Q: Can I use a compatible or refilled cartridge?

You can, but yield, quality and level reporting vary. We sell only original Canon cartridges.

The Canon imageCLASS LBP162dw uses the Canon 051 (2168C001, 1,700 pages) black or high-yield Canon 051H (2169C001, 4,000 pages) — genuine Canon only, from $80.

The Canon imageCLASS LBP162dw is a wireless single-function monochrome laser printer designed for small offices that want fast, low-cost black-and-white printing. It prints up to 30 pages per minute on letter paper (24 on legal), delivers the first page in about 6 seconds and prints two-sided automatically. Output is 600 x 600 dpi with up to 1200 x 1200 dpi quality for sharp text.

A 250-sheet cassette keeps refills infrequent, and the 5-line LCD makes setup and status checks simple. Wi-Fi, Ethernet and USB are all built in, with AirPrint, Mopria and the Canon PRINT Business app for mobile printing. The LBP162dw uses the Canon 051 toner cartridge or the high-yield Canon 051H for a lower cost per page.
