Frequently Asked Questions
How many pages will one 113R00667 cartridge realistically print in my PE16?
The 113R00667 is rated at about 3,500 pages at the standard 5% page coverage — roughly a solid block of text on each sheet. A WorkCentre Pro PE16 rarely prints text-only pages, though: it copies, it receives faxes, and it prints, and every one of those pages draws on the same 3,500. An office that mostly faxes and copies short documents will land close to the rating; one printing full-page forms and dense reports will land below it. Think of 3,500 as the honest ceiling for light-coverage work, not a promise for heavy pages.
Why do my copies look faded while prints from the computer still look fine?
That split is a classic low-toner symptom on the PE16. Copying scans a page and lays down toner based on what the scanner sees, so a cartridge running low shows up first as washed-out, uneven copies. Computer prints often look acceptable a little longer because the data is crisp black to begin with. When copies fade but prints hold, the 113R00667 is near the end of its toner — a gentle rock of the cartridge side to side can redistribute what's left for a short stretch, but it's a bridge to a replacement, not a fix.
What does each printed page cost with this cartridge?
The arithmetic is simple: $44.61 for roughly 3,500 pages works out to about 1.27 cents per page. That's the figure that matters for a machine like the PE16, which usually survives in a small office precisely because it is cheap to feed. One cartridge, no subscription, no per-page contract — you pay once and print until it runs dry.
Do incoming faxes and copies really use the same toner budget as printing?
Yes — the printer cannot tell the difference. A received fax, a photocopy, and a document sent from your computer all come off the same drum and the same toner supply inside the 113R00667. Junk faxes and unnecessary test copies genuinely shorten cartridge life on this machine, which is why PE16 owners who screen faxes before printing tend to stretch each cartridge noticeably further.
How should I store this cartridge if the PE16 is a backup machine?
Keep it sealed in its bag, lying flat, in a cool, dry spot away from direct sunlight and heat vents. Stored that way, a spare 113R00667 waits patiently until the day the backup machine gets called into service. Don't install it "just to have it ready" months ahead — an unopened cartridge ages far better on the shelf than one sitting open in a machine that prints twice a month.
What protection do I get if the cartridge misbehaves?
Every 113R00667 we sell is covered by a 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns, so a cartridge that arrives leaking, streaking, or short on life is our problem, not yours — full details are on our shipping and returns page. Orders ship from our warehouses in IL, PA, GA, and CA, and our support team answers Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST if you want a human to look at your print samples before you reorder.
About This Xerox 113R00667 Black Toner Cartridge
The WorkCentre Pro PE16 belongs to a generation of machines that small offices refuse to retire: it faxes, copies, scans, and prints from one compact footprint, and it keeps doing so as long as someone feeds it toner. This compatible 113R00667 black cartridge is how that feeding stays affordable — roughly 3,500 pages at about 1.27 cents a page, from a cartridge built for exactly this machine. It is a single cartridge sold on its own: order one when the current cartridge fades, or keep one sealed on the shelf so the day the PE16 is needed is never the day it stands empty. As part of our Xerox compatible range for the WorkCentre Pro PE16, it carries the same 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns as the rest of the line — old machine, current support.
