The QMS 2400 cartridges look similar to the QMS2300 but

ar

e not interchangeable. The print speed on the QMS2400 is 5

ppm color and 20 ppm black. Both the cartridges and the sep

­arate drum/waste cartridge are easily accessible and are loaded
from the top of the printer. The toner cartridges have changed
from a mechanical “new cartridge” sensor on the QMS2300 to
a memory chip.
