True Color Toner 85A MICR Cartridge

This premium compatible toner cartridge replaces HP CE285A for MICR printing on LaserJet P1102 and M1212NF MFP devices. It delivers black output at a standard yield of 1600 pages measured at five percent coverage. The single-pack unit is designed for cheque and financial document production.

Installation is a direct drop-in replacement

Remove the used cartridge, shake the new unit gently, pull the sealing tape, and insert it until it clicks. The chip is pre-installed so the printer recognises it immediately. The only common issue occurs if the tape is not fully removed, which can cause light streaks on the first few pages.

MICR toner is limited to magnetic-read applications

The formulation meets ANSI X9 standards for cheque clearing but is not intended for general office documents. Yield drops sharply when printing heavy graphics or solid black areas beyond the five percent test page. The cartridge works only with the two listed LaserJet models.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the MICR toner is printing valid checks after installing it in my HP LaserJet P1102?

Print a test check and confirm the MICR line at the bottom is sharp, dark and readable by a bank scanner; the cartridge yields up to 1600 pages at 5% coverage.

What comes in the box and do I need to buy a drum unit separately for the HP M1212NF MFP?

The pack contains one black CE285A MICR toner cartridge; the drum is built into the cartridge so no separate drum purchase is required.

Should I choose the standard-yield 1600-page CE285A or a high-yield version for my LaserJet P1102?

Only the standard-yield CE285A at 1600 pages is offered; there is no high-yield MICR version in this listing.
