Expected page output and replacement cycles
Page yield ratings follow the ISO/IEC 19798 standard for colour laser toner cartridges. High-volume office printing across black and colour toners keeps per-page costs low while maintaining consistent print density across long document runs.

Choosing compatible toner cartridges
Choosing compatible cartridges offers substantial savings for high-duty print runs without compromising output quality. Under Australian Consumer Law, using compatible cartridges does not void your printer warranty. Read our guide comparing genuine and compatible cartridges to understand how compatible laser toners maintain sharp text and accurate colour output.
Best strategy for stocking toner
For high-volume text document printing, black toner 642A (CB400A) will deplete faster than colour units, so keeping an extra black unit on hand prevents unexpected downtime. If you produce marketing collaterals or reports with charts, cyan 642A (CB401A), yellow 642A (CB402A), and magenta 642A (CB403A) cartridges generally exhaust at similar rates. All compatible items are covered by our money-back guarantee, detailed in our returns policy. We dispatch directly from distribution centers in Perth, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, and Adelaide.

Pro Tip
Store unopened 642A toner cartridges horizontally in a cool, dark cabinet. Storing laser toners upright can cause internal toner powder to settle unevenly at one end, which can lead to light band streaks across your initial pages after installation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I replace individual 642A colour toners as they run out, or do I need to change them together?
You can replace each 642A toner cartridge individually as it reaches empty. The printer continuously tracks toner levels for each colour independently, so replacing only the depleted unit will not interrupt the remaining cartridges.
Why do colour 642A toners show reduced levels even when printing predominantly black documents?
The HP Color LaserJet CP4005 uses small amounts of colour toner during routine calibration and printhead maintenance cycles to preserve clean colour registration. This background process ensures sharp colour output whenever a graphic print job is sent.
What page yield can I expect from 642A toner cartridges under normal office conditions?
Each 642A toner cartridge is rated for approximately 7,500 pages based on standard 5% coverage per page. If your documents contain heavy graphic blocks, full-page colour fills, or dense bold fonts, coverage per page will be higher and total page yield will decrease proportionally.
