You cannot use that toner on any machine other than the C6500/6501 series.

It's all just crushed bowling balls, right?

Wrong.

Both the chemicals inside and the toner diameter matters, even more in modern toner.

If you're feeling like playing russian roulette, go ahead. But more likely than not, you'll come back here wondering why the print quality is so bad that you need to spend some hundred $$$ in order to put everything back right again.

Also, the C6500 toner is not a crushed product. Every particle is identical in size and shape...spherical.
