    [Misc] MP C6502: same brand, alternative toner?

    Good morning,
    We own two Ricoh MP C6502 machines. Due to pandemic, there is a severe lack of toner for this model in my country. But we still are able to get a lot of toner for other models (C751, C7501, C5100...)

    Could we refill our cartridges with an original Ricoh brand, different model toner?
    Which model is more suitable to do this?

    Thank you!

    Only if the recipe number is the same.

        Thank you,
        Here is a picture of the Cyan toner. The recipe number is 564. It is in a box near the bottom right of the component list.

            I believe that c5100 has the same toner. Its the same machine.

              Same toner, different cartridges and quantity in the cartridges.

                And lower price for 5100.
                My customers with 8002 series are all buying cartridges for 5100.
