Frequently Asked Questions

Which two codes should I match before ordering this cartridge?

Look for 1T02ML0US0 and TK-1142. Those are the two identifiers for this black toner cartridge, so matching either code on your empty cartridge or printer supply list confirms that you are looking at the right replacement.

Is this listing for one cartridge or several?

This is a single cartridge. You receive one individually packaged black TK-1142 unit, making this the practical choice when one printer needs toner now and you do not need spare cartridges on hand.

How much printing should I expect from this one cartridge?

The cartridge is rated at up to 7,200 pages. Actual use depends on page coverage, document density and printer settings, but the rating gives a useful planning figure for correspondence, forms, invoices and everyday office documents.

Will it work in my FS-1035 MFP?

Yes. It is made for the FS-1035 MFP, and it is also compatible with the FS-1135 MFP and ECOSYS M2035dn. Check that the cartridge being removed carries the TK-1142 designation before installing the replacement.

Should I remove the packaging seal before I am ready to print?

No. Keep the cartridge sealed until installation. Just before fitting it, gently rock it from side to side to distribute the toner evenly, remove the protective packaging as directed, insert it until it seats properly and close the printer.

What help is available if the first prints look uneven?

Remove the cartridge and gently rock it again; toner can settle during transit or storage. If the output still looks uneven after a few pages, contact our support team Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST. This purchase is covered by a 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns, with the full terms on our shipping & returns page.

What does the TK-1142 cost per page?

At $29.22 for a rating of up to 7,200 pages, the arithmetic is about 0.41 cents per page. That figure assumes ordinary office coverage — correspondence, forms and invoices, exactly the load an FS-1035 MFP or M2035dn typically carries. Denser documents draw toner faster and push the real figure up somewhat, but for budgeting a single machine's running costs, four-tenths of a cent per page is the number this cartridge gives you.

On the FS-1135 MFP, do copies use this cartridge the same way prints do?

Yes. A copied page is printed by the same engine and the same TK-1142 cartridge as a page sent from a computer, so copying volume counts fully against the 7,200-page rating. Scanning to a folder or email, by contrast, puts nothing on paper and uses no toner at all. Offices that scan more than they print often find a cartridge lasts noticeably longer than their page counts first suggest.

I bought this before the old cartridge ran out — how do I keep it ready?

Leave the TK-1142 sealed in its packaging, lying flat in a cool, dry spot away from direct sunlight and radiators. Toner does not dry out, so a cartridge bought ahead simply waits; there is no benefit to opening it early, and the seal keeps dust and moisture away from the unit. When the printer finally asks, rock the cartridge gently side to side before fitting it, as you would with any freshly installed unit.

What should I do with the empty cartridge after the swap?

Return the spent TK-1142 to the packaging the new one came out of, which keeps residual toner contained, and pass it to a toner-cartridge recycling collection rather than general office waste. It is worth keeping the empty until the replacement has printed cleanly for a day or two — if output disappoints, support may ask about the old unit, and your purchase is covered by a 1-year warranty with 1-year free returns in any case.
