WorkCentre 7225t
The WorkCentre 7225t rounds out the family as its top configuration: tandem paper trays under a 25-ppm tabloid color engine. It takes the same 006R01457 black toner as every sibling — roughly 22,000 pages per cartridge — with 006R01460 in cyan, 006R01458 in yellow and 006R01459 in magenta completing the set of four.
Everything about the 7225t is specified for minimal interruption: the fastest engine in the family, double the paper online, and a black cartridge rated in the tens of thousands of pages. The shops that buy it are buying unattended output — overnight report production, in-house manuals, event materials on a deadline. Supply management on such a machine is a background system: stock checked on a schedule, never in a crisis.

Which cartridge should you buy?
Maintain a standing spare set. The WorkCentre 7225T 4 Color Set under this model's name (or its Premium Quality counterpart, WorkCentre 7225T Premium) waits in the closet; when any slot empties mid-run, the replacement is steps away, and the reorder happens after the job ships, not during it.
For partial restocks, singles keep the accounting honest: black (006R01457) for the slot that works hardest, and 006R01460, 006R01459 or 006R01458 one at a time as colors fade. At 25 ppm the 7225t reaches the end of a cartridge's 22,000 pages sooner in calendar time than its slower siblings, so reorder points should be set by the level gauge. Compatible cartridges here carry a 1-year warranty and 1-year returns.
Chip, toner and everyday use
Unattended printing raises the cost of a bad swap, so be deliberate: install with the queue paused, confirm the chip registers and the level reads full, then release the work. Fading output near a cartridge's end can be stretched with a gentle rock to redistribute toner, but on this model the wiser move is swapping in the spare and letting the deadline pass without suspense. Keep spares sealed until the moment they are needed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the top configuration use special toner?
No. The 7225t runs on 006R01457 black plus 006R01460, 006R01459 and 006R01458 — the family standard shared with the slowest sibling.
Premium or standard four-color set?
Both are listed for this model with the same four cartridge numbers; Premium Quality is the alternative grade. Either installs in the same four slots.
How should I stock toner for unattended runs?
One complete set in reserve at all times. The black cartridge's roughly 22,000-page rating makes surprises rare, but a spare set is what turns a low-toner warning into a non-event.
Can I use a cartridge bought for the 7220t in the 7225t?
Yes. The cartridge numbers are identical across the family, so stock is interchangeable between the two machines.
