What toner does the HP Color LaserJet Enterprise M555x need, plus 5 compatible models

Actualizado 18 julio 2026

Looking for toner for your HP Color LaserJet Enterprise in the M554, M555 or M578 series? The cartridge you need is the HP 212A (W2120A). Our compatible version yields 5,500 pages with the same print quality as the original, and costs a fraction of its price. See the compatible HP 212A toner.

Is it compatible with your printer?

The HP 212A (W2120A) is the consumable fitted by all the printers in this Color LaserJet Enterprise family. If you have any of these models, this is your cartridge. The variants change mainly in the equipment, not in the toner: the dn ending includes a network connection and automatic double-sided printing (duplex); the x models add more capacity and extended features; the letters MFP indicate it's a multifunction machine (it prints, copies, scans and, depending on the model, sends faxes), and Flow adds advanced scanning and document-management functions. On all of them, the toner is the same.

The consumable you need and what it yields

The compatible Startoner HP 212A (W2120A) toner incorporates a chip and yields 5,500 pages measured according to the ISO/IEC 19798 standard, the official standard for colour toner. It's the reference designed for these machines, so installation is direct: you put it in and print, with no adjustments or loss of quality.

Remember that in a colour printer you need the four colours (black, cyan, magenta and yellow) to reproduce the full colour range. Each cartridge in the 212A series works independently, so you only replace the colour that runs out. If you want to see the full range and its yields, you have the complete collection of compatible HP toner.

Here is the real advantage. Our compatible HP 212A offers exactly the same 5,500-page yield as the original cartridge, but for a portion of what the brand costs. Translated into cost per page, you print the same paying much less, without giving up print quality.
