What toner does the Canon i-SENSYS MF446x need, plus 8 compatible models

Looking for toner for your Canon i-SENSYS MF446x or any other printer in its i-SENSYS family? The cartridge you need is the Canon 057. Our compatible version with chip yields 3,100 ISO pages with the same print quality as the original, and costs a fraction of its price. See the compatible Canon 057 toner.

Is it compatible with your printer?

The Canon 057 is the toner fitted by a whole family of i-SENSYS machines, both single-function laser printers (LBP series) and multifunction machines that also copy and scan (MF series). If you own any of these 9 models, this is your cartridge:

• Canon i-SENSYS LBP223dw
• Canon i-SENSYS LBP226dw
• Canon i-SENSYS LBP228x
• Canon i-SENSYS MF443dw
• Canon i-SENSYS MF445dw
• Canon i-SENSYS MF446x
• Canon i-SENSYS MF449x
• Canon i-SENSYS MF453dw
• Canon i-SENSYS MF455dw

The letters at the end of the name only indicate the connectivity and functions of the machine, they don't change the toner: the d is automatic double-sided printing (duplex), the w is Wi-Fi and the x marks the most advanced models (higher speed, network and additional functions). All of them, from the most basic to the top of the range, use the same Canon 057. If you are not sure of the exact model of your machine, you can check it in our printer finder.

The consumable you need and what it yields

The compatible Canon 057 toner with chip yields 3,100 pages measured according to the ISO/IEC 19752 standard, the official benchmark for monochrome toner cartridges. It is the same yield reference used to measure the original cartridge, so the comparison is direct: same pages, much lower cost.

It comes with a built-in chip, so the printer recognises it and displays toner levels normally, just like with a factory cartridge. In this family of machines, the toner and the drum are independent pieces: the drum is long-lasting and withstands several toners, so the piece you replace frequently is only this toner cartridge.

If you want to better understand how to identify the correct consumable for your machine, we explain it step by step in the guide how to know which toner your printer needs.

How much printing costs you

The advantage of a compatible is simple: you get the same 3,100 ISO pages as the original, with the same quality, paying quite a bit less per cartridge. That directly lowers your cost per printed page, something that is very noticeable in offices and multifunction machines that print daily.

Instead of giving you a figure that may become outdated, we recommend checking the current price of the cartridge and calculating your real savings with our savings calculator: you enter how much you print and see how much you stop spending compared to the branded toner.

Frequently asked questions

Does the compatible Canon 057 work in my i-SENSYS without problems?

Yes. The Canon 057 is the reference used as standard by the 9 models on the list, from the LBP223dw to the MF455dw. Our version incorporates a chip, so the printer detects it and displays levels normally. You just have to confirm that your machine belongs to this i-SENSYS family.

How many pages does it print?

It yields 3,100 pages according to the ISO/IEC 19752 standard (standard coverage of 5% per page). It is the same measurement criterion as the original cartridge, so you can compare yields fairly.

Does using a compatible toner void my printer's warranty?

No. Using compatible consumables does not void the legal warranty of your printer. Article 120 of RDL 1/2007 (the General Law for the Defence of Consumers and Users) protects that warranty; the manufacturer cannot force you to use only its brand. In addition, our cartridges come with their own 3-year warranty.

How long does shipping take?

We ship within 24-48h across mainland Spain, and shipping is free from €50. This way you have the toner ready before the one you are using runs out.
