Frequently Asked Questions

Our SCX-4500 copies as much as it prints - do copies draw on this cartridge too?

Yes. A copy is a printed page as far as toner is concerned: the SCX-4500 scans the original, then prints it using the ML-D1630A cartridge, so copying spends toner at the same rate as printing the same page from a computer. Scanning alone is the exception - sending a scan to a file lays down no toner at all. Households that copy school sheets and documents regularly should expect the cartridge's 2,000-page rating to be shared between the two jobs.

What does 2,000 pages mean across print and copy work combined?

The rating is counted in printed pages, whatever produced them. A week of fifty prints and fifty copies is a hundred pages against the cartridge. At that mixed pace the cartridge lasts around twenty weeks; lighter use stretches it further. Text pages sit near the test coverage the rating assumes, while copies of dense or shaded originals use more per page.

What does a page cost from this cartridge?

The cartridge is $52.61, so each rated page - print or copy - carries roughly 2.63 cents of toner. For an SCX-4500 that works hard, the five-cartridge pack in this family lowers the same page to about 1.89 cents; for occasional use, the single keeps things simple.

Which machines take this cartridge?

The SCX-4500 uses the Samsung ML-D1630A, the same cartridge as the ML-1630 and ML-1630W printers. This listing is the SCX-4500's own; the shared code means one cartridge type covers the multifunction and its printer siblings alike.

Will a fresh cartridge fix copies that have gone pale?

If the fading follows the cartridge's age - prints and copies both greying together - then yes, a fresh ML-D1630A is the fix, since toner and imaging surface are one unit and both are renewed in the swap. If only copies are pale while computer prints stay strong, the cause sits on the scanning side instead, and a cartridge will not cure it.

How am I covered on this purchase?

The cartridge carries a one-year warranty, and returns are free for a full year if it arrives faulty or fails early. Orders are dispatched from whichever of our Illinois, Pennsylvania, Georgia or California warehouses is closest, and support is available Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST.

About This Cartridge for the Samsung SCX-4500

A single Samsung ML-D1630A cartridge on the SCX-4500's listing: $52.61, rated at 2,000 printed pages, about 2.63 cents per page - with copying drawing on exactly the same supply as printing.

Because the unit combines toner and imaging surface, one change refreshes both jobs at once. The cartridge is shared with the ML-1630 and ML-1630W, and multi-packs for busier SCX-4500 workloads sit in the Samsung range.

In brief: one cartridge for print and copy alike, a one-year warranty, and free returns across the same year.
