HP 207A Yellow Toner Cartridge is available at Mascom International for KSh 13,700, an original HP supply with part code W2212A and a rated yield of 1,250 pages. We sell it brand new and sealed, in the box HP ships it in. The HP 207A Yellow Toner Cartridge feeds the yellow layer that HP Color LaserJet Pro M255 and M283 printers mix with cyan and magenta to produce greens, oranges, reds and warm photo tones. It is ready to collect at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, with pay-on-arrival delivery for buyers outside town.
Built for schools, clinics, tour operators and small agencies across Kenya, the HP 207A Yellow Toner Cartridge keeps colour pages looking balanced. Yellow is easy to overlook because it rarely appears alone, yet without it greens turn blue, oranges turn pink and faces look cold. Many buyers only notice the problem when a safari brochure, a health poster or a school prize certificate comes out with odd colours. Installing the HP 207A Yellow Toner Cartridge corrects the mix straight away, and the printer's chip reading gives an honest view of how much yellow remains.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that sell yellow toner of unknown origin, Mascom International carries only the sealed HP original of the HP 207A Yellow Toner Cartridge. Buyers throughout Kenya report that cheap yellow refills fade or turn greenish, which ruins colour balance across the whole page. At Mascom International, we're seeing more schools and county offices buy all four 207A colours together before each term or financial quarter. Visit the shop with your printer model, or message us on WhatsApp, and we will check the fit and send the cartridge out the same day within Nairobi.
Common Questions About the HP 207A Yellow Toner Cartridge
What does the HP 207A Yellow Toner Cartridge cost in Kenya?
Mascom International prices the HP 207A Yellow Toner Cartridge at KSh 13,700 in Nairobi CBD, as a sealed HP original with part code W2212A. That price comes with a 6-month warranty on manufacturing defects and pay-on-arrival delivery to every county. The cyan and magenta 207A cartridges are also KSh 13,700, while black is KSh 12,600, KSh 1,100 lower. Ordering yellow alone is the sensible move when it is the only gauge showing low.
Is the HP 207A Yellow Toner Cartridge the same as the HP 203A yellow?
No, the HP 207A Yellow Toner Cartridge and the HP 203A yellow are separate cartridges for different printers, and neither fits the other's machine. The 207A is made for the HP Color LaserJet Pro M255 and M283. The 203A belongs to the earlier M254 and M281 printers, which look similar on a desk. The two names differ by one digit, so buyers mix them up often. Read the model on your printer's front panel, then buy the matching family.
Can a school in Eldoret or Kisumu get the HP 207A Yellow Toner Cartridge without travelling to Nairobi?
Yes, Mascom International delivers the HP 207A Yellow Toner Cartridge to schools in Eldoret, Kisumu and other major towns by the next business day, and you pay when it arrives. Bursars can send the printer model and quantity on WhatsApp, and we confirm the order before dispatch. This saves a teacher the bus fare and a lost day in town. For schools in Mandera, Wajir, Marsabit, Lamu, Tana River or Turkana, allow 2-3 business days.
Do I need to replace all four HP 207A cartridges at the same time?
No, you replace only the cartridge that is empty, so the HP 207A Yellow Toner Cartridge can go in on its own while black, cyan and magenta stay in place. Each colour empties at its own pace, depending on what you print. The printer's control panel shows a separate level for each cartridge. Changing a half-full cartridge early simply wastes the toner left inside it, so let the gauge decide when each colour is due.
Why does my printer need the HP 207A Yellow Toner Cartridge if I print mostly text?
Your M255 or M283 expects all four 207A cartridges installed to run, so the HP 207A Yellow Toner Cartridge must be in place even for text-heavy work. Text pages use mostly black, which means yellow empties slowly in a text-focused office. Any colour you do print, such as green headings, orange charts or a coloured logo, relies on yellow. If most of your pages are plain text, a monochrome laser would cost less to run.
How much does a full set of HP 207A cartridges cost at Mascom International?
A full set of black, cyan, magenta and the HP 207A Yellow Toner Cartridge costs KSh 53,700 at Mascom International. That is KSh 12,600 for black plus KSh 13,700 for each of the three colours. Offices setting up a printer that arrived with nearly empty starter cartridges often buy the whole set at once. Schools and county offices sometimes order a set against a budget line before term begins, and we can prepare a quotation on request.
Who should buy the HP 207A Yellow Toner Cartridge, and who should pass?
Buy the HP 207A Yellow Toner Cartridge if you use an HP Color LaserJet Pro M255 or M283 and your greens, oranges or skin tones have started to look wrong. Tour operators, clinics printing health posters and schools making certificates benefit most. Pass if your printer is an M254 or M281, which needs HP 203A supplies, or if you own an inkjet. Offices that need high colour volume every day should ask about HP's 207X range instead.
Does the HP 207A Yellow Toner Cartridge print good photos and banners?
The HP 207A Yellow Toner Cartridge gives an M255 or M283 the yellow it needs for natural skin, grass and sunset tones in photos and simple banners. A colour laser prints photos clearly on plain paper but does not match the finish of a photo printer on glossy stock. For event banners, menus and safari price sheets on standard paper, results are bright and even. Large solid yellow areas consume toner quickly, so lighter layouts stretch each cartridge.
Technical Specifications
Page Yield and Print Quality
- HP's rated yield is 1,250 pages, based on ISO test pages that stand in for typical office colour documents.
- Solid yellow blocks, sunset photos and bright backgrounds use toner faster, so pages per cartridge fall on that kind of work.
- Yellow is the base colour behind greens, oranges and reds, mixed in layers with cyan and magenta on every colour page.
- A full yellow level stops greens from looking blue and keeps human faces in photos from appearing cold or grey.
- Original HP toner keeps yellow clean and stable, avoiding the greenish or muddy cast that poor-quality toner can leave.
Printer Compatibility
- Designed for the HP Color LaserJet Pro M255, the single-function colour laser printer that prints but does not scan.
- Designed for the HP Color LaserJet Pro M283, the multifunction model that scans and copies as well as printing in colour.
- HP's product page lists only the M255 and M283 families as compatible with the 207A yellow cartridge.
- The cartridge's HP chip communicates with listed printers only, so any other LaserJet model will not recognise it.
- Earlier M254 and M281 printers use the HP 203A range, a common source of confusion when reordering yellow.
Cartridge Build and Technology
- Filled with HP JetIntelligence toner, which pairs HP's toner formula with a chip that talks to the printer.
- The chip passes the yellow level to the printer, so the control panel shows a reliable reading for this colour.
- An early low-toner alert gives you time to order a replacement before greens and oranges begin to shift.
- HP's authentication features let the printer confirm the cartridge is genuine and flag any counterfeit or tampered unit.
- Code W2212A and the 207A number appear on the label, which avoids mix-ups with the W2213A magenta cartridge.
Running Cost
- KSh 13,700 divided by 1,250 pages works out to about KSh 10.96 per rated yellow page.
- A complete set of four 207A cartridges costs KSh 53,700, with black at KSh 12,600 and each colour at KSh 13,700.
- At KSh 10.96 per page, a school printing 300 colour certificates a term spends roughly KSh 3,288 on yellow.
- Yellow often empties more slowly than black in text-heavy offices, so it is replaced less frequently there.
- Pale backgrounds and yellow accents, rather than solid yellow panels, make each cartridge last across more print jobs.
Inclusions
- One HP 207A Yellow Toner Cartridge, carrying part code W2212A, in HP's original sealed box.
- HP's recycling guide, packed with the cartridge, describing how to return the empty shell when it runs out.
- Mascom International's 6-month warranty for manufacturing defects, with claims dealt with at the Nairobi CBD service desk.
- No printer, cable or paper is included, since the cartridge replaces a supply in a printer you already have.
- Black, cyan and magenta 207A cartridges can be ordered separately or together as a full set.
Package Contents
The HP 207A Yellow Toner Cartridge is supplied in its original sealed HP box. Inside sits the W2212A yellow cartridge and a printed HP recycling guide covering what to do with the empty unit. Paper, cables and the other colours are not included. Most buyers replace yellow on its own, but if your M255 or M283 needs a full refresh, Mascom International can bundle black, cyan and magenta into the same order.
Warranty
The HP 207A Yellow Toner Cartridge carries a 6-month Mascom International warranty against manufacturing defects, for example a chip the printer cannot read or streaky yellow output from the first page. Bring the cartridge and receipt to our Nairobi CBD service desk, where every claim is reviewed in person.
