Frequently Asked Questions

What does this 6-pack bring the per-cartridge price down to?

About $16.41 a cartridge — $98.49 divided across six. Set that against about $19.50 each inside the 3 color set and $31.82 each bought one at a time, and the pattern is clear: every step up in quantity trims the unit price of the same 593-BBBT cyan, 593-BBBS magenta and 593-BBBR yellow cartridges. Against two 3-packs at $116.98, the 6-pack also keeps a further $18.49 in your pocket.

How are the six cartridges divided among the colors?

The six span the printer's three color positions — cyan (593-BBBT), magenta (593-BBBS) and yellow (593-BBBR), each cartridge rated at 4,000 pages — giving you two full color rounds in total. The listing itself does not state a per-color breakdown, so we will not invent one: if your stockroom records need the exact count per color, contact support before ordering and we will confirm it for you.

Is black one of the six?

No. Every cartridge in this box is a color. The black position on the C2660dn platform belongs to the 593-BBBU, sold separately, and it depletes on its own rhythm — most offices replace black more often than any single color. Buying colors in bulk and black as needed keeps the two supplies matched to how they are actually consumed.

Who should buy six at once — and who should not?

Buy six if your C2660dn or C2665dnf prints color daily and a dry color cartridge would stall real work; the second round on the shelf ends emergency orders. Skip it if color printing is a monthly event — a 3-pack already covers years of that pace, and there is no saving in owning cartridges you may never install. The right size is the one your print volume empties.

How do we rotate the stock so nothing sits too long?

Fit cartridges oldest-first: when a color runs out, install the spare from this box and note the date. Store the rest sealed, upright, in a cool dry spot away from windows and heat. Toner keeps well in its sealed bag, so rotation is about tidiness rather than urgency — but a simple first-in, first-out habit means no cartridge is forgotten at the back of the cupboard.

If a cartridge from the box fails months later, what then?

It is still covered. These are Clever Supplies compatible cartridges with a 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns behind every unit in the box, faulty ones included, under the terms on our shipping & returns page. Shipments leave our Illinois, Pennsylvania, Georgia or California warehouses, and support runs Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST if you need a hand.

How should we count the six on arrival if the per-color split matters to our records?

Count by code, not by box. Open the carton and tally the cartridges against the three color codes — 593-BBBT cyan, 593-BBBS magenta and 593-BBBR yellow — noting how many of each you actually received, and check the seals while they are in hand. The listing describes six cartridges across the three positions without stating a fixed split, so your own count is the record your stockroom should work from. If the tally does not match what your records need, contact support before any cartridge is fitted, while the delivery is still exactly as it arrived.

How do we tell first-round cartridges apart from second-round ones on the shelf?

Mark them as they arrive. A simple '1' and '2' — or the delivery month — written on each 593-BBBT, 593-BBBS and 593-BBBR carton turns six identical-looking boxes into an ordered queue: when a color runs out, the hand reaches for that color's earlier-marked box without thinking. It also keeps the rotation honest over the long life of this pack; without marks, the cartridge at the front gets taken every time and the one at the back can wait far longer than intended.

Which of the three colors deserves the closest watching?

The one your documents lean on. Every office has a dominant color — the blue of corporate templates, the warm tones of property or food photography, the accent color in a logo that appears on every page — and that color's cartridge will reach the end of its 4,000 pages ahead of the other two. Identify yours from the first round's fitting dates, then check that slot's gauge whenever you pass the printer. The other colors can ride on the general routine; the dominant one sets the rhythm of the whole set.

How do we keep color restocking and black restocking from colliding?

Give them one shared checking habit and separate triggers. The black 593-BBBU is a separate listing on its own cycle, and these six colors run on theirs — the collision to avoid is discovering both are low in the same week. A single monthly glance at all four gauges covers it: black gets ordered when its gauge calls, colors get drawn from this box as their slots ask, and the box gets replaced when the second round starts thinning. One habit, two independent supplies, no simultaneous surprises.

About This C2660DN 6 Color Set

The 6 color set is the bulk form of the C2660dn color supply: six high-yield cartridges across the 593-BBBT cyan, 593-BBBS magenta and 593-BBBR yellow positions, 4,000 pages per cartridge, priced at $98.49 — about $16.41 each, the lowest per-cartridge figure for these colors on this site. It suits offices that burn through color steadily and want two full rounds under one order. Black stays separate by design; the 593-BBBU is listed on its own within our Dell range. Every cartridge is a Clever Supplies compatible backed by a 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns.
