HP LaserJet Pro MFP M426fdn toner
Your LaserJet Pro MFP M426fdn takes the 26X (high yield) and 26A (standard yield). At our price that is about 0.4¢ a page.
The HP LaserJet Pro MFP M426fdn is a mono laser all-in-one in the LaserJet Pro MFP M426 series, which shares cartridges across 2 models.
It takes two black cartridges that differ only in capacity: the 26A at about 3,100 pages and the 26X at about 9,000. At our prices that is 1.2¢ a page against 0.4¢, so the high-yield cartridge costs less to run unless you print very little.
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.
