High-volume document workflows rely on combining high-yield black toner with long-life imaging components to maintain sharp text without unexpected downtime. Our 4.8 Google rating proves it: we consistently supply premium cartridges backed by rock-solid reliability.
Expected page output and replacement cycles
High-volume office environments rely on high-yield Black toner cartridges rated under ISO/IEC 19752 standard testing. Standard coverage assumptions calculate yield based on five percent page coverage for standard monochrome text documents.
| Cartridge Number | Type | Colour | Page Yield | Cost Per Page |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| X860H21G | High Yield | Black | 35,000 | $0.004 |
Cost Per Page = Total Cartridge Price ÷ Page Yield (at 5% coverage). Prices based on Genuine cartridges.
Imaging Drum Component
The X860H22G drum unit is a separate long-life imaging component that typically outlasts multiple toner cartridge replacements before requiring a routine swap.
Managing high-volume corporate replacement stock
If you handle continuous office document workflows, maintaining an extra Black toner cartridge on-site eliminates printing halts during heavy print cycles. Free delivery applies on all orders over $99. All orders ship rapidly from our distribution centres across Australia, including warehouses in Perth, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide.

Pro Tip
Monitor toner levels and drum lifecycle warnings independently, as replacing the X860H21G Black toner cartridge does not reset or replace the X860H22G imaging drum.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know when to replace the X860H22G drum unit versus the X860H21G toner cartridge?
The Lexmark X862 displays distinct messages for each consumable. The X860H21G toner cartridge provides the black powder for printing, whereas the X860H22G drum unit transfers the electro-static image onto the paper. Replacing the toner cartridge will not resolve print degradation caused by an exhausted drum unit.
What standard determines the 35,000-page yield rating for the X860H21G black toner cartridge?
The page yield is measured using the ISO/IEC 19752 monochrome print standard, which bases calculations on a consistent 5% coverage per A4 page. Print jobs featuring heavy line graphics or dense text blocks will deplete toner faster than standard business letters.
Can I store spare Lexmark X860H21G toner cartridges for long periods without loss of print quality?
Yes, genuine Lexmark toner cartridges remain stable for up to 24 months when stored in their sealed packaging in a cool, dark environment away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
