Expected Page Output and Replacement Cycles
Lexmark calculates standard page yields under ISO/IEC 19752 testing standards for monochrome laser cartridges. The B236000 delivers up to 3,000 pages, while the high-yield B246H00 reaches 6,000 pages. Choosing high-yield cartridges minimizes cartridge swaps and provides a lower cost per page for busy office workflows.
| Cartridge Number | Type | Colour | Page Yield | Cost Per Page |

Cost Per Page = Total Cartridge Price ÷ Page Yield (at 5% coverage). Prices based on Genuine cartridges.
Lexmark 56F0Z0E Imaging Unit Requirements
Unlike integrated print cartridges, the Lexmark B2442dw keeps the toner cartridge and imaging drum separate. Experience Tip: The genuine 56F0Z0E imaging unit carries an estimated rating of 60,000 pages, outlasting up to ten high-yield B246H00 toner cartridges before requiring replacement.
Selecting the Right Toner Setup and Delivery Options
If you handle routine paperwork, standard B236000 cartridges cover basic operational requirements. For higher daily document output, choosing the B246H00 high-yield toner or multipacks significantly improves printing economy. All purchases are backed by our returns policy. Free delivery applies on all orders over $99, with fast dispatch from our warehouse locations across Perth, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, and Adelaide.

Pro Tip
Always verify whether your printer needs fresh toner or an imaging unit before ordering; replacing a B246H00 toner cartridge will not fix page drum wear if the 56F0Z0E imaging unit has reached its 60,000-page limit.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know when to replace the 56F0Z0E imaging unit versus the B246H00 toner cartridge?
The B246H00 toner cartridge supplies the black powder for printing and needs replacing every 6,000 pages, while the 56F0Z0E imaging unit transfers the image onto paper and lasts up to 60,000 pages. The printer will display distinct alerts when either specific component requires replacement.
Will the high-yield Lexmark B246H00 fit in the B2442dw printer if I previously used a B236000?
Yes, the B246H00 high-yield toner shares the exact physical footprint of the standard B236000 cartridge. It simply contains more toner powder, doubling print output without requiring extra space or installation adjustments.
How should unopened Lexmark B236000 or B246H00 toner cartridges be stored to maintain performance?
Store unopened toner cartridges horizontally in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Unlike liquid ink, dry toner powder within sealed Lexmark cartridges maintains its usability for up to two years when kept in stable ambient temperatures.
