C8600N
The networked C8600N brings the C8600's color laser output to shared office environments, where several people print to one machine across the day. Its cartridges — cyan 43487735, magenta 43487734 and yellow 43487733, plus black 43487736 in the fourth slot — match the rest of the C8600 and C8800 family exactly.
Sharing changes who notices what. On a networked printer nobody owns the supply levels, so a cartridge can slide from low to empty between one person's job and the next. The four independent cartridges soften that risk: an empty color strands only the jobs that need it, and the fix is a single swap rather than a whole new set.

The family's black cartridge is 43487736; it is not among the listings on this page, which stocks the three colors above.
Which cartridge should you buy?
Order the single color the printer flags — that is the entire strategy on a page that stocks singles only. Everyday documents printed in black-only mode leave the three colors untouched and stretch them considerably, so reserve color for the pages that earn it. Keep one spare of whichever color your office's work drains fastest, and remember that black for this family is 43487736, sourced by that number since it is not among this page's listings.
Chip, toner and everyday use
Because the machine serves many users, make the level check a habit: the printer tracks black, cyan, magenta and yellow separately, and a ten-second look at the levels on Friday prevents the Monday-morning empty cartridge. New cartridges are chipped and read correctly once seated in their color slot. If a cartridge fades early, a gentle side-to-side rock redistributes the toner inside and often restores even output for the rest of its life.
Frequently Asked Questions
What toner cartridges does the C8600N use?
Four individual cartridges: yellow 43487733, magenta 43487734, cyan 43487735 and black 43487736. Each color is replaced on its own when it runs out — this page stocks the three colors.
When one color runs out, must I change the rest too?
No. The C8600N tracks the four cartridges separately, so a single empty never forces you to throw away the other three. Swap the empty one and keep printing.
How can I keep color printing costs down on a shared machine?
Set everyday documents to black-only in the driver so the cyan, magenta and yellow cartridges are not spent on internal pages, and keep a spare of the busiest color on hand — on a shared printer, black usually runs out first because text dominates.
Is the black cartridge for this printer sold here?
Not on this page. The black is 43487736 from this same family; order it by that number, and avoid blacks from other OKI families, which use different cartridges entirely.
