Well, just googling for "epson cx11nf toner" gave me several results.

I personally like lasertechservices.com service and prices. They have "compatable" Epson cx11nf cartridges for $30.2 (black) to $33.95 (Cyan, Yellow, Magenta). If your a little more technically skilled, they also have toner refill kits for your printer for only $93.95 (all 4 colors, includes reset chips). Some printers don't allow you to "refill" the starter toners that came with it, so you may need to buy the cartridges the first time around (ask them, they will know).

I only mention the above site because I have used them myself for my printer(s), but there are many other companies doing the same thing. Try to choose a supplier with good technical support, in case you happen to run into any problems (as in, do they have a phone number to call, because "email only support" sucks).

    Oh, okay, I see what that thing is now... Technically its called a "developer roller" or "toner developer roller". It basically transfers the toner from the toner bin to the photoconductor drum.

    Wow, most laser printers have that thing as either part of the photoconductor drum assembly (single-pass printers), or at least part of the toner cartridge (multi-pass printers). Looks like Epson found another way to overcharge people for yet another consumable.

    As far as I can tell (after doing an extensive google search), that part is made ONLY by Epson. Although they look A LOT like the ones in Konica-Minolta printers (must use the same print engine design). Try looking on google shopping search for the exact part number(s) you need. You might find it cheaper than buying it directly from Epson.

    I would recommend getting a laser printer that doesn't have this kind of flawed design. When researching for a new laser printer, look at the cost of ALL consumables, not just the toner. Consumables (things that either get empty, or eventually wear out) usually consist of toners, photodrum(s), transfer belt, and fuser (and for your printer, 4 "toner developers"). Look for a printer or printer brand that tends to have a lot of "after market" (aka clone/compatible) consumables, or consumable reset chips/devices.

    An older "used" refurbished printer can sometimes be the best deal out there (get at least a 30 warranty though), because there are usually after market consumables, especially for business/work-group class printers (your best bet if you do a lot of printing). For example, my P3005N B&W HP printer (refurbished), with extra tray (can hold 2 reams of paper) only cost me about $160, with a full high yield toner (about $200 if you include the $39 cost of getting HP tech support for a year). My Samsung CLP-510 color laser printer is slow, has some driver problems, but it only cost me $69, all 4 color toner refills are only $119 with reset chips, and the expensive consumables don't have end of life chip in them. It was so cheap I bought two of them, just for the expensive consumables. Printers that haven't been out for very long probably won't even have after market toners available for at least a year.

    Unfortunately many laser printer Mfg's have gotten wise to the toner after market biz, so they design their much harder to copy parts (like your toner developer drum, fuser, & transfer unit) to stop working after X number of prints, even if it is perfectly fine. Another trick they do is to redesign their printers slightly (same print engine technology, same toner, just different size now) every few years, which keeps the after market companies from making the expensive consumables (like fusers) because there are only a few hundred thousand of those printers out there, and most of those people get their consumables from the Mfg or just get a new printer... Printer companies don't sell printers, they sell consumables.

    Unfortunately, most printer companies design their products to be cheaper to throw away than to fix.

    Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Not printing any colour from dell Color Laser 5110cn - not even from test page

There are 3 possibilities for missing colors.

1. Developer Motor (part number YD415) is probably what's failing. You can go to diags by holding the Up and Down arrows while powering on. Scroll to IOT diags, the select Digital Outputs, select test DO-19. You can open the covers and remove the Image Drum, allowing you to watch the Developer Motor's 4 gear clusters. If any stall, or work noisily, then you've found the problem. http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTeZa2DDHKesDvdFWjmLhBVXiiavpd4Ck1L9vuCkcF9lci0dZwdQX8CiNE

2. Developers might be failing. (M6090 Magenta, G6593 Cyan, H6682 Yellow) If you've been using 3rd party toners, or had single color ghosting, then this is possible. However, the often don't all fail together.
3. Toner Dispenser ( TF123) drives the toner out of the toner cartridges. Again, only one usually fail at a time.
4. It may be a set-up issue. Perhaps somehow, color is disabled in the document or on the printer. Except that you've already mentioned that test pages also fail.

Best of luck

Is there a way to reset the laser cartridge counter?


I have to ask this question of you, just to make sure this is not an issue. Are you using a factory new ink cartridge?
Please consider the following:
If you are using a refilled or third party cartridge that may well be your problem. Most manufacturers build logic into their products to prevent the use of “Other Equipment Manufactured” cartridges as well as re-filled cartridges.
They do this to prevent problems from contaminated inks causing problems with print quality or damaging the physical printhead.
If you are using factory new cartridges, then please call the manufacturers Technical Support for assistance with the warranty on the cartridges

Epson Acculaser CX11NF Error 'Service Req E527'

Hi.. To fix the E527 error, close the front panel (cover A) and open the top cover (cover B). With the photoconductor unit removed, the toner carousel will rotate. It only rotates if cover A is closed all the way. You can easily rotate the carousel to a position where you can remove/reinstall the toner cartridge if stuck.

Thanks

Develper

The answer to you question is "no". Epson printers do not have developer units mixed in with the toner. They are a seperate unit all together. If you look around, you might find an epson warranty service agent who is happy to sell you the developer, however dependant on the unit, they are fitted in variouse ways and may require some technicle expertise to install.

Dell 5110 cn

Your problem is not fully explained above as to which color you are having difficulty with, however, the explanation below will more then likely apply to your issue as well. Simply substitute "yellow" for the color you are having an issue with. This is the explanation I gave to another user who was having problems with "yellow prints lite".


If you let the yellow ( or any other color ) toner get to the point where the toner cartridge was totally empty, there is one thing you can try which may help. From the "menu", select "maintenance", then go to "clean developer" and choose the ( which ever color ran low ). The machine will then churn for a few minutes. What happens is there is a tube that moves the toner from the toner cartridge down to the developer unit ( which is behind the imaging drum). If the toner was allowed to totally run out, there is an area of the tube which may have little or no toner in it. Each time you print, there is a spring auger within the tube that draws the toner to the developer. By running the "clean Developer" it turns the auger and re primes the tube.

If this does not fix the issue, and you have replaced the imaging unit, then the (insert color ) developer is defective and would need to be replaced.


This involves quite a bit of work and is not considered user replaceable.
