About the Smart Chip
HP Color LaserJet Pro M255 and MFP M283 series printers require a chip on each toner cartridge. These Linford 206A compatible cartridges come with a pre-installed smart chip that supports toner level monitoring and seamless printer recognition.
No chip transfer needed. These cartridges are ready to use straight from the packaging — no need to remove a chip from your old OEM cartridge.
How to Install HP 206A Toner Cartridges
- Open the front cover of your HP Color LaserJet Pro printer
- Pull the toner cartridge drawer out to access the cartridge slots
- Remove the old cartridge from the slot being replaced
- Take the new 206A cartridge from its packaging and shake it gently 5–6 times side to side to evenly distribute the toner
- Remove the protective pull tab completely
- Insert the new cartridge firmly into the correct color slot until it clicks
- Close the printer cover — if prompted with a non-HP cartridge message, press OK to continue
If print density appears light: Remove the cartridge, gently rock it side to side, reinstall and test again.
