Excellent question and considering that this type of printer is designed for a business/high output/high usage application, the toner commands a higher price BUT typically will still be far cheaper per page.
Yield of most toner for the laser printers are measured in the thousands.
I did a little comparison shopping for you and anyone else that might be wanting to know(rep is appreciated but not required hint hint) and the avg price per triple camel for a complete (black, cyan, magenta and yellow) remanufactured toner set is ~$180 and ~$350 for factory new.

The toner that comes with any printer is quite a bit lower capacity than one you purchase so this cost is something that you factor in.

I have a similar printer made by Brother that I jumped on before checking BUT got lucky in finding toner that works but is put out by a non-official company , quite a bit cheaper, as well as primarily printing in only monotone.


There are kits for you to refill the stuff yourself but I personally made such a mess that I prefer the second cheapest option.

Got this from Adorama for $10 more. Fantastic printer for the price. I use toner refills, about $40 for a full set, but well worth it. TU!

I bought the previous model SP C250SF for $135 back in Feb, wondering if I should upgrade. The toners are the same which is a plus. Is the upgrade really worth it .... not sure how much I can resell old one to recover some costs. decisions decisions

How big is this AIO compared to a brother laser printer. I wonder if it will fit under a desk in regards to WAF?

Di-mentions:
Dimensions (WxDxH) 16.5 x 19.4 x 18.1" / 42 x 49.3 x 16 cm

Will this scan to a network folder? I can't find it in the documentation.

In case anyone was wondering, this is from the manual: "If cyan, magenta, or yellow toner runs out, you can print in black and white using just the black toner."
Looks like a highly capable device for the price. In for one.

they are referring to a toner refill kit you do yourself. There are videos on YouTube that show you how.

I have purchased replacement chips and put those on my original cartridges and have gotten considerable more life out of them.
