Frequently Asked Questions

My B4250's output has gone pale — will a fresh cartridge fix it?

In most cases, yes. Pale, washed-out prints are the textbook sign of a toner cartridge at the end of its life, and the B4250's cartridge — the Okidata 42103001 — is rated at up to 2,500 pages, so a busy printer does get through them. If a new cartridge goes in and the output is still poor, the cause lies elsewhere in the printer; our support team can help you think it through Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST.

Can I squeeze more life out of a cartridge that's running low?

Usually a little. Take the cartridge out and rock it gently from side to side a few times to redistribute the toner inside, then reinstall it. That often restores even coverage for a while — long enough to finish the job and order a replacement without rushing.

How many pages should the new cartridge deliver?

Up to 2,500 pages at the standard 5% coverage. Everyday office documents track close to that; dense forms and graphics-heavy pages will finish it sooner.

What does this cartridge cost per page?

$25.48 for the single works out to about 1.02 cents per page. It is a fair price for a one-off replacement — the deep discounts in this family live in the multi-packs.

Is this the same cartridge the rest of the B-series uses?

Yes, the 42103001 is shared across the B4100, B4200, B4250, B4300, B4300n and B4350. If you have a mix of those printers, the same spare covers all of them.

What if the replacement cartridge doesn't solve the problem?

You are covered by a 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns either way — the terms are on our shipping & returns page. That safety net applies whether the cartridge itself is at fault or the printer turns out to be.
