FS-C2126MFP
One step above the entry model in Kyocera's color MFP lineup, the FS-C2126MFP puts networked print, copy, scan and fax in one box for workgroups whose monthly color volume has outgrown the starter tier. It runs the TK-592 toner family — a complete four-color set, or single cartridges as each color runs down: black TK-592K at roughly 7,000 pages, and cyan TK-592C, magenta TK-592M and yellow TK-592Y at about 5,000 pages each. On the boxes, Kyocera's factory numbers read 1T02KV0US0 for black, 1T02KVCUS0 for cyan, 1T02KVBUS0 for magenta and 1T02KVAUS0 for yellow.
What separates this model from the FS-C2026MFP below it is the standard fax and the extra headroom for busier groups — without stepping up to the price of the departmental flagship systems. Kyocera's long-life imaging components are the other half of the story: the parts that usually wear out are built to keep going, so routine running costs stay concentrated in the toner itself.

Which cartridge should you buy?
Buy the color that has run out — each TK-592 cartridge is independent, so a yellow warning never means replacing cyan and magenta too. Black is the fast mover on most workgroup machines (roughly 7,000 pages against 5,000 for each color), which is why the black multi-packs exist: offices that print mostly documents with occasional color usually stock black in twos or threes and colors one at a time. The four-color set makes sense when you are setting up a machine, refreshing all four at once, or standardizing spares across several of these MFPs.
Chip, toner and everyday use
Every cartridge carries a chip the MFP reads on installation; push each unit home until it seats, and let the machine complete its start-up check before you send work to it. Color yields here are rated per ISO/IEC 19798, the color counterpart of the mono standard, again at about 5% coverage per color — presentation decks with full-bleed graphics will use color toner far faster than letters do. If one color starts to band or fade, take that cartridge out and rock it gently to level the toner inside before deciding it is finished.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which toner does the Kyocera FS-C2126MFP use?
The TK-592 family: TK-592K black (about 7,000 pages) and TK-592C, TK-592M and TK-592Y for cyan, magenta and yellow (about 5,000 pages each), rated per ISO/IEC 19798. In Europe the same cartridges are sold as the TK-590 series.
Does the FS-C2126MFP have a fax?
Yes — a standard fax is built in, which is the main step up from the FS-C2026MFP. Print, copy and scan are shared with the rest of the line.
What happens when only one color runs out?
You replace only that color. Each cartridge is a separate unit with its own toner level reporting, so the machine tells you exactly which one is empty.
What warranty backs these compatible cartridges?
Every compatible cartridge on this page is covered by a 1-year warranty and 1-year returns — if a cartridge fails in normal use within the year, it is replaced or refunded under that policy.
