very likely. Faded skies, washed-out logos and greens that drift toward yellow are the classic signs of a cyan cartridge running dry. Before ordering, pull the old cyan unit out, rock it gently side to side a few times and refit it — if the color comes back briefly and then fades again, the cartridge is genuinely at the end of its life and this replacement is the answer.

Do the other three cartridges need to come out for the swap?

No. The cyan slot opens and closes on its own. Take the empty unit out, unbag this one, slide it in until it seats, and the black, magenta and yellow cartridges are never disturbed.

How far does the 5,000-page rating stretch in a real office?

The rating is measured at 5% page coverage, and cyan is rarely the heavy color in everyday documents — it shows up in charts, letterheads and the occasional photo. In a text-led office a single TK-592C commonly covers many months of work; heavy color printing will work through it faster, which is true of any cartridge rated the same way.

Is this a full cartridge or a small starter unit?

Full size, rated for the complete 5,000 pages. It is not a shortened introductory cartridge of the kind sometimes bundled with a new printer — the $39.43 buys the standard-capacity TK-592C.

What cover comes with it if something goes wrong?

This cartridge is covered by a 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns, with the terms published on our shipping & returns page. Orders are dispatched from our warehouses in IL, PA, GA and CA.

How can I catch the cyan fading before an important job goes out?

Keep one familiar color document — a letterhead page or a standard chart — and reprint it every few weeks. Cyan decline is gradual, so comparing the fresh print against an older copy shows the drift in blues and greens before it becomes obvious on new work. When the comparison print looks washed out, the TK-592C is near its end and the swap can be planned instead of discovered mid-job.

Does printing mostly black text still use up the cyan cartridge?

Barely. Pages printed purely in black and white leave the 1T02KVCUS0 essentially untouched, which is why a text-led office can see a single cyan cartridge last for many months. Cyan is drawn on only when a page actually carries color — the charts, letterheads and occasional photographs in an otherwise monochrome workload — so its consumption follows your color output, not your total page count.

How should a spare TK-592C be kept until its turn comes?

Sealed in its bag, lying flat in a cool, dry spot away from sunlight and heat. Stored like that it holds its full 5,000-page capacity indefinitely for practical purposes. When the fitted cyan finally fades, rock the spare gently side to side before sliding it in, so the toner is evenly spread and the first color page comes out at full strength.

What do I do with the empty cyan unit?

Hold on to it until the replacement has printed a few real jobs cleanly — only a day or two — then send the empty for recycling, kept in its bag so no loose toner escapes. If the old cartridge was removed for a fault rather than emptiness, keep it aside and contact support instead: this cartridge carries a 1-year warranty, and the unit itself supports any claim.

About This TK-592C Cyan Cartridge

The TK-592C (1T02KVCUS0) is the cyan member of Kyocera's TK-592 family, rated at 5,000 pages and made for the FS-C2026MFP, FS-C2126MFP, FS-C2526MFP and FS-C2626MFP multifunction machines and the FS-C5250DN printer. Cyan is the cartridge that keeps skies blue and corporate greens honest, and it tends to announce its end through color drift rather than an empty warning, which is why this listing leads with the symptom. Sold singly at $39.43 so you replace only the color that has actually run out, it is part of our Kyocera Mita compatible range. If you want the code checked against your model before ordering, our support team answers Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST.
