It takes the 52116001 standard black print cartridge (11,000 pages) and the 52116002 high-yield cartridge (18,000 pages) — a two-cartridge family that keeps per-page costs down for heavy print environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which toner does the Oki B6500 use?

The B6500 uses 52116001 and 52116002, the two cartridge options in this family. Choose the capacity that fits your print volume.

My B6500 prints have faded text on the left side only. What is wrong?

One-sided fading often means toner is distributed unevenly in the cartridge. Remove it and rock it gently side to side. If fading persists, the LED array may need cleaning on that side.

Can the B6500 print envelopes?

Yes. Feed envelopes through the manual or multipurpose tray and select envelope as the media type. Envelope printing uses the same 52116001 and 52116002 toner as regular pages.
