HP Color LaserJet CP3525 CP3525dn CP3525n Toner Cartridges
Your HP Color LaserJet CP3525, CP3525dn, and CP3525n printers use the HP 504A and 504X toner cartridge series. Designed for high-volume office workgroups, these heavy-duty laser printers handle fast double-sided document production and vibrant colour graphics. Ink Depot has been supplying reliable consumables for this printer range since Aug 2026. High-volume environments quickly deplete standard 504A (CE250A) black cartridges during daily administration, making high-yield 504X (CE250X) cartridges the preferred choice to reduce downtime. Our 4.8 Google rating reflects a long-standing track record of premium cartridge performance.
Expected page output and replacement cycles
Standard HP 504A colour cartridges and 504X high-yield black toners are rated using ISO/IEC 19798 testing standards for colour laser printers. Page yields assume 5% coverage on standard A4 paper, though heavy graphic output or dense text documents will increase overall toner consumption.
Choosing between genuine and compatible options
Commercial printing costs add up quickly. Switching to compatible 504A and 504X cartridges provides significant savings without compromising print clarity or office workflow. Under Australian Consumer Law, using compatible cartridges does not void your printer warranty. Read our comprehensive genuine vs compatible cartridge guide to evaluate options for your business.
Best way to stock these toner cartridges
If your office prints mostly text documents, choosing high-yield 504X (CE250X) black toner provides double the page capacity of standard 504A (CE250A) cartridges, lowering your long-term printing costs. If your team produces client proposals with colour graphics, bundle packs ensure balanced supply across cyan, magenta, and yellow. Compatible options include a full money-back guarantee for complete peace of mind. Free delivery applies on all orders over $99.

Managing high-volume colour inventory
When replacing 504A colour toners in shared workgroup environments, order cyan, magenta, and yellow together. Colour depletion across shared office printers is generally balanced, so replacing all three simultaneously prevents repetitive printer maintenance downtime.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do the HP Color LaserJet CP3525, CP3525dn, and CP3525n use the same toner cartridges?
Yes. All models in the CP3525 range use the exact same HP 504A standard and 504X high-yield toner series, regardless of whether your printer has built-in networking (n) or automatic duplexing (dn) capabilities.
Can I install a high-yield 504X (CE250X) black toner alongside standard 504A colour cartridges?
Yes, you can freely mix standard 504A (CE251A, CE252A, CE253A) colour toners with the 504X (CE250X) high-yield black toner. The 504X cartridge shares the exact physical slot dimensions as the standard 504A (CE250A) black cartridge while holding more toner inside.
Why does black toner deplete much faster than colour toners in an office environment?
Most business printing consists of text documents, emails, and internal reports that draw exclusively on black toner. Colour cartridges are only accessed when printing logos, graphics, or presentation slides, leading to uneven replacement intervals across the system.
Are 504X high-yield options available for cyan, magenta, and yellow?
No, HP only manufactured the 504X high-yield variant in black (CE250X). All colour cartridges for the CP3525 series are produced exclusively in the standard 504A yield rating (7,000 pages per colour).
