Do not confuse the 216A with the 117A
This is the most common mistake in the aisle. HP Color Laser machines — the 178nw, 150a and their sisters — take the 117A plus a separate drum. HP Color LaserJet Pro machines, such as the M182n, take the 216A with no drum. Two families in a similar format, sold side by side, with cartridges that cannot be swapped.
The reliable marker is the machine's full name, printed on the front: look for the word "LaserJet". If it is there, it is a 216A.
What this machine changes about your consumption
The M182n is the wired version of the series: Ethernet, with no Wi-Fi and no fax. It is a machine for a fixed desk or a small network, often installed once and forgotten — which is exactly why its part number gets searched for years after purchase, when nobody has the box any more. Write it down: 216A.
Its colour toners hold 850 pages, against 700 on entry-level Color Laser models. The gap is real over time, and it is one of the rare places where moving up a range shows directly on the consumable.
Do all four have to be changed at once?
No. The four part numbers are independent and black runs out first in almost every office use. The M183fw, its twin with fax and Wi-Fi, takes exactly the same toners: one stock covers both.
