Why Buy HP 17 Toner?
HP 17 is an original HP toner cartridge that delivers a reliable performance with every printed page. Rich blacks make text pop with high contrast, making these cartridges great for bold fliers, brochures and sales collateral. A standard HP 17 toner cartridge prints up to 1600 pages on standard printer paper, meaning you won’t have to resupply for a long time depending on your typical print load.
Security is one of the highest priorities for HP — HP 17 toners and printer machines are designed to prevent malicious code that could harm the cartridge or the user’s network. HP 17 toners are also designed to meet ecolabel emissions criteria and are safe for indoor use.
What’s the Difference Between Toner and Ink?
It’s important to understand the difference between toner and printer ink before committing to purchase HP 17 toner cartridges.
Toner cartridges use a dry powder that is bonded to the paper through heat generated by laser printers. The dry substance can help avoid stains and other small inconveniences that can be commonplace for ink and ink cartridges. It also won’t dry up over time, meaning toner cartridges generally last longer than their ink counterparts.
Ink cartridges are normally dye-based and are used by inkjet printers. Ink is more commonly susceptible to smudges and fading. However, both are still reliable options for office or home use.
Which Printers Use HP 17 Toner?
Make sure you're buying ink that’s compatible with your specific laser printer. HP 17 cartridges are compatible with various HP LaserJet Pro printers, but they are not compatible with inkjet printers. Each Laserjet printer model that works with HP 17 toner cartridge is listed below:

Can You Refill HP 17 Toner Cartridges?
Yes, you can technically refill toner cartridges with kits that feature specialized tools for the job. However, it's not recommended to refill toners manually — as the dry powder can be messier and more difficult to deal with than refilling standard ink.
There are certain measures one can take to make sure their toner cartridges last longer without refilling them.
- Check the toner nozzle to make sure it's not clogged
- Remove the toner cartridge
- Cover the toner cartridge in a towel
- Gently shake the toner cartridge to evenly distribute the powder
