Frequently Asked Questions

One black cartridge for seven machine variants — how does that simplify our stores?

Considerably. The Canon GPR-31 black, part number 2790B003AA, serves the imageRUNNER C5030 and C5035, the ADVANCE C5030 and C5035, and the ADVANCE C5235, C5235A and C5240. A mixed fleet of those machines needs exactly one black SKU on the shelf — no per-model variants to stock, miscount or let go stale. For a central stores operation, that standardisation is worth as much as the cartridge's price.

How long will a 36,000-page black last across a busy department?

The GPR-31 black is rated at up to 36,000 pages. A department copying and printing a few thousand pages a month will measure its life in quarters rather than weeks, and because the family's colours are rated at 27,000 pages, the black typically needs changing least often of the four. Tying the reorder to the machine's meter reading keeps a spare arriving just before it is needed.

What is the black's cost per page?

At $91.92 against a rating of up to 36,000 pages, the black component costs roughly 0.26 cents per page at standard coverage — the lowest per-page figure in the GPR-31 family. Finance teams building a cost-per-copy rate for these machines can use that as the black share.

Why do our order records specify 2790B003AA instead of the cartridge name?

Part numbers remove ambiguity that names cannot. "GPR-31 black" could be misread against the GPR-30 or GPR-36 families; 2790B003AA cannot. The family's colours follow it in sequence — cyan 2794B003AA, magenta 2798B003AA, yellow 2802B003AA — so a stores system keyed to part numbers picks the right unit every time, whichever member of the fleet raised the request.

Our ADVANCE machine's text has gone grey — replace or repair?

Replace first, on the evidence. Text that fades evenly across the page is the classic end-of-life signature of a black cartridge; rock the unit gently side to side, print a test page, and if density returns only briefly, the cartridge is finishing its 36,000 pages. Fading confined to one edge, or marks repeating down the page, points at the machine — that is the pattern worth a service call.

What cover do we get on a compatible fleet cartridge?

A 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns, the same as every compatible cartridge we sell. If a 2790B003AA fails early, it comes back to us rather than landing in your consumables write-off. Support runs Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST, and terms are on our shipping & returns page.
