Sharp Toner: MX-…GT references
Sharp equips businesses with robust copiers and multifunction devices, whose consumables follow their own nomenclature. Knowing the suffix GT and the toner/developer distinction helps choose the right Sharp toner without error. This guide explains it to you. To identify your cartridge, use our Find your toner tool; for basics, see the guide to choosing your toner.
The GT suffix: the toner cartridge
At Sharp, toner is identified by the suffix GT (e.g. MX-235GT, MX-312GT). For color, the reference ends with a color code: BA (black), CA (cyan), MA (magenta), YA (yellow) — for example MX-23GTBA. A color copier therefore uses four toner references.
Toner (GT) or developer (GV)?
Key point on Sharp copiers: the toner (GT) and the developer (GV) are two distinct consumables. The toner contains the ink and is replaced regularly; the developer is the magnetic developer, which lasts much longer. As with Konica Minolta, do not confuse the two: toner is almost always replaced.
