Step-by-Step / Remanufacturing Instructions

Technical: Step-by-Step

Remanufacturing the Lexmark T650 Series Toner Cartridge

The Lexmark T650 series is based on the Lexmark T650 1,200 dpi engine. Depending on the model, the print speed is from 45-55 pages per minute. As with all of Lexmark’s new heavy-duty machines these machines are loosely based on the older Optra S machines, but these are much faster. Due to the speed and fuser characteristics, the toner is completely different and unique to this series.
