HP Black Toner P1102

The HP 85A is the all-in-one black toner cartridge designed specifically for the widely popular HP LaserJet Pro P1102 series.

Like other classic HP desktop models, this uses an All-in-One cartridge architecture. The toner supply, internal green OPC drum cylinder, developer roller, charging roller, and cleaning blade are integrated into a single unit. Replacing the cartridge refreshes the entire imaging system at once.

Compatible Printer Models:

This chassis design spans across several compact desktop monochrome models and multi-function printers (MFPs):

• LaserJet Pro P1102 / P1102w / P1109w

• LaserJet Pro MFP M1212nf / M1214nfh / M1217nfw

• LaserJet Pro MFP M1132

Technical Specifications & Part Numbers:

ℹ️ Note on High-Yield Options: Unlike larger HP series, there is no official high-yield “85X” cartridge manufactured by HP for this machine frame. The physical dimensions of the P1102 hopper opening only accommodate the standard CE285A shell profile.

Key Technical Information:

• Smart Chip Placement: The cartridge features a small electronic contact microchip on the top guide rail. On the LaserJet P1102 series, this chip tracks estimated toner life. If you use an aftermarket cartridge with a missing or non-original chip, the printer will still function, but the computer dashboard will show a “Toner Low” or “Non-Genuine Supply” status flag.

• Canon Cross-Reference (Engine Twin): HP co-developed this engine with Canon. The HP CE285A cartridge is structurally and mechanically identical to the Canon CRG-125 (used in the Canon imageCLASS LBP6000 / LBP6030w series) and the European Canon CRG-725.

• Component-Level Rebuilding Spec: For remanufacturing, parts distribution, or sorting inventory bins:

  • OPC Drum Cylinder: Uses a standard gears-attached 240mm green aluminum core.

  • Wiper Blade & PCR (Primary Charge Roller): These parts share identical dimensions and tolerances with the older HP 35A (CB435A) and HP 36A (CB436A) series, making them completely interchangeable across all three families.

  • Magnetic Roller Sleeve: Requires a standard 10mm diameter magnetic sleeve core.
