Why choose the genuine HP 655A toner cartridge
The CF450A is the standard black cartridge of the HP 655 series. All-in-one cartridge: toner, imaging drum and developer are replaced together, so print quality is like new at every change, with no separate drum to replace. Genuine HP toner with JetIntelligence: smart level tracking, anti-fraud technology and maximized yield.
One capacity only
The HP 655 series comes in a single capacity for this color (12,500 pages). Other colors: CF451A, CF453A, CF452A.
Printers compatible with the CF450A
The CF450A is compatible with 8 HP models (manufacturer list):
- HP Color LaserJet Enterprise M681f (J8A11A)
- HP Color LaserJet Enterprise M681dh (J8A10A)
- HP Color LaserJet Enterprise Flow M682z (J8A17A)
- HP Color LaserJet Enterprise Flow M681z (J8A13A)
- HP Color LaserJet Enterprise M653x (J8A05A)
- HP Color LaserJet Enterprise M653dn (J8A04A)
- HP Color LaserJet Enterprise M652n (J7Z98A)
- HP Color LaserJet Enterprise M652dn (J7Z99A)
Check the exact reference of your printer (label at the back or Information menu); suffixes (dn, dw, fdw, n) are variants of the same series and use the same consumables.
Page yield
12,500 pages per ISO/IEC 19752 (5% coverage, letter-type documents). Graphics or photo-heavy pages reduce the actual yield. The cost per page shown next to the price is calculated from the current price and this yield.
Installation and maintenance
Tool-free replacement: open the cover, remove the used cartridge, take the new one out of its bag, rock it gently to distribute the toner, pull the protective tab if present, then insert until it clicks. The printer recognizes the cartridge and resets the counter. Used HP cartridges are returned free of charge through HP Planet Partners.
Use and tips
The CF450A suits intensive or shared use: the cartridge (12,500 pages) lasts over 3 years at 300 pages per month and about a year at 1,000 pages per month.
Store the cartridge in its packaging, flat, away from light and humidity, and unpack it only when installing. At the "Low" alert, order: the printer keeps printing until "Very low" then "Replace". The driver's EconoMode extends life for drafts. Genuine cartridges preserve the printer's HP warranty.
