Create a record for the new printer.
- Record the full new model, including all suffix letters.
- Keep its cartridge label or supplied reference to hand.
- Check whether your organisation has an original-only print agreement.
- Mark old order references that belong to the previous printer.
Start again with the full new model
When a printer changes, send the complete new model rather than reorder solely from an old invoice. A replacement printer from the same brand may need a different cartridge family, colour set or capacity.
If you have spare cartridges from the previous device, give the team their exact codes separately. Do not assume they can be used in the new printer. We check any proposed match before you buy more.
Free next-working-day delivery in Oldham
Orders of £20 or more qualify for free next-working-day delivery, subject to stock and order confirmation by 4pm. Friday orders are delivered Monday, or the next working day if Monday is a bank holiday.
Send the full postcode and receiving details with your enquiry. For orders after 4pm, weekend enquiries or a delivery date affected by a bank holiday, ask the team to confirm the arrangements. An enquiry does not place an order or reserve stock. For orders below £20, check the applicable delivery charge with us.
Check the available replacement capacities
Ask for the correct replacement code and stated yield for each available option. The cartridge supplied with a printer does not by itself establish which replacement capacities are available; the exact model needs checking.
If you are comparing a first full replacement with a higher-yield option, make sure the price, toner type and yield refer to the same proposed product. Actual page count depends on what and how you print.
Update purchasing and support requirements
Tell us if the new printer came with a subscription or managed print agreement, or if your organisation requires original supplies. We check compatible and remanufactured options first where suitable, while keeping original toner available.
Once the team confirms a cartridge, record the reference against the new printer and delivery address. Keep it distinct from the retired printer’s record so a future repeat order starts with the right information.
Your Oldham toner questions.
Can I use spare toner from the old printer?
Send both printer models and the complete spare cartridge codes. We need to check the proposed match; a shared brand or similar model name is not enough.
What if I do not have a replacement cartridge code yet?
The full new printer model is enough to begin an enquiry. Tell us the colours and quantities needed and any purchasing restrictions.
Can you keep the old and new printer requirements separate?
List each active model and its department or location in your enquiry. Mark which printer has been replaced so the quotation can identify the requested products clearly.
