HP LaserJet Pro M401dn 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 M401dn uses the HP 80A (CF280A, 2,700 pages) black or high-yield HP 80X (CF280X, 6,900 pages) — genuine HP only, from $91.

An 800 MHz processor with 256 MB of memory runs PCL 5e, PCL 6 and PostScript 3 emulation. Standard input is 300 sheets (250-sheet tray plus 50-sheet multipurpose tray), expandable to 800, and it connects over Hi-Speed USB 2.0 and 10/100 Ethernet. HP rates the duty cycle at 50,000 pages a month.

It uses the HP 80A black cartridge (2,700 pages) or the high-yield HP 80X (6,900 pages), both sold as genuine HP originals at GS Toner, singly or in 2-packs.

Standard vs high-yield

Why use genuine HP toner
