C8800TN
The Okidata C8800TN is a workgroup color printer sharing the 8000-series toner platform: cyan 43487735, magenta 43487734 and yellow 43487733 are the cartridges stocked on this page, and the black slot takes 43487736. Matching this exact US number set keeps the printer on the right consumables — neighboring OKI families look similar and are not interchangeable.
The TN build pairs an extra paper tray with networking, a combination meant for a printer that sits at the center of a workgroup's day: more paper on board means longer runs between refills, and the tray says nothing about toner — the cartridge row is the same one the base C8800 uses, which keeps stocking simple across variants.

Which cartridge should you buy?
Buy the color that is empty; the three stocked cartridges are singles and each is changed independently. A workgroup that prints presentations daily will find one color — often cyan or magenta — consistently outrunning the others, and that is the spare to keep. Black, 43487736, belongs to the same set but is not stocked on this page, so keep its number with your reorder notes.
Chip, toner and everyday use
Sleep mode deserves a mention on a machine like this: leaving it enabled costs the toner nothing, because the sealed cartridges are unaffected while the fuser and electronics power down, and the printer wakes on the next job. The cartridges are chipped for individual level reporting; when one fades ahead of its warning, rocking it gently side to side redistributes the toner and evens the output back out. Store spares sealed and out of sunlight.
Frequently Asked Questions
What toner does the C8800TN use?
Yellow 43487733, magenta 43487734, cyan 43487735 and black 43487736 — the same cartridges as the base C8800 and its other variants. This page stocks the three colors.
What does the TN configuration add?
The T adds an extra paper tray and the N adds networking to the base machine — more paper capacity and shared access. Toner stays the same four cartridges across all C8800 variants.
Can I leave the printer in sleep mode without hurting the toner?
Yes. Sleep mode powers down the fuser and electronics only; the sealed cartridges are unaffected, and the printer wakes for the next job with no penalty to toner life. Leaving sleep enabled is pure savings.
Why is there no black cartridge on this page?
Only the three color cartridges are stocked here. The family's black is 43487736 — order it by that number rather than substituting another OKI black.
