The availability seems to be very very poor?
Only a few sellers in eBay. (Lots of sellers in eBay USA).

Black powder OK to get.
But colours - only a handful of options.
Amazon has hardly any at all.

Thanks.

AND... why is this forum not posted to...!?
I see my last post from January still on the first page!

A little statistics might explain. Looking at the forum start page you see a total of 101,274 posts. Canon ink jet printers have 49,078 posts or almost half of all posts. Everything related to ink jet printers total around 80,000 posts or more than 3/4 of all posts. "Laser Printers -Everything-" only has 1013 posts or only around 1%of the total posts.

It is seen the forum is very much an ink jet printer forum, and Canon ink jet printers is by far the most popular subject.

i think @PeterBJ explained :)
just asking, that's all. in the past this and previous version of the forums were amazingly helpful.
it's odd... i can't find any well populated laser forums.
and suppliers are non existent. u always need a good variety i think

@The Hat
You guys are amazing
What I learned from refilling ink jets I taught to maybe 5 others who use everyday and benefit.
This forum is awesome. Wish there was more presence and expertise for laser

Id have to disagree a quick search just now on Amazon UK for "toner powder" and filtering the search to only "Free UK delivery by Amazon" results in over 1000 results.

The results are a mix of bottled toner powder and toner carts, unless you have a very obscure printer i would imagine they have both toner and cart for the printer.

You could also try...
https://www.octopus-office.de/shop/en/Toner-Powder/
Which has carts, powder and even chips for some toner carts.

I would not say toner powder is hard to buy for the UK at all.

If you look through the other forum sections rather than just the laser printers section you will find the forum is regularly posted to. The laser printers section probably gets less posts because errr less people own one.

Agreed.. ;)
@CakeHole, OM2 doesn’t get to visit us very often, his choice, so he’s a bit out of touch, but if he decides to frequent us more then he’d be better informed, maybe the newsletter will help...:hu
