Frequently Asked Questions

Our C2620DW prints mostly documents — how long will one of these last us?

Longer than the colours beside it. The CLT-K505L is rated at 6,000 pages, and a document-led C2620DW spends that rating on letters, invoices and reports at close to the standard coverage the rating assumes. A desk printing a ream a week is looking at roughly three months per cartridge; lighter use stretches it further. Colour pages draw on all four cartridges, but the black remains the one doing the daily work.

Is this the black the C2620DW asks for by name?

Yes — the CLT-K505L is the black listed for the ProXpress C2620DW, and the same cartridge also serves the ProXpress C2670FW. If the cartridge you pulled out carries that code on its label, this is its replacement. Its in-machine partners are the CLT-C505L, CLT-M505L and CLT-Y505L colours, each on its own level and its own schedule.

What happens when the black runs out halfway through a colour job?

Colour pages need black as one of their four components, so an empty CLT-K505L holds colour work up as well as text work; the printer will flag the empty cartridge and wait for the swap. The changeover itself is a front-door job of a minute or two — which is why keeping one sealed spare beside a busy C2620DW is worth more than any setting.

How much does the C2620DW's black cost us per page?

The cartridge is $45.14 across a 6,000-page rating, which is about 0.75 cents of black per page at standard coverage. Set against the standard-capacity CLT-K505S, the high-yield version asks more at the till and less on every page — for a machine that prints documents all day, the page figure is the one that adds up.

How should the spare be stored until its turn comes?

In its bag, in its box, flat and dry, away from direct sunlight and heat. Toner keeps without a schedule — a spare bought this quarter prints exactly as well next quarter — so the sensible moment to buy is when the low warning appears, not when the pages start fading.

What if the cartridge gives trouble after fitting?

It is covered by a one-year warranty against defects, and the purchase can be returned free of charge at any time within the first year; our shipping and returns page explains the process. Support is staffed Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST, and orders ship from the closest of our IL, PA, GA and CA warehouses.
