Frequently Asked Questions

Who still runs a LaserClass 310 hard enough to need five cartridges at once?

More offices than you might expect. The LaserClass 310 remains a working fax in medical and dental practices moving referrals and records, in law offices exchanging signed documents, and in businesses whose customers and suppliers still fax orders. Where the fax line is genuinely busy — or where two or three 310s are in service across a site — a 5-pack of FX-8 cartridges (part number 8955A001AA) is simply the shelf stock that keeps the line fed without a standing order to manage.

What is the cheapest per-page figure in this family?

This pack is it. Five cartridges at 3,500 pages each total 17,500 pages for $150.95 — $30.19 per cartridge and about 0.86 cents per page. Against five singles at $44.98, which would cost $224.90, the pack saves $73.95 and pulls the FX-8's page cost down from roughly 1.29 cents to well under a cent.

Is five cartridges too many for one fax machine?

For a single lightly used 310, honestly, it can be. At a few dozen fax pages a month, five cartridges could span the machine's remaining life and then some. The sensible test is your monthly page count: if the machine works through a cartridge in a few months, the 5-pack's price is worth taking; if a cartridge lasts you the better part of a year, the 3-pack is the more honest shelf size and still saves money per cartridge.

Does the pack suit a site with several LaserClass 310 machines?

Yes — that is its natural home. The FX-8 (8955A001AA) fits the LaserClass 310 only, so one pack held centrally covers every 310 on the premises with a single part number to store and reorder. No per-machine stock to track, and no department guarding its own cartridge while another machine sits empty.

How should stock be rotated across a pack this size?

Date the outer box when it arrives and take cartridges in order, oldest first. Keep them sealed and flat in a cool, dry store away from sunlight, and rock each unit gently side to side before fitting it. Simple habits, but with five cartridges in hand they are what stops the last one in the box being a surprise.

What backing comes with the pack?

Every cartridge carries a 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns, individually, exactly as if bought singly — full terms on our shipping and returns page. Orders ship from our warehouses in Illinois, Pennsylvania, Georgia or California, and support is available Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST.
