The printer reports "Toner Low," and the search for a replacement begins. While Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) toners promise perfect quality, they are often a significant investment. Cheap no-name alternatives lure customers with low prices, but often carry risks regarding print quality, reliability, and even potential printer damage. Is there a middle ground? With the Xerox® Everyday™ Toner series, Xerox, one of the best-known brands in the printing sector, offers a smart solution. These toners are specifically designed to be a cost-effective alternative to the original toners for many popular printer brands, without requiring you to make major compromises on quality and reliability.
Who Exactly is Xerox?
For many, the name Xerox is inextricably linked with copying. Xerox Corporation, originally founded in the USA, was an absolute pioneer in the development of electrophotography (xerography) and launched the first commercially successful automatic office copier onto the market in 1959 - a revolution at the time! But Xerox stands for far more than just copiers. The company has a long history of innovation in document technology, printing, and digital imaging.
Today, Xerox is a globally operating company focused on workplace technology, digital printing systems, software, and services for businesses of all sizes. These decades of experience and deep understanding of printing processes also flow into the development of their consumables. So, when you choose a product like Xerox® Everyday™ Toner, you benefit from the know-how and quality standards of a brand that has significantly shaped printing technology.
OEM / Compatible / Everyday? What's the Difference?
OEM
Also called Original Equipment Manufacturer. These toners are produced by the printer manufacturer (e.g., HP, Brother, Canon, Xerox) for their own devices. This naturally ensures the best possible compatibility and quality, but usually also comes at the highest price.
Compatible
These are toners from third-party suppliers who attempt to replicate OEM cartridges. The quality can vary greatly - from acceptable to problematic. Inferior replicas can result in poor print quality, low page yield, or potential printer damage.
Everyday
This is an official product line from Xerox. The primary goal is to create a high-quality alternative to OEM toners while still being attractively priced. Everyday Toners focus on major printer brands such as HP, Brother, Canon, Lexmark, and others.
Everyday vs Everyday Remanufactured
What is the classic Xerox® Everyday™ Toner?
The 'standard' Xerox® Everyday™ Toner is a newly manufactured product from Xerox. Its key features include:
- Broad Compatibility: Designed for use in a wide variety of laser printers and multifunction devices from manufacturers such as HP, Brother, Canon, Samsung, Lexmark, and other brands.
- Cost Savings: These toners are generally significantly less expensive than the respective original OEM toners from the mentioned printer brands. On average, this results in cost savings of 50-60%.
- Tested & Reliable: Although the toners are more affordably priced, they are developed and tested according to Xerox standards. They deliver consistent print quality, high page yield, and are safe for your printer.
- Brand Trust: You are buying a product from Xerox, an established name in the printing business, which offers more security than unknown no-name suppliers. Support is always available in case of service issues.
- No Warranty Void: A common concern is voiding the printer warranty. Using Xerox® Everyday™ Toners does not void your printer manufacturer's warranty. Xerox stands behind these products.
- Lifetime Warranty: Xerox provides a lifetime warranty on the toner itself. In the rare event of a toner problem, the manufacturer promptly provides a replacement module so you can continue printing immediately.
What is a Xerox® Everyday™ Remanufactured Toner?
In addition to the newly manufactured Everyday™ Toners, Xerox also offers a remanufactured version. Key aspects include:
- Professional Remanufacturing: Empty original toner cartridges (often from the respective OEMs) are collected, carefully disassembled, cleaned, wear parts such as the imaging drum are replaced, and the cartridge is refilled with specially matched, quality-tested toner.
- According to Xerox Standards: This process follows the quality specifications of the Xerox® Everyday™ program and is strictly monitored. All facilities are ISO 9001 certified, ensuring consistent results.
- Maximum Sustainability: Since the cartridge body is reused, this is the most environmentally friendly option. You actively contribute to waste reduction. The toner contents also far exceed current industry standards.
- Tested Quality: The same applies to Remanufactured toners: You receive a reliable cartridge that has been extensively tested to ensure good print quality and page yield.
- Lifetime Warranty: The lifetime Xerox warranty also applies to Everyday™ Remanufactured toners. Should unexpected problems occur, you will receive a prompt replacement from Xerox.
