Expected output and page yields
Standard 147A (W1470A), high-yield 147X (W1470X), and extra high-yield 147Y (W1470Y) black cartridges are measured under ISO/IEC 19752 testing standards for monochrome laser toner. Actual page output varies based on text density, continuous batch sizes, and coverage per page during heavy operational runs.
| Cartridge Number | Type | Colour | Page Yield | Cost Per Page |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 147A | High Yield | Black | 10,500 | $0.037 |
| 147Y | High Yield | Black | 42,000 | $0.020 |
| 147X | Extra High Yield | Black | 25,200 | $0.025 |
Cost Per Page = Total Cartridge Price ÷ Page Yield (at 5% coverage). Prices based on Genuine cartridges.

Enterprise Toner Pro Tip
Verify your exact printer firmware and tray configuration when purchasing 147Y (W1470Y) extra high-yield cartridges; while they feature the same physical slot footprint as 147A (W1470A) standard units, their massive 42,000-page ink payload is specifically intended for heavy enterprise duty cycles.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I install a 147Y extra high-yield cartridge in place of a standard 147A cartridge?
Yes, the 147Y (W1470Y) cartridge shares the same internal installation dimensions as the standard 147A (W1470A) and high-yield 147X (W1470X) toner cartridges. It simply contains a higher density of toner to yield up to 42,000 pages, making it fully compatible without needing physical modifications.
How does the ISO/IEC 19752 standard affect real-world toner consumption on the M612dn?
ISO/IEC 19752 measures mono laser yield based on standard 5% page coverage. If your office prints dense legal documents, complex charts, or heavy black graphics, actual coverage will exceed 5%, resulting in fewer total pages printed before the toner needs replacement.
Are high-yield 147X and 147Y cartridges more cost-effective for enterprise printing?
High-yield options significantly lower the ongoing cost per page compared to standard 147A (W1470A) cartridges. The extra high-yield 147Y (W1470Y) delivers roughly four times the output of a standard unit, reducing supply management tasks and delivery cycles across busy office teams.
