Sharp MX4071 Toner Cartridges
Your Sharp MX4071 uses the MX-61GT toner cartridge series, delivering high-volume output for busy office workgroups. Ink Depot has been supplying reliable printer consumables since Feb 2022. Our 4.8 Google rating reflects a long-standing track record of premium cartridge performance. Designed as a four-toner system with individual Black (MX-61GT-BA), Cyan (MX-61GT-CA), Magenta (MX-61GT-MA), and Yellow (MX-61GT-YA) cartridges, replacing specific colours as depleted helps maintain efficient workflow without wasting remaining toner stock.
Expected page output and replacement cycles
High-capacity printing demands predictable yields. Page capacity for toner cartridges is measured under the ISO/IEC 19798 standard for colour electrophotographic cartridges at 5% coverage per colour. Actual document coverage varies based on text density and graphic intensity during daily office print runs.
| Cartridge Number | Type | Colour | Page Yield | Cost Per Page |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MX-61GT-BA | Standard | Black | 40,000 | $0.002 |
| MX-61GT-CA | Standard | Cyan | 24,000 | $0.005 |
| MX-61GT-MA | Standard | Magenta | 24,000 | $0.005 |
| MX-61GT-YA | Standard | Yellow | 24,000 | $0.005 |
Cost Per Page = Total Cartridge Price ÷ Page Yield (at 5% coverage). Prices based on Compatible cartridges.
What to know about compatible cartridges
Selecting compatible toner for your office equipment significantly lowers ongoing document printing costs without sacrificing print clarity or operational reliability. Under Australian Consumer Law, using compatible cartridges does not void your printer warranty. Learn more about performance and reliability in our genuine vs compatible cartridges comparison guide.

Pro Tip
Monitor individual colour consumption levels regularly; although the black MX-61GT-BA cartridge carries a higher 40,000-page rating, uneven graphic coverage across cyan, magenta, and yellow (MX-61GT-CA, MA, YA) can trigger toner-low warnings mid-project if replacement units are not stored in reserve.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do individual MX-61GT toner cartridges deplete in a high-volume office setting?
In standard business printing environments, the black MX-61GT-BA cartridge experiences much faster depletion due to general office documentation, invoices, and text reports. Colour cartridges (MX-61GT-CA, MX-61GT-MA, MX-61GT-YA) deplete at varying rates depending on visual branding elements, graphics, and email headers, making individual cartridge replacement ideal.
Will installing compatible MX-61GT toner cartridges affect standard page output ratings?
Quality compatible MX-61GT toner cartridges are filled to match the factory page yields of 40,000 pages for black and 24,000 pages per colour cartridge based on standard 5% coverage rules. Output performance remains equivalent to baseline manufacturer yields.
Do I need to replace all four MX-61GT colour cartridges at the same time?
No, the Sharp MX4071 features separate housing for each of the four colour channels. You only need to replace the specific cartridge that indicates low or depleted toner levels, preventing unnecessary waste of remaining toner in the other units.
