Samsung 406S Toner Cartridge

A toner cartridge is a consumable component used in laser printers and photocopiers to produce printed text and images on paper. It contains toner powder, a fine, dry mixture of plastic particles and coloring agents that is transferred onto paper during the printing process.

Toner cartridges are designed to be easily inserted and removed from the printer or photocopier. They typically consist of a plastic housing that contains the toner powder, a drum unit that transfers the toner onto the paper, and a waste toner hopper that collects any excess toner.

When a document is sent to the printer or photocopier, the toner cartridge applies a precise layer of toner powder onto the drum unit. The drum unit then transfers the toner onto the paper, where it is fused onto the paper's surface using heat and pressure.

Toner cartridges are available in a variety of sizes and configurations to fit different printer and photocopier models. Some toner cartridges are designed for use in color printers and contain multiple compartments for different colors of toner.

Overall, toner cartridges are a critical component of laser printing technology, providing high-quality, long-lasting prints for both home and office use. Proper maintenance and replacement of toner cartridges can help ensure the longevity and performance of your printer or photocopier.
