For the most part, the C360/C280/C220 share consumables as well as accessories. But, while the toner is reputedly the same, the toner bottles for the C360 (TN319-K/Y/M/C, or A11G-130/230/330/430) are different from the toner bottles for the C280/C220 (TN216-K/Y/M/C, or A11G-131/231/331/431). The toners appear to be the same, the bottles the same size and shape, but the bottles are keyed differently. I'm sure there is a reason for that, but I can't think what it would be, and at least one manufacturer of compatible toner cartridges claims to cover both versions with common cartridges -- that is, the cartridges are keyed for both C360 and C280/C220. Is it safe to give them a try? Anyone know what is KM's purpose for keying them differently?
