Warm golden shades completing every photo, poster and slide you produce.
Condition: New
Note: price and availability are subject to change without prior notice
HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge, part number W2412A, is ready at Mascom International for KSh 10,900, with a yield of 850 pages as rated by HP. It is an original HP LaserJet supply, sold brand new and sealed from our shop at Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD. The HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge serves the HP Color LaserJet Pro M155 and the M182 and M183 multifunction printers. Yellow is the lightest of the four toners, yet it shapes every green, orange, red and skin tone the printer makes, so a low yellow changes the look of a whole page.
Designed for teachers, university students, photographers and small shop owners, the HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge handles posters, project slides, menus and price cards. A research poster at Kenyatta University or JKUAT, full of charts and diagrams, relies on yellow for every green bar and orange label. When yellow runs low, greens turn blue, oranges turn pink and photos look cold. A fresh HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge brings warmth back to the page and saves a second print run on costly card stock or glossy paper.
Many Nairobi electronics shops sell yellow toner with no clear part number or seal, which leaves buyers guessing. Mascom International sells only sealed HP stock and names the exact HP code on every listing. Shoppers from Mombasa to Nakuru tell us a sealed original spares them the cost of a ruined poster run before an open day or a product launch. Order the HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge on WhatsApp for pay-on-arrival delivery, or walk in on Kimathi Street and leave with it in hand after our staff check the part number against your printer model.
Common Questions About the HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge
What is the price of the HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge in Kenya?
The HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge is priced at KSh 10,900 as a sealed HP original at Mascom International, Nairobi CBD. With that price you get a 6-month warranty on manufacturing defects and pay-on-arrival delivery to any county in Kenya. It matches the cyan and magenta 216A cartridges and costs KSh 900 more than the KSh 10,000 black. All three colour cartridges together come to KSh 32,700, and adding the black brings the full set to KSh 42,700.
Should I buy the HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge alone or the full 216A set?
Buy the HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge alone when only yellow shows low on the control panel; it costs KSh 10,900. The full four-cartridge 216A set costs KSh 42,700 and makes sense when every level is near empty, or when you want spares before a busy season. Since each colour empties at its own pace, single purchases match spending to actual use. Buying the set at once saves repeat orders but ties up more cash on the shelf.
Does coastal humidity in Mombasa affect the HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge?
Humidity can make laser toner clump and paper curl, so keep the HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge sealed in its packaging until you need it. In Mombasa, Kilifi or Lamu, store spares in an air-conditioned room or a closed cupboard away from sea air. Load paper from a freshly opened ream, because damp paper causes more print faults than the toner does. Once installed, the cartridge sits protected inside the printer's closed body.
Should a home user with an HP Color LaserJet Pro M155 buy the HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge, or is it a poor fit?
A home user with an HP Color LaserJet Pro M155 should buy the HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge once yellow runs low, because it is the original cartridge HP lists for that printer. It is a poor fit for families who print a few colour pages a month on an inkjet, which needs ink cartridges instead. Households printing mostly homework in black should replace only the black. Owners of another HP printer should confirm the cartridge number first.
Will the HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge work in an HP Color LaserJet Pro M255 or M283?
No, the HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge will not work in an HP Color LaserJet Pro M255 or MFP M283. Those printers take the HP 207A yellow, while the 216A is made for the M155, M182 and M183. Both families carry HP chips that each printer checks, so a mismatched cartridge will not be accepted. Mascom International confirms your printer model before dispatch, so you never pay for a cartridge your machine refuses to use.
Is the HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge good for printing photos and posters?
The HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge prints posters, charts and flyers well, giving the printer the warm tones it needs for greens, oranges and skin. Colour lasers suit graphics and text better than glossy photo prints, where a photo inkjet gives smoother gradients. For school posters, menus and shop price cards, toner output is sharp and comes out dry, so you can pin pages up straight away. Use the printer's heavy-paper setting when you print on card.
How quickly can I get the HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge outside Nairobi?
Orders for the HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge reach major Kenyan towns such as Eldoret, Kisumu, Nyeri and Thika the next business day. Nairobi and its environs receive it the same day, while six northern and coastal counties listed in our delivery section below take two to three business days. Every delivery is pay-on-arrival, so you inspect the sealed HP box before paying by M-Pesa or cash. Mascom International confirms the dispatch time on WhatsApp when you order.
How long does the HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge last for a home user?
At 20 colour pages a week, the HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge lasts about 42 weeks, based on the 850-page rating at 5% coverage. That spreads the KSh 10,900 cost to roughly KSh 256 a week. Heavy photo pages burn yellow faster, so a family printing school projects every weekend may need a replacement sooner. Watch the yellow level on the printer's control panel and order when the first low-toner warning appears.
Technical Specifications
Page Yield and Print Quality
- Rated at 850 pages to ISO/IEC 19798, the same test method HP applies to every colour cartridge in the 216A set.
- Tested at about 5% yellow coverage, so bold banners and yellow backgrounds will finish the cartridge sooner than that.
- Yellow forms greens, oranges, reds and skin tones when the printer combines it with cyan and magenta on the page.
- HP's original toner keeps warm colours from shifting when you swap in a fresh cartridge halfway through a project.
- Pages leave the printer's heated fuser dry, so posters and price cards can go straight onto a wall or display.
Printer Compatibility
- HP Color LaserJet Pro M155 series, the print-only desktop colour laser in HP's 216A group of printers.
- HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M182 range, M182n included, which prints, copies and scans from one compact unit.
- HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M183fw, the four-in-one model HP lists, adding fax to the M182 functions.
- The printer reads the HP chip, and fitting outside HP's list will be refused, so confirm your model first.
- Printers from the 207A family are excluded; the M255 and M283 need 207A supplies instead of this one.
Cartridge Build and Technology
- Sealed by HP at the factory, and the outer seal is your sign that the toner inside is untouched.
- No drum inside; the printer's separate HP 219A imaging drum keeps working across a series of toner swaps.
- Changed on its own, so yellow can be replaced while black, cyan and magenta carry on printing.
- A chip tracks the yellow level, and the printer warns you on its panel when the toner is getting low.
- HP code W2412A is the reference to use for tenders, quotations, purchase orders and stock records.
Running Cost
- KSh 10,900 over 850 pages comes to roughly KSh 12.82 per yellow page at the coverage HP tests with.
- About KSh 256 a week for a home user printing 20 colour pages, worked out from the rated yield.
- Matches cyan and magenta at KSh 10,900 and sits KSh 900 above the black cartridge in the same family.
- Three colour cartridges cost KSh 32,700, and adding KSh 10,000 for black gives a full set at KSh 42,700.
- Black-only pages cost about KSh 9.52, so print drafts in mono and save yellow for final copies.
Inclusions
- One HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge, W2412A, in HP's sealed retail packaging, ready to install.
- A Mascom International 6-month warranty for manufacturing defects, assessed at our Nairobi CBD service desk.
- Countrywide delivery with payment on arrival, and same-day delivery inside Nairobi and its environs.
- A WhatsApp model check so the cartridge matches your printer before it is dispatched from our shop.
- Walk-in purchase at Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street, six days a week for buyers near the CBD.
Package Contents
Your order contains one HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge, HP part W2412A, in HP's sealed box. There is no drum, cable or paper in the pack, because the cartridge only replaces the yellow toner. Open the seal beside the printer, not before, to keep dust and moisture out of the cartridge. Reuse the carton afterwards to carry the empty cartridge to a collection point or to dispose of it without spilling leftover toner.
Warranty
The HP 216A Yellow Toner Cartridge is covered by Mascom International for 6 months against manufacturing defects. If a fault from manufacture shows up within that time, bring the cartridge to our Nairobi CBD service desk, and the claim is handled there by our staff.
