Samsung printers are laser printers, which print using Samsung toner. Samsung makes two types of laser printers: monochrome (black and white) and color. Laser printers and toner cartridges have the advantage of a longer life and higher page yield than inkjet printers with smaller ink cartridges. While toner cartridges generally cost more when you buy them, their long life makes them economical because you don't buy them as often.
Extend the life of your new toner cartridge using Samsung's toner save function, which reduces quality to get 25% more pages per cartridge. To get a few more pages when the low-toner indicator first comes on, remove the cartridge from the printer, gently shake it and re-install it.
Use the following strategies to get new ink or toner for your Samsung printers:
1. Buy Samsung laser toner cartridges made by Samsung.
2. Find compatible toner cartridges made by other manufacturers for use in Samsung laser printers.
3. Save money with Samsung toner refill kits, which allow you to refill your current toner cartridge instead of buying new.
Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done
Find the correct Samsung laser cartridge for your printer
Find the correct cartridge model for your printer in one of several ways. Consult the printer's manual or check the label of the current cartridge. Look online at the manufacturer's website or use an online toner finder, an interactive tool that identifies the correct cartridge model when you supply the printer manufacturer and model.
I recommend: Find the correct cartridge model number at
SAMSUNG's website, which provides information on all company products.
Costco Wholesale Corporation offers an Ink & Toner Finder, which lets you search for ink by brand name and cartridge number.
Buy Samsung toner cartridges online
Some online retailers offer Samsung ink and toner at lower prices than local stores. Choose a vendor with low-cost or free shipping for additional savings. Consider how often you use new cartridges before you buy in bulk; manufacturers recommend you store cartridges no longer than 24 months to ensure quality toner.
I recommend: Buy Samsung ink cartridges at
Buy.com Inc.
InkJetSuperStore and
Supermediastore.com sell compatible Samsung laser printer toner cartridges.
Save money with Samsung toner refill kits
Samsung toner refill kits cost less than a new cartridge and work for both monochrome and color printers. Refilling a cartridge takes about 5 minutes following the enclosed instructions and requires a regular screw driver. Try a small order first, if you are unsure about the quality of refill kits.
I recommend: Meritline.com provides a tool to help you choose the right refill kit. Get free shipping on refill kits when you buy them at

Tips & Tactics
Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide
- Recycle your used toner cartridges. Check the Material Safety Data Sheets at the manufacturer's website to see if your Samsung printer cartridge contains any hazardous chemicals.
