Canon 731 toner cartridge 1 pc(s) Original Black

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

The Canon 731 Original Black is one of those “boring but dependable” toner options. If you’ve got a compatible Canon laser and you want consistent print quality with minimal hassle, this is a sensible buy—especially in an office where you’d rather not play roulette with third-party yields and reliability. At £49.63 ex‑VAT, it’s not the cheapest route per page, but “cheap” toners can end up costing more in drum/paper jams, reprints, and time lost to troubleshooting. In other words: if your printer is used daily, paying a bit more for the OEM cartridge can actually be value.

I’d recommend it for small teams and busy admin departments that need steady black text (invoices, purchase orders, reports) and don’t want to babysit consumables. I’d think twice if you print very high volumes and you’re cost-optimising aggressively—then you’ll probably get better total cost from an established compatible or high-yield option, provided your printer tolerates it well. If your priority is lowest cost per page, the key question is: what’s your typical monthly page count and your actual cartridge yield in your machine? If you want, tell me your printer model and rough pages per month and I’ll sanity-check whether this £49.63 is a good deal.
