Lexmark CS622de Toner Cartridges
Your Lexmark CS622de uses the Lexmark 78C6U and 78C6X toner cartridge series along with 78C0W00 waste toner bottles and 78C0ZK0 imaging units. High-volume document workflows deplete 78C6UKE black toner fastest, while 78C6U ultra high yield colour cartridges minimise maintenance downtime. Our 4.8 Google rating reflects a long-standing track record of premium cartridge performance.

Imaging units and waste toner components
The Lexmark CS622de relies on separate long-life components alongside standard toner cartridges. The 78C0W00 waste toner bottle collects excess toner up to 25,000 pages, while the 78C0ZK0 black and 78C0ZV0 colour imaging units maintain image transfer across 125,000 pages.
Experience Tip: The 78C0ZK0 imaging unit is rated for 125,000 pages and operates independently from toner replacement cycles.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Lexmark 78C6X and 78C6U toner cartridges?
The 78C6X series is Extra High Yield, offering up to 8,500 black and 5,000 colour pages, whereas the 78C6U series is Ultra High Yield, delivering up to 10,500 black and 7,000 colour pages for higher duty cycles.
How often do Lexmark CS622de imaging units need replacing compared to toners?
Lexmark imaging units (78C0ZK0 and 78C0ZV0) have a rated duty cycle of 125,000 pages, meaning they typically outlast more than ten full ultra-high-yield toner replacements before needing renewal.
Why do colour toners deplete even if I mostly print black and white documents?
During printer calibration, startup cycles, and subtle composite grey text printing, minor amounts of cyan, magenta, and yellow toner are used to maintain colour balance and image quality.
