Canon CART055 & Canon CART055H Toner Cartridges

Expected page output and replacement cycles

Page yields for Canon CART055 and CART055H toner cartridges are measured under the ISO/IEC 19798 standard for colour laser printing at 5% page coverage. High-yield CART055H cartridges deliver up to 7,600 black and 5,900 colour pages, reducing overall toner cost per page.

Choosing between genuine and compatible cartridges

Under Australian Consumer Law, using compatible cartridges does not void your printer warranty. Compatible CART055H toner cartridges deliver substantially lower costs per page while maintaining crisp text and clear graphics.

Best way to stock these cartridges

Pro Tip

Toner cartridges use dry powder rather than liquid ink, so they will not dry out or clog if your printer sits idle between print runs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do CART055 and CART055H cartridges differ in physical size?

No. Both CART055 standard and CART055H high-yield cartridges share identical physical dimensions and fit into the exact same slot in your printer. The CART055H high-yield version simply holds a larger capacity of toner powder inside the shell.

When replacing colour toners, do I need to replace cyan, magenta, and yellow at the same time?

No. Colour laser printers track each toner level individually. You only need to replace the specific colour cartridge that indicates low toner, keeping the remaining active cartridges in service until empty.

Does the drum unit need to be replaced separately when changing a CART055 toner cartridge?

The Canon CART055 series uses an all-in-one cartridge structure where the photosensitive drum and toner container are integrated into a single unit. Replacing the toner cartridge automatically replaces the drum unit as well.

Is CART055H the same as CART 055H?

Yes. CART055H and CART 055H refer to the exact same high-yield Canon toner cartridge series; the space is simply a common search formatting variation.
