Compare the cartridge references.
The figures below are manufacturer benchmarks for original replacement cartridges, based on ISO/IEC 19752. Actual yield varies with print content and use. Compatible yields may differ; we confirm the exact product specification in your quote.
| Reference / colour | Capacity | Approx. pages |
|---|---|---|
| CF287A ↗Black | 87A standard | 8,550 |
| CF287X ↗Black | 87X high yield | 18,000 |

Example printers for this family.
These are verified examples, not a complete compatibility list. Include your full model and region so we can confirm the specific cartridge before you order.
Different model suffixes, regional cartridges, chips, firmware or subscription arrangements may require a further check. If your model is not listed, ask us to identify your toner.
Include Enterprise model and capacity in fleet enquiries
87A and 87X are two black-toner capacities. The standard figure here follows HP’s current UK 8,550-page listing; older M506/M527 guides show 9,000. List each printer and quantity, retaining the full CF287A or CF287X reference.
For shared office printers, tell us about cartridge-policy settings and any recognition message. We can check a suitable compatible option first, with originals quoted when required; a matching family name alone does not confirm every alternative’s suitability.
Replacing toner or another supply?
Send the exact warning or a description of the print defect. A toner enquiry alone does not establish which component is causing marks, streaks or fading.
