CLX-2160

The CLX-2160 was Samsung's color laser multifunction printer entry in the mid-2000s CLP/CLX generation. Like its CLX-2160 siblings, it was designed around low running costs for everyday color work. It found its niche with home offices and very small businesses taking their first step into color laser printing.

The CLP-K300A cartridge set powers it: CLP-K300A lays down the black, while CLP-C300A covers magenta. Clever Supplies carries both compatible and genuine OEM CLP-K300A cartridges for it, with fast shipping on every order.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is high-yield CLP-K300A compatible with the CLX-2160?

The CLX-2160 reads the chip on any CLP-K300A cartridge the same way, regardless of how much toner is inside. Match the yield to your volume: occasional printing favors standard, steady printing favors high-yield. Clever Supplies carries CLP-K300A in the yields Samsung offers, so you can pick whichever suits your CLX-2160.

Help me decide: why does the CLX-2160 show a toner error with a brand-new cartridge?

Toner-level tracking with a compatible CLP-K300A depends on the chip; some report accurately, others show full until empty. Do not force the cartridge — the CLX-2160's chip reader aligns only when the CLP-K300A slides in smoothly. Most chip issues resolve with reseating or a replacement from a good supplier.

Help me decide: can a CLP-K300A cartridge cause paper jams in the CLX-2160?

After clearing a jam, close all doors firmly — the CLX-2160 will not resume until every sensor is satisfied. If jams cluster in one spot, that section's rollers or guides on the CLX-2160 need attention. Preventive habits beat reactive clearing every time with the CLX-2160.
