Lexmark CS820de Toner Cartridges
Shop toner cartridges for your Lexmark CS820de, which uses the Lexmark 72K60 and 72K6X toner cartridge series along with 72K0DK0 imaging units and 72K0W00 waste toner bottles. Moving from standard 8,000-page 72K60 cartridges to extra-high-yield 72K6XK0 black cartridges reduces operational costs during heavy print runs. Our 4.8 Google rating reflects a long-standing track record of premium cartridge performance.

Imaging Units and Maintenance Components
The Lexmark CS820de uses separate imaging units (72K0DK0, 72K0DC0, 72K0DM0) and a waste toner bottle (72K0W00) to keep print lines clean. Experience Tip: The 72K0W00 waste toner bottle is rated for up to 115,000 pages before requiring replacement.
Choosing the right cartridge setup
If you print mainly text documents, choosing the 72K6XK0 extra-high-yield black toner cartridge delivers maximum page output and lowers cost per page. If you produce high-volume colour reports or graphics, opting for 72K6XC0, 72K6XM0, and 72K6XY0 high-yield colour cartridges minimises supply changes.

Pro Tip
When ordering full replacement sets for high-duty Lexmark printers, align your order schedules between black and colour cartridges based on page output: 72K6XK0 black cartridges yield 33,000 pages, while 72K6X colour cartridges yield 22,000 pages, meaning colour sets will deplete on a different cycle.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do standard 72K60 toner cartridges differ from extra-high-yield 72K6X cartridges?
Both series fit identically in the Lexmark CS820de. Standard 72K60 cartridges yield up to 8,000 pages in black or yellow, while 72K6X extra-high-yield cartridges supply up to 33,000 black pages (72K6XK0) and 22,000 colour pages (72K6XC0, 72K6XM0, 72K6XY0), dramatically lowering cost per page.
Are Lexmark CS820de imaging units replaced at the same time as toner cartridges?
No. Imaging units operate on a separate wear cycle from toner cartridges and only require replacement when indicated by the printer status screen, usually outlasting multiple toner cartridge replacements.
What ISO standard determines the page yield rating for Lexmark CS820de toner?
Page yields for the 72K60 and 72K6X series are calculated using ISO/IEC 19798 standards based on 5% coverage per colour page, providing an industry-standard benchmark for enterprise printing output.
