Okidata

This is the front door to every Okidata supply in the store: 911 listings, 101 cartridge codes and 335 model pages, organized the way Okidata organized its printers — by series first, then by model, then by the cartridge code that model takes. Black runs through most of this catalog: the mono families anchor it with cartridges like the 44574701, color enters through families like the 42127401 and its partners, and one whole corner — the OkiPage line — lives on the single cartridge 52109001.

Six series divide the catalog. The Oki B Series and MB Series are the monochrome lines, one single-function and one multifunction, and they share most of their cartridges between them. The Oki C Series and MC Series do the same on the color side, in single-function and multifunction form. OkiPage is the one-cartridge line described above, and the ES Series is the catalog's smallest shelf, serving a single model. Almost every ordering mistake in a catalog this shape comes from skipping a level — so the model page, linked in the directory below, is where every purchase here should start.

Which cartridge should you buy?

Find your printer in the directory and open its page: the B430, the C530 and the MC351 pages each list exactly the cartridges confirmed for that model, with the variants — the DN, N and W suffixes have their own pages — treated as the separate models they are. Then match the code on the cartridge you are removing. If the code appears on more than one series shelf, do not let that confuse you: several Okidata codes serve printers in two series at once, and the cartridge is the same. Series first, model second, code last — in that order, this catalog is hard to get wrong.

Chip, toner and everyday use

Across all six series the pattern repeats: each cartridge carries a chip the printer reads, colors are tracked and replaced individually, and drum units — where a line uses them — are separate parts on a longer cycle than the toner. Two habits serve every Okidata owner: keep the code of the cartridge you just installed written down for the next order, and keep one spare ahead of the printer rather than behind it. Every compatible cartridge in this catalog is covered by a one-year warranty and one-year returns.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is the Okidata catalog organized?

By series, then model, then cartridge code. The directory below links all 335 model pages; each model page lists its own cartridges. The series pages gather a whole line's shelf in one place for owners who already know their code.

Can one cartridge fit printers from two different series?

Yes, and it happens often here. Most MB Series codes are also B Series codes, and several color families are shared between the C Series and MC Series. The code is the identity of the cartridge; the series is the identity of the printer.

My printer's name has extra letters, like DN or W. Is it listed?

Very likely as its own page. Variants are listed separately in the directory — a B410DN sits next to, not inside, the B410 — because keeping them apart is what makes each model page's cartridge list trustworthy.

What if I only know the cartridge code?

Then you are most of the way there. Codes appear on the series shelves and in the popular list above, and each code's page gathers the printers that use it. Match the full eight-digit code, including its last digits — neighboring codes are different cartridges.
