Genuine & Compatible Kyocera TK-1164 Toner Cartridge Options
Multipacks for Higher Print Volumes
Rather than reordering one at a time, the 2-Pack TK-1164 Genuine (from $325.88) gets you more in a single order and qualifies for free delivery.
Only Need One Cartridge?
Not ready to stock up? A single Genuine TK-1164 Black cartridge (from $166.27) covers the immediate replacement.
Save with Compatible Cartridges
Compatible cartridges are a lower-cost alternative to genuine ink, with prices from $86.37 for a single TK-1164 Black cartridge or 2-pack TK-1164 for $146.83 (free delivery).
Expected page output and replacement cycles
Both genuine and compatible Kyocera TK-1164 Black cartridges deliver up to 7,200 pages based on the standard ISO/IEC 19752 testing methodology at 5% page coverage. High-volume document printing with heavy black text or graphics will naturally deplete toner faster than standard business letters.
| Cartridge Number | Type | Colour | Page Yield | Cost Per Page |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| TK-1164 | Standard | Black | 7,200 | $0.023 |
Cost Per Page = Total Cartridge Price ÷ Page Yield (at 5% coverage). Prices based on Genuine cartridges.

Pro tip for Kyocera TK-1164 users
When installing a fresh TK-1164 Black toner cartridge, firmly lock the side retention latch until it clicks into place. This ensures proper engagement with the internal toner feed hopper and prevents phantom "toner low" alerts on the display screen.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the drum unit included with the TK-1164 toner cartridge?
No. Kyocera Ecosys printers feature a long-life ceramic drum unit built into the printer itself, which operates separately from the consumable TK-1164 toner cartridge. You only need to replace the TK-1164 toner when alerted.
How long can unopened TK-1164 toner cartridges be stored safely?
Unopened genuine and compatible TK-1164 cartridges have a shelf life of up to 24 months when stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, making multi-packs safe for long-term stock.
Why does my printer display "Replace Toner" immediately after inserting a new TK-1164 cartridge?
This typically occurs if the toner locking lever was not pushed fully into the locked position during installation, preventing the developer drive mechanism from turning and feeding fresh toner.
Is TK-1164 the same as TK1164?
Yes. TK-1164 and TK1164 refer to the exact same Kyocera Black toner cartridge model; the hyphen is simply a formatting convention used interchangeably across part lists and retailers.
