Samsung CLP-310 CLP-315 CLP-315W Toner Cartridges
Your Samsung CLP-310, CLP-315, and CLP-315W printers use the Samsung CLT-409S toner cartridge series. Ink Depot has been supplying reliable consumables for these printers since Jan 2009. These compact desktop colour laser printers are built for small office document printing, where colour toners like C409S, M409S, and Y409S deplete independently based on page coverage. Our 4.8 Google rating reflects a long-standing track record of premium cartridge performance.
Expected Page Output and Replacement Cycles
Page yields for the Samsung CLT-409S toner series are calculated according to ISO/IEC 19798 testing standards for colour laser printers. Standard C409S, M409S, and Y409S cartridges deliver roughly 1,000 pages per colour toner under standard five percent coverage conditions.
| Cartridge Number | Type | Colour | Page Yield | Cost Per Page |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CLT-C409S | Standard | Cyan | 1,000 | $0.068 |
| CLT-M409S | Standard | Magenta | 1,000 | $0.068 |

Choosing Between Genuine and Compatible Options
Opting for compatible Samsung CLT-409S cartridges offers an economical alternative to genuine replacements while maintaining clear print output for daily paperwork. Under Australian Consumer Law, using compatible cartridges does not void your printer warranty. Read our genuine vs compatible cartridge guide to evaluate which option best suits your workspace.
Best Way to Stock These Cartridges
For regular office documentation, compatible C409S cyan cartridges lower per-page expenses, backed by a money-back guarantee if performance is unsatisfactory. If exact factory colour reproduction is required for client presentations, genuine Samsung cartridges remain the ideal choice. Check our returns policy for details on product guarantees.

Pro Tip
Always check your colour print ratio before ordering; because colour laser toners deplete at different rates depending on graphics usage, purchasing individual C409S, M409S, or Y409S cartridges as required avoids holding unused stock.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do the Samsung CLP-310, CLP-315, and CLP-315W all use the same toner cartridges?
Yes, all three printer models share the same Samsung CLT-409S toner cartridge series, including C409S, M409S, and Y409S units, making them fully interchangeable across the CLP-310 series.
Why do colour toners like C409S, M409S, and Y409S exhaust at different times during document printing?
Colour toner consumption depends on the specific colour balance of printed documents. Pages containing logos, diagrams, or highlighted text pull more heavily from specific primary toners, causing uneven depletion across the CLT-409S set.
How should spare CLT-409S toner cartridges be stored prior to installation?
Store unopened toner cartridges horizontally in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent toner powder settling unevenly or clumping inside the cartridge shell.
Will printing high-coverage graphics reduce the expected page yield below 1,000 pages?
Yes, the 1,000-page rating for standard C409S colour toners is based on 5% page coverage. Full-page colour graphics or dense marketing materials use significantly more toner per page, reducing the total page output proportionally.
