Kyocera Printer Cartridges & Supplies

Compatible & remanufactured supplies, tested to OEM yield standards. One-year guarantee, same-day dispatch on orders in by 3 PM ET.

Kyocera’s ECOSYS design keeps the photoconductor drum inside the printer for the life of the machine, so the only cartridge you buy regularly is the TK-series toner. A Laser Recharge stocks compatible and remanufactured TK toner across the range: the ECOSYS P2040, P3045, P3155 and M2040, M3145, M3860 mono units; the P5021, P6230, M5521 and M6230 colour models; and the TASKalfa office MFPs. We also carry the MK-series maintenance kits that Kyocera schedules at long intervals to replace the fuser, rollers and, on some models, the drum unit. Kyocera toner carries a chip the printer reads, and our compatible cartridges include a working chip. Because the drum is not a running cost, Kyocera has one of the lowest cost-per-page figures of any laser brand, and compatible TK toner lowers it further. Orders in by 3 PM ET ship the same day from South Florida under our one-year guarantee.

Buying Kyocera cartridges

Kyocera is the simplest brand to buy for, because the drum is not a running cost — it lives in the printer. You buy TK toner as it runs out and, once in a long while, an MK maintenance kit when the printer asks for one.

Match the TK number to your printer model, take the high-yield toner if your workgroup model offers one, and do not go looking for a drum cartridge; there is not one to buy on a normal schedule. Compatible TK toner keeps an already-low cost per page lower still.

Popular Kyocera printer families

ECOSYS mono desktop (P2040, P2235, M2040, M2135, M2540)Compact office mono. One TK toner yield per model (TK-1160, TK-1170, TK-1200 and so on); the MK maintenance kit is due around 100,000 pages.
ECOSYS mono workgroup (P3045, P3055, P3155, M3145, M3645, M3860)Higher-duty mono using TK-3160, TK-3170, TK-3400 and similar. These have a genuinely high-yield toner and a maintenance kit around 300,000 to 500,000 pages.
ECOSYS colour (P5021, P5026, P6230, M5521, M5526, M6230, M6635)Four-cartridge CMYK using the TK-5220/5240 or TK-8600-class set. Buy the set together; a maintenance kit covers the fuser and transfer unit at a long interval.
TASKalfa MFP (2553ci, 3253ci, 4053ci, 5053ci, 3212i, 4012i)Floor-standing office copiers on high-capacity TK toner. Running cost is already low by design; compatible toner is where the extra saving comes from.

How Kyocera cartridges are numbered

TK-series tonerThe one consumable you buy regularly. The number identifies the printer family (TK-1160 for the P2040, TK-3160 for the P3045, and so on). Most mono models have a single yield; the workgroup models add a genuine high-yield.
The drum stays in the printerKyocera's amorphous-silicon drum is rated for the life of the machine or a very long interval, so there is no per-toner drum cartridge to buy. This is why Kyocera's cost per page is low.
MK-series maintenance kitAt a long interval (from about 100,000 pages on small models to 500,000 on workgroup units) the printer calls for an MK maintenance kit: fuser, feed and transfer rollers, and on some models the drum unit. It is a scheduled part, not a frequent one.
Toner chipKyocera toner carries a chip the printer reads for toner level and authenticity. Compatible TK cartridges include a working chip, so level reporting and install go through normally.

Kyocera cartridge FAQs

Why is there no Kyocera drum cartridge to buy?

Kyocera's ECOSYS design puts a long-life amorphous-silicon drum inside the printer, rated for the life of the machine or a very high page count. You buy TK toner regularly and an MK maintenance kit rarely; there is no separate drum to replace on a normal schedule.

What is an MK maintenance kit and when do I need one?

It replaces the fuser, rollers and, on some models, the drum unit, at a long interval set by the printer — anywhere from about 100,000 pages on a small ECOSYS to 500,000 on a workgroup model. The printer tells you when it is due.

Which TK number fits my printer?

The TK number maps to the printer family. Enter your model (for example P3045dn or M3145idn) in the search box and we will show the right TK toner and any maintenance kit.

Will compatible Kyocera toner report the toner level correctly?

Yes. Our compatible TK cartridges include a working chip, so the printer reads toner level and completes the install the same way it does with a Kyocera cartridge.
