Chips, Printer Messages & Installation
Take the cartridge out of its bag, rock it gently side to side five or six times to spread the toner evenly, then pull out the sealing tape and remove any protective strips or covers before installing. Handle it by the body, not by any rollers.
Run a few test pages after installing; light or streaky first pages usually clear up as the toner settles. Still having trouble? Contact us and we'll make it right.
Compatible (Newly Manufactured) vs. Original
Original (OEM) toner cartridges are made by the printer brand and cost the most. Compatible toner cartridges, like this one, are newly manufactured by a third party to the same size and specifications as the original, with new components and fresh toner, rather than being a refilled used shell. Castle Ink sells compatible (newly manufactured) toner and remanufactured inkjet cartridges.
Other Options for the Same Printers
We don't currently stock another cartridge for these machines. Check our Find Ink by Printer page or contact us if you need something else for this model.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many pages does the Samsung TD-55K print?
About 5,000 pages at roughly 5% coverage. Your results will vary with what you print.
Which printers use the TD-55K?
Samsung ML-5000A, ML-5000G, ML-5050G and ML-5100A laser printers.
Is TD-55K the same as ML-5000D5?
Yes. ML-5000D5 is another part number used for the same black toner cartridge.
Is this an original Samsung cartridge?
No. It is a compatible, newly manufactured cartridge. Castle Ink is not affiliated with Samsung; the Samsung name is used only to identify compatibility.
Will this void my printer warranty?
No. Under the U.S. Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, a manufacturer can't void your printer warranty just because you used a compatible toner cartridge. If a non-original cartridge directly caused damage, that specific repair might not be covered.
How much will I save versus the original?
About 1.0¢ per page versus about 1.7¢ for the Samsung TD-55K at Toner Cartridge Depot (prices checked October 2026), roughly 40% less per page.
How should I store it?
Keep it sealed in its bag and box, lying flat, at room temperature and away from direct sunlight, heat and humidity. Remove the packaging only when you're ready to install it.
When will my order ship?
Orders placed by 4 PM ET, Monday through Friday, ship the same business day from Long Island, NY, by USPS (2–5 business days). Expedited 1–2 day delivery is available at checkout, and shipping is free on orders over $50.
