Pro Tip
When replacing toner in a colour office printer like the Sharp MX-2318, order a spare MX-23GT-BA black cartridge alongside your colour replacements. Black toner is used in almost every print job (including colour graphics), so having an extra on hand prevents unexpected downtime during high-volume document runs.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do the yields of MX-23GT colour toners compare to the black toner?
The MX-23GT-BA black toner cartridge provides up to 18,000 pages, whereas the MX-23GT cyan, magenta, and yellow cartridges yield up to 10,000 pages each at 5% coverage. Because general business printing relies heavily on text, black toner runs out quicker, which is why the black cartridge is manufactured with a higher capacity.
Will my Sharp MX-2318 prompt a toner replacement before the cartridge is completely empty?
Yes, office printers like the MX-2318 display low-toner warnings when a cartridge reaches approximately 10% capacity. This warning allows you to reorder MX-23GT toners in advance so you can continue printing without interruption.
Why are multi-pack bundles a smart choice for the Sharp MX-2318?
Bundle packs containing all four MX-23GT colours reduce shipping frequency and ensure all primary colours remain available when multi-page colour documents exhaust multiple cartridges simultaneously.
