KYOCERA MFD staples

[Koldov]

We have a number of Kyocera MFDs around the building and one of them has run out of staples, I've looked online but most searches end up with 'How to replace the staples' videos etc. What it makes it more difficult is that there appears to be 2 different sizes and I need to work out which ones I need and even the manuals don't seem to cover the sizes, only how to replace them. I think it even makes a difference what type of 'finisher' is attached to the printer as I believe you can have different versions on the same model of printer! Also, when I've looked at some of the staples online they're not listed or don't appear to be compatible with the all of the finishers/MFDs, but I've swapped them round and they do all fit. 

 

The MFDs are:

 

TASKalfa 5054ci

TASKalfa 5004i

TASKalfa 5052ci

 

The finishers are:

 

DF-7110

DF-7140

 

Anyway, there are 2 places for staples... at the bottom of the booklet finisher there are two sets of staple cartridges... we have those, they are slightly smaller and are KYOCERA 1903JY0000 - SH10.

 

 

However, there is another place for staples about half way up (the larger cartridge), but I don't know what they are as there's no real markings.

 

 

Does anybody have these, who are a little more organised with their consumables and know what they are SH-12 or SH-14 maybe...?

Can you not log in to your kyocera portal click the printer and order consumables you need for it?

 

That's what we can do in our Ricoh portal?

[Koldov]

We don't have a portal, the printers are 'managed' (and I use that term loosely) so, we have a contract but only for toners and doesn't include other consumables like staples.

 

To get them from any type of original manufacturer would probably be prohibitively expensive, so we'd be scouring Amazon etc.

Ah ok that's not a good situation to be in.  This is why I always go for contracts direct from the manufacturer - always had staples waste toner bottles, toners of course,  and all other bits included in the contract then.

We have a few of these and would fit SH-12s in that slot.

Think it looks like Sh-12 as well, staples we have are SH-10 (same as SK-602) and MS10A which have the paper/card tab you pull to release
