ES1624N MFP

The Okidata ES1624N MFP is a color LED multifunction — print, copy, scan and fax in one machine aimed at small offices. It works on the OKI Type C6 toner family, each cartridge rated at about 5,000 pages. Stocked on this page are the three colors: 42127401 yellow, 42127402 magenta and 42127403 cyan. The family's black cartridge, 42127404, completes the 42127401–42127404 set but is not stocked on this page, so check the number on the cartridge you remove before ordering.

One cartridge family keeping an entire multifunction supplied is the ES1624N MFP's quiet advantage: the same four slots feed printing and copying alike, so there is no second consumable system to learn or stock. In a small office the machine tends to sit at the center of everything — the quick copy, the scanned contract, the fax that still arrives — and its color cartridges drain in proportion to all of it, not just to printing.

Which cartridge should you buy?

Buy the color the machine names. Each Type C6 cartridge is replaced individually, and the three colors on this page are the high-yield members of the family, rated around 5,000 pages apiece — the right tier for a shared multifunction. Some of the listings below carry the C5100n name rather than this model's; they are the same 4212740x cartridges, sold under the sibling machine that shares them, and they fit this MFP exactly the same. If black is what ran out, note again that 42127404 is not part of this page's stock — order it by that number wherever you buy it.

Chip, toner and everyday use

Compatible Type C6 cartridges are chipped so the ES1624N MFP recognizes them and reports levels normally across both printing and copying. Watch consumption through the printer's web interface if the machine is shared — it is easier than walking over to read the panel. Yield figures are quoted at roughly five percent coverage; copies of dense originals use toner faster than light office pages. Keep one spare of the color your office burns through fastest, store cartridges sealed and level, and rock a long-shelved cartridge gently before installation to loosen the toner.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which toner set does the ES1624N MFP use?

The Type C6 family: yellow 42127401, magenta 42127402, cyan 42127403 and black 42127404, each rated at about 5,000 pages. This page stocks the three colors; the black cartridge is not listed here.

Why do some cartridges on this page say C5100n?

Because the C5100n drinks from the same Type C6 family. Those listings are the identical 42127401–42127403 cartridges under the sibling model's name, and they install in the ES1624N MFP the same way. The number on the cartridge is what matters, not the model name on the box.

Does copying use the same cartridges as printing?

Yes. The copier and the printer share one engine and one set of toner slots, so a low cartridge affects both. Scanning and faxing, by contrast, put no toner on paper and consume none.

How should a small office manage toner for a shared MFP?

Check levels through the web interface weekly, keep one spare black — office documents deplete black fastest — and set department defaults to grayscale for internal work so the color set is spent on pages that actually need color.
