What toner and drum does the Canon imageRUNNER 2202N need, plus 3 compatible models

Looking for the toner and drum for your Canon imageRUNNER in the 2200 series? The cartridge you need is the Canon C-EXV42 and, in most configurations, the Canon C-EXV42 drum. Our compatible version of the toner yields 10,200 pages and the drum reaches up to 55,000 pages, with the same print quality as the original and for a fraction of the price. See the compatible C-EXV42 toner.

Is it compatible with your printer?

The imageRUNNER family in the 2200 series shares the same monochrome printing mechanics, so they all fit the same consumable. The variants differ above all in speed and in the connectivity and finishing functions: the letter N indicates a networked model (printing from several computers), while the letters iF point to a multifunction machine with more office options (printing, copying and integrated workflow). The consumable, however, is the same. If you own any of these models, this is your toner:

• Canon imageRUNNER 2202N
• Canon imageRUNNER 2204N
• Canon imageRUNNER 2206N
• Canon imageRUNNER 2206iF

The consumable you need and what it yields

In these laser machines the system is two pieces: the toner, which provides the printing powder and runs out with use, and the drum, the image unit that transfers the toner to the paper and lasts much longer. That's why one drum accompanies several toners over its useful life: you change the toner several times before you have to replace the drum.

• Compatible Canon C-EXV42 toner: yields 10,200 pages measured with the ISO/IEC 19752 standard (standard yield for monochrome toner). It's the option for the office's day-to-day.
• Compatible Canon C-EXV42 drum: the image unit, with a useful life of up to 55,000 pages. You don't need to change it every time the toner runs out; only when you notice a loss of quality after many cycles.

If your print volume is high and you're looking to space out replacements even further, there's a higher-capacity alternative for compatible machines: the compatible Canon C-EXV32 toner, which yields 19,400 pages (ISO/IEC 19752). Choose the C-EXV42 if you want the series' standard consumable; consider the C-EXV32 if you print a lot and prefer a long-lasting reference. When in doubt, confirm which one corresponds to your machine with the printer finder.

How much printing costs you

Here is the key to the savings: our compatible consumables offer the same page yield as Canon's originals, but cost much less. With a toner that yields 10,200 pages and a drum that withstands up to 55,000, your cost per page falls notably compared to always buying the original brand, without giving up quality or reliability.

We don't give you a loose figure that becomes outdated: check the current price of the toner and of the compatible drum on each product page. And if you want to see the real saving based on what you print each month, run the numbers with our savings calculator.

Frequently asked questions

Does the compatible C-EXV42 work the same as the original Canon?

Yes. The compatible C-EXV42 toner is manufactured to fit and perform like the original in the imageRUNNER 2202N, 2204N, 2206N and 2206iF. It maintains the declared yield of 10,200 pages (ISO/IEC 19752) and the same text and detail quality in monochrome.

How many pages does the toner print and how many the drum?

The C-EXV42 toner yields 10,200 pages and the C-EXV42 drum has a useful life of up to 55,000 pages. In other words, the drum accompanies several toners before needing replacement. If you're looking for greater autonomy per cartridge, the compatible C-EXV32 toner yields 19,400 pages. You can expand on the difference between toner and drum in our guide toner vs. drum.

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

No. According to article 120 of RDL 1/2007 (the General Law for the Defence of Consumers and Users), using a compatible toner or drum does not void the warranty of your Canon machine. The manufacturer cannot force you to buy only consumables of its brand. You have more detail on our warranty page.
