Kyocera PA4500cx Toner Cartridges
Shop toner cartridges for the Kyocera ECOSYS PA4500cx, which uses the Kyocera TK-5394 toner series. Designed for high-demand office environments, this fast A4 colour laser printer uses separate black, cyan, magenta, and yellow cartridges to produce crisp text and vibrant colour graphics. Offices handling heavy daily document volumes may use black toner faster than the colour cartridges, so keeping spare black toner or a complete toner set available can help minimise workflow interruptions. Ink Depot has supplied consumables for this printer model since Jan 2024 and is rated 4.8 by customers on Google.
Expected page output and replacement cycles
Operating in a busy workplace means balancing high black text output with recurring document highlights. The black toner is rated for 18,000 pages in accordance with ISO/IEC 19798, while the individual cyan, magenta, and yellow toners deliver 13,000 pages each, ensuring toner depletion remains predictable across mixed document runs.

Pro Tip
When replacing individual toner cartridges, always gently rock the new unit horizontally a few times before insertion to evenly distribute the toner powder and ensure sharp, streak-free output from the very first page.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the ISO/IEC 19798 standard affect my expected cartridge lifespan?
The ISO/IEC 19798 standard measures toner yield using a standard 5 percent page coverage test on A4 paper. If your office prints dense graphics, heavy presentations, or full-page coverage documents, your actual page output per cartridge will decrease accordingly.
Is it more cost-effective to buy individual colour toners or complete multi-packs?
Purchasing the complete 4-pack bundle significantly reduces the overall cost per page compared to buying individual colour units separately, making it the smartest choice for high-volume offices managing predictable print overheads.
Why does the black toner last longer than the individual cyan, magenta, and yellow units?
The black toner is rated for 18,000 pages because business environments predominantly print text-heavy documents, whereas the 13,000-page colour toners are proportioned for occasional charts, logos, and highlights.
