Frequently Asked Questions

Why does magenta matter so much for business documents?

Magenta is doing more work than it gets credit for: reds, purples, warm grays and most logo colors are built largely from it. When the 42127402 starts running low, brand colors drift before plain text documents show any problem, which is why color-sensitive offices watch this cartridge closely.

What is the page rating on the 42127402?

It is the high yield member of its family, rated at up to 5,000 pages under standard coverage assumptions. At its $41.36 price that is about 0.83 cents per page — the joint-lowest per-page figure in the 4212740x color family, shared with the cyan.

Which printers use this magenta cartridge?

The 42127402 fits the Oki C5100n, C5150n, C5200n, C5250, C5300n, C5400, C5400dn, C5400dtn, C5400n, C5400tn and C5450. Its partners in the same printers are the yellow 42127401 and the cyan 42127403, each sold separately so you only replace the color that is empty.

My reds look orange — is that a magenta problem?

Very often, yes. Weak magenta pushes red toward orange and makes purples look blue. Before blaming the printer, check the magenta level; a fresh 42127402 usually restores the balance immediately.

Is this a genuine Okidata cartridge?

No, and we label it clearly: this is a Clever Supplies compatible cartridge built to replace the Okidata 42127402, not an OEM unit in Okidata packaging. What you get instead is the same 5,000-page rating at a compatible price, covered by our own 1-year warranty.

How are returns handled if it does not work out?

You have a full year of free returns and a 1-year warranty behind the cartridge. The process is spelled out on our shipping and returns page, and if you would rather ask a person first, support is on hand Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST.
