Consumables, User-Replaceable Supplies

Consumables

magicolor 7450 consumables are intelligent, easy to monitor, and easy to replace.

Consumable supplies are easily accessible. The inside front cover guides you through the replacement process.

User-Replaceable Supplies

Cyan, magenta, yellow, and black (CMYK) toner cartridges

Cyan, magenta, yellow, and black (CMYK) imaging units

Waste toner box

The magicolor 7450’s four (CMYK) self-contained toner cartridges are each color-coded and keyed for error-free installation and replacement, and feature an intelligent chip that stores information on toner levels for accurate supplies monitoring. (See “Supplies Monitoring” later in this guide for further information.). The magicolor 7450 also includes four (CMYK) imaging units (OPC drum cartridges). After the printer’s laser diode has imaged toner color onto each drum cartridge, the image is transferred to the transfer belt and then to the media.

The printer’s waste toner box captures excess toner from the printing process and prevents engine damage from loose toner particles.

When a toner does require replacement, it’s easily accessible via the front cover (which features step-by-step instructions for removing empty and adding new cartridges).

Simitri Polymerized Toner adheres better to the media surface—as a result, prints are more durable, with images and text that don’t smear or fade.

Simitri Polymerized Toner

KONICA MINOLTA’s Simitri (pronounced “symmetry”) Polymerized Toner produces exceptional output. Its particles are smaller and more uniform in size and shape than conventional, pulverized toner, providing finer lines, better halftones, and improved image quality, regardless of media type used.

Simitri Polymerized Toner also has a higher transfer efficiency than regular toner, further contributing to output quality while producing less waste toner in the form of toner dust, which remains on the surfaces of drum cartridges, transfer belts, and rollers after a page has printed. A lubricant encapsulated within the toner particles eliminates the need for fuser oil, meaning that you have one less consumable to buy. Polymerized Toner is also more environmentally friendly, emitting less carbon acid gas (CO2), nitrogen oxide (NOx) and sulfur oxide (Sox) in production process.
