FS-1118MFP

Kyocera FS-1118MFP printer

Building on the FS-1018MFP platform, the Kyocera FS-1118MFP adds capability and stamina to the compact monochrome multifunction formula — and changes nothing about supplies. It shares the same cartridge as its smaller sibling, the TK18 black toner, rated for up to 7,200 pages per ISO/IEC 19752, sold here from a single cartridge to a 10-pack.

The extra headroom suits desks where the base model's pace started to lag but a departmental MFP would be overkill: more work flows through the same compact footprint, and nobody in the office has to learn a new supply routine, because stepping up within this family never complicates the supply closet. The cartridge you already stock is the cartridge this machine takes.

Which cartridge should you buy?

If you arrived here from the smaller sibling, your answer is easy: keep buying the TK18, and let your higher throughput decide the pack size. A busier MFP argues for the 3 or 5 packs so a changeover never waits on shipping; the 10-pack fits an office running several TK18 machines off one shelf. Singles remain the right call for a single lightly used unit. Every size is the same cartridge with the same page rating, backed by a 1-year warranty and 1-year returns — the only thing the bigger packs change is how often you order.

Chip, toner and everyday use

Toner changes on the FS-1118MFP are cartridge-only events: the drum is a separate long-life component that stays in place while TK18 units come and go. Watch your coverage when you forecast a cartridge — the up-to-7,200-page rating is an ISO figure at about 5% coverage, and copy-heavy work with dense originals will shorten real life. A cartridge that fades late in its run often responds to a gentle side-to-side rock, which levels the remaining toner; treat any recovery as a bridge to the replacement, not a revival. Keep the next cartridge boxed, flat and away from sunlight until the day it is needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the FS-1118MFP use the same toner as the FS-1018MFP?

Yes, identically — both machines run on the TK18 black toner cartridge. An office stepping up from one to the other keeps its stock, its spares and its ordering routine untouched.

How many pages should I expect from one cartridge?

Up to approximately 7,200 pages per ISO/IEC 19752 at standard coverage. Denser pages — forms, copies of dark originals, heavy text — will bring the real figure in below the rating.

Who should choose the FS-1118MFP over the smaller model?

Desks and small teams whose volume outgrew the base multifunction's pace but who do not need a departmental machine. The step up buys stamina and capability; supplies stay exactly as simple as before.
