I own an m254dw . Got a spiffy new 202x Cyan HP genuine toner cart coming today from Amazon but opened the cartridge drawer and pulled it out and there doesn't seem to be any indicator saying what order my 4 toners should be in. Is it truly random?

 

Yes I only use genuine HP toner -I think it would be nuts to do otherwise.

Also use only HP paper, buy it by the case.
