A single Genuine C746H1KG Black cartridge (from $347.15) lets you buy one at a time rather than a pack.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Lexmark C746A1 and C746H1 toner cartridges?
C746A1 is the standard-yield cartridge series yielding approximately 6,000 pages, whereas C746H1 is the high-yield cartridge series yielding up to 12,000 pages. Both use the exact same physical cartridge slot and housing design inside the printer.
How does print coverage affect the 12,000-page yield on C746H1 cartridges?
The 12,000-page rating is based on standard 5% coverage (typical business correspondence). Printing high-density charts, heavy text tables, or barcodes consumes more toner per page and reduces overall yield proportionally.
Can I run a high-yield C746H1 Black cartridge alongside standard colour cartridges?
Yes, Lexmark enterprise printers manage each toner slot independently. You can install a high-capacity C746H1 Black cartridge for heavy document printing while using standard yield cartridges in the colour slots.
Is C746H1KG the same cartridge as C746H1?
Yes, C746H1KG is the specific manufacturer part number for the high-yield Black toner cartridge in the C746H1 series; the "KG" suffix designates the Black toner colour for Lexmark laser systems.
