FS-3540MFP

Kyocera FS-3540MFP printer

Built for the workgroup whose print queue never really empties, the Kyocera FS-3540MFP is a monochrome multifunction from the mid-30s pages-per-minute class — printing, copying and scanning at a pace that keeps a whole department moving. It runs on a single black cartridge, the TK-352, Kyocera part number 1T02J10US0 and also written TK352 without the dash, rated for approximately 15,000 pages per ISO/IEC 19752. Kyocera's European catalog sells the same toner as the TK-350.

Capacity is the theme of this machine. A 15,000-page cartridge in a fast MFP means the supply shelf is visited on a schedule the office chooses, not whenever a small cartridge happens to die mid-run, and Kyocera's durable imaging components are built to hold up under that kind of sustained daily load. Departments that scan to folder or email all day and print in bursts get a single device — and a single toner code — to manage, which is exactly the simplicity a busy workgroup needs from its hardware.

Which cartridge should you buy?

At 15,000 pages per cartridge, even a single spare covers a department for a long stretch — that is the right buy for a machine whose monthly volume is steady and predictable. Busier sites should think in pairs and triples: a workgroup MFP that stops for toner stops everyone at once, and the multi-packs bring the per-cartridge cost down each step. The five and ten packs belong in central supply rooms feeding several machines from this family. Every listing is the same cartridge in a different quantity, offered as a compatible with a 1-year warranty and 1-year returns.

Chip, toner and everyday use

High-volume machines reward small disciplines. Fit the new cartridge with a gentle side-to-side rock so the toner bed starts level, let the MFP finish its recognition and calibration cycle before releasing the queue, and keep the paper path fed with dry stock — most "toner problems" on a busy MFP turn out to be damp paper or an interrupted calibration. The 15,000-page rating assumes standard test coverage, so a department printing dense forms should expect somewhat less and keep the spare count one higher than instinct suggests.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which toner does the Kyocera FS-3540MFP use?

The TK-352 black cartridge, Kyocera part number 1T02J10US0, rated for approximately 15,000 pages. It is the only toner this model takes.

Does the FS-3540MFP have fax?

No — it prints, copies and scans, but fax is not built in. The fax-equipped model in this family is the FS-3640MFP, and it uses the same TK-352 toner.

Is the TK-352 the same as the TK-350 I see in European listings?

Yes — TK-352 is the North American designation and TK-350 the European one for the same cartridge. This page stocks the US TK-352 listings.

How accurate is the 15,000-page yield?

It follows ISO/IEC 19752 at standard coverage. Real departments printing forms and reports usually land reasonably close; coverage-heavy work shortens the run, which is why a spare on the shelf matters more than the exact figure.
