Compare the cartridge references.
The figures below are manufacturer benchmarks for original replacement cartridges, based on ISO/IEC 19798. Actual yield varies with print content and use. Compatible yields may differ; we confirm the exact product specification in your quote.

| TK-5490K ↗Black | Higher-capacity replacement | 2,800 |
| TK-5490C ↗Cyan | Higher-capacity replacement | 2,400 |

Choose a reference to carry it into your enquiry. This requests a checked match and quotation; it does not place an order or reserve stock.
Match the reference to your printer.
These checked examples apply to the references shown beside them. They are not a complete compatibility list. A higher-capacity cartridge may fit fewer printers than the standard version. Send your full model so we can confirm the right Compatible or Original option.
- TK-5490K / TK-5490C / TK-5490M / TK-5490Y
- ECOSYS MA2101cfx
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.
Higher-capacity colour options for MA2101cfx
TK-5490 Original benchmarks are 2,800 pages for black and 2,400 for each colour. TK-5480 is the separate lower-capacity replacement comparison for the checked MA2101cfx example.
Tell us the individual colours and quantities. We confirm the actual Compatible product’s capacity, suitability and current availability rather than assuming every MA2101 variant is covered.
Replacing toner or another supply?
TK identifies toner. Drum, developer, waste-toner and maintenance requirements depend on the printer; include the exact warning rather than assuming a toner container replaces every part.
Help with toner and drum identification ↗What to include for a clear quote.
- Full printer model and cartridge reference, if known.
- Colour and quantity, including individual replacements or a complete set.
- Delivery postcode, deadline and any recognition or firmware message.
We check suitable compatible options first and confirm the product, current price and delivery before you agree an order. Original toner is available if your organisation specifies it.
