HP LaserJet Pro M401d toner cartridges

Q: Can I use a compatible or refilled cartridge?

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

The HP LaserJet Pro M401d uses the HP 80A (CF280A, 2,700 pages) black or high-yield HP 80X (CF280X, 6,900 pages) — genuine HP only, from $91.

The HP LaserJet Pro 400 M401d is a monochrome laser printer for small offices and workgroups. It is a single-function, USB-connected printer with automatic two-sided printing, sitting below the networked M401dn and wireless M401dw in the same series.

HP rates it at up to 35 pages per minute on letter paper (33 ppm on A4), with a first page out in as fast as 8 seconds and up to 1200 x 1200 dpi output. The 250-sheet input tray can be expanded to 800 sheets with the optional feeder, and HP rates a 50,000-page monthly duty cycle.

It uses HP 80A toner and the high-yield HP 80X. GS Toner stocks both genuine cartridges as singles and 2-packs, rated for about 2,700 and 6,900 pages.

Standard vs high-yield

Why use genuine HP toner
