Lexmark B220Z00 imaging unit components
The Lexmark B2236dw uses a two-piece consumable system where the toner cartridge attaches directly to a separate B220Z00 imaging unit. Experience Tip: The genuine B220Z00 imaging unit has a rated lifespan of 12,000 pages, meaning it typically outlasts three to ten toner cartridge replacements depending on whether you install standard or extra high-yield toner.
Choosing the right toner setup
If you print high volumes of daily text documents, choosing B226X00 extra high-yield cartridges offers the lowest running costs and longest intervals between replacements. For low-volume office setups, standard B226000 or B226H00 cartridges provide a lower upfront purchase price. Explore our full range of genuine Lexmark toner cartridges to stock your office. All purchases are backed by our returns policy. Free delivery applies on all orders over $99, dispatched quickly from our warehouses in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, and Adelaide.
Pro tip for Lexmark B2236dw cartridges
Pro Tip: Always verify whether your printer alert requires a new Black toner cartridge (B226000, B226H00, B226X00) or a replacement B220Z00 imaging unit, as installing fresh toner will not resolve an expired imaging unit notification.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I install a B226X00 extra high-yield cartridge if my printer originally came with a B226000 standard cartridge?
Yes, the B226X00 extra high-yield cartridge has the same physical dimensions as the B226000 and B226H00 cartridges and fits into the exact same slot in the Lexmark B2236dw printer. The extra high-yield unit simply contains a larger volume of Black toner powder inside.
How do I know when to replace the B220Z00 imaging unit versus the B226 series toner cartridge?
The Lexmark B2236dw tracks toner supply and imaging unit wear independently. The printer display will specifically indicate "Toner Low" when a B226000, B226H00, or B226X00 cartridge needs replacing, or "Imaging Unit Low" when the B220Z00 reaches the end of its 12,000-page rated lifecycle.
Why are B226X00 extra high-yield cartridges more cost-effective for small business printing?
The B226X00 cartridge delivers up to 6,000 pages compared to 1,200 pages from the standard B226000. This significantly reduces your overall cost per page while minimising physical cartridge replacements during high-volume print runs.
