Enterprise purchasing tip
Colour toner cartridges in multi-function enterprise lasers do not deplete evenly; cyan and magenta often run out faster during heavy corporate branding prints. Purchasing 657X high-yield colour multipacks upfront prevents individual colour outages from halting multi-page department print jobs mid-run.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do the HP Color LaserJet Enterprise MFP M681dh and M681f use the exact same toner cartridges?
Yes, both the M681dh and M681f models belong to the same enterprise printer family and use identical HP 655A standard and 657X high-yield toner cartridges.
Can I mix standard 655A cartridges with high-yield 657X cartridges in the same printer?
Yes, you can mix 655A standard yield and 657X high yield cartridges across different colour slots. For instance, running a high-capacity 657X (CF470X) black toner alongside standard 655A colour toners is a common setup for offices printing mostly black text.
Why do 657X colour cartridges have a lower page rating than 657X black cartridges?
Black toners (CF470X) yield up to 28,000 pages, whereas 657X colour toners yield up to 23,000 pages. ISO testing assumes higher black ink coverage for standard corporate documents, requiring extra physical toner capacity in the black cartridge body.
Do HP 655A and 657X toner cartridges include the imaging drum?
No, the HP M681 series uses an all-in-one cartridge architecture where each toner cartridge houses its own developing and cleaning mechanisms, ensuring clean image transfer every time a toner is replaced.
