HP Color LaserJet PRO MFP M281fdw toner
Your Color LaserJet PRO MFP M281fdw takes the 202X (high yield), 202X (high yield), 202X (high yield) and 202X (high yield). At our price that is about 0.9¢ a page.
The HP Color LaserJet PRO MFP M281fdw is a mono laser printer in the Color LaserJet PRO MFP M281 series, which shares cartridges across 3 models.
It takes 4 cartridges: the 202X, 202X, 202X and 202X.
On this printer the drum is built into the cartridge, so there is no separate drum to buy or reset. Every new cartridge brings a fresh drum with it.
When you compare prices, compare cost per page rather than the sticker price: a cheaper cartridge with half the rated yield costs more to run. Every cartridge here ships free, is covered by our printer damage protection and can be returned within 90 days, opened or not.
