Frequently Asked Questions

How does a 5-pack keep a networked MB471DNW from stopping everyone's work?

A networked printer serves the whole office, so an empty cartridge is never one person's problem — it halts print jobs from every desk. This pack keeps five 44574701 cartridges on site, each rated at up to 4,000 pages, so when the installed one runs out the replacement is already in the building. The swap takes a couple of minutes, the queue clears, and nobody waits on a delivery to get a document printed.

What is the cost picture across the whole pack?

The pack costs $68.28, which divides to about $13.66 per cartridge and, at 4,000 pages per cartridge, roughly 0.34 cents per page. Five single cartridges at $28.45 each would total $142.25, so stocking the pack saves $73.97. Spread over the pack's 20,000 pages, that saving is what makes the per-page figure as low as it is.

When should we reorder — after the last cartridge goes in, or sooner?

Sooner is safer on a shared network machine. A practical trigger is installing the fourth cartridge: one spare remains on the shelf, and at typical office volumes that spare covers the days a new pack takes to arrive. Orders ship from our warehouses in IL, PA, GA and CA, so delivery is usually quick, but the buffer costs nothing and removes the risk entirely.

How do we spot that the installed cartridge is running out?

Pages come out lighter, with gray text and uneven density; long documents may fade progressively from start to finish. Because an MB471DNW takes jobs from many users, the fading is often reported by whoever prints the most — encourage the team to flag it early. Rocking the cartridge gently can redistribute toner for a short reprieve, but a spare from the pack is the proper fix.

Are these original Oki cartridges?

No — they are compatible 44574701 cartridges made for the MB471DNW, not Oki-branded stock. They come with a 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns, so a cartridge that underperforms can be sent back without the usual short return window pressure. Support is available Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST if you need help with an order or a cartridge.

Do the cartridges need any special handling when they arrive?

Just keep them in their sealed packaging, stored flat in a dry cupboard away from direct sun and radiators. Toner cartridges keep well in storage, so there is no rush to use the pack quickly. When one is needed, open it at the machine, follow the usual install steps, and put the old cartridge aside for recycling.
