M2035dn
The ECOSYS M2035dn brings two features small offices usually have to pay extra for — automatic duplex printing and built-in networking — into the compact monochrome MFP class. The dn suffix is the promise: two-sided output and shared access, standard on every unit. Its toner is the TK-1142 (TK1142) black cartridge, rated at 7,200 pages per ISO/IEC 19752; Kyocera's US documentation names this model directly under the TK-1147 family, the kit sold stateside as the TK-1142 (TK-1140 in Europe).
Built for shared use, the M2035dn sits on the office network where a whole team reaches it, and the supply routine scales with that role. One cartridge number serves the printer for its whole working life, changes are infrequent at 7,200 pages a time, and duplexing trims paper costs alongside the toner savings. It is a natural fit wherever several people print through one dependable desktop unit.
Toner Cartridges for M2035dn
| Cartridge | Color | Page Yield |
|---|---|---|
| TK-1142 (TK1142) — 2 pack | Black | 7,200 pages per cartridge |
| TK-1142 (TK1142) — 4 pack | Black | 7,200 pages per cartridge |
Which cartridge should you buy?
There is one cartridge for this machine and two ways to stock it. The 2 pack holds about 14,400 pages of coverage — the sensible standing reserve for a shared printer, since the replacement is already in the building when the first cartridge empties. The 4 pack, roughly 28,800 pages across four cartridges, lowers the cost per page and suits offices that print in volume or manage supplies centrally for several machines in this family.
Chip, toner and everyday use
A chip on each TK-1142 lets the M2035dn verify the cartridge and estimate remaining toner, so install with the power on and let recognition complete before sending a queue of jobs. Remember the rated yield assumes about 5% coverage: duplexed long documents still count their printed sides, and dense pages draw more toner than sparse ones. Near end of life, gently rocking the cartridge side to side redistributes toner for a final stretch of clean output. Keep the reserve pack sealed, flat and away from heat.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which toner does the ECOSYS M2035dn use?
The TK-1142 black cartridge in North America — the TK-1147 kit in Kyocera's documentation, TK-1140 in Europe — rated at approximately 7,200 pages.
What is the difference between the M2035dn and M2535dn?
Both are 35-ppm ECOSYS monochrome MFPs sharing the TK-1142 cartridge. The M2535dn adds extra standard features aimed at busier workgroups; the toner shelf does not change.
Is the M2035dn toner shared with the FS-series MFPs?
Yes. The FS-1035 MFP, FS-1035MFP and FS-1135 MFP all run the same TK-1142, so one stock covers mixed fleets.
How many pages does a 2 pack cover?
Two cartridges at a rated 7,200 pages each — about 14,400 pages at roughly 5% coverage, with real totals depending on what you print.
