Frequently Asked Questions
Do the HP LaserJet Enterprise MFP M527dn and M527f use the same toner cartridges?
Yes, both the M527dn and M527f models use the exact same HP 87A (CF287A) standard and 87X (CF287X) high-yield Black toner cartridges.
Can I install a high-yield 87X (CF287X) toner cartridge if my printer currently uses a standard 87A (CF287A)?
Yes, the 87X cartridge has the exact same physical outer dimensions and fits into the same internal toner tray inside the printer; it simply holds twice as much toner internally.
How many pages can I print before replacing an 87X (CF287X) Black toner cartridge?
An 87X cartridge yields approximately 18,000 pages at standard 5% coverage under ISO/IEC 19752 testing, compared to 9,000 pages for the standard 87A cartridge.
Will using high-yield 87X toner multi-packs reduce cost per page in high-volume enterprise printing?
Multi-packs lower the individual unit cost and reduce physical ordering frequency, making them the most cost-effective choice for heavy document workloads on LaserJet M527 series printers.
