Why choose the genuine HP MLT-D304L toner cartridge
The SV037A is the high yield black cartridge of the HP MLT-D304 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 powder matched to the fuser and paper of these printers: sharp text, even solids, no "cartridge not recognized" message.
MLT-D304L or MLT-D304E: which capacity?
The SV037A (20,000 pages) suits occasional or moderate use. From about a hundred pages a month, the SV031A (40,000 pages) costs less per page and is replaced less often; both fit the same printers.
Printers compatible with the SV037A
The SV037A is compatible with: ProXpress M4530, M4583.
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
20,000 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 SV037A suits intensive or shared use: the cartridge (20,000 pages) lasts over 5 years at 300 pages per month and about a year and a half at 1,000 pages per month. Beyond that, the SV031A (40,000 pages) costs less per page.
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.
