Frequently Asked Questions

Why does this set contain five cartridges when the printer only has four slots?

Four of the cartridges fill the black, cyan, magenta and yellow positions; the fifth is a shelf spare drawn from the same four part numbers — black 106R03480, cyan 106R03477, magenta 106R03478 and yellow 106R03479. The idea is that the first cartridge to run dry gets replaced immediately from the shelf instead of stopping work while you wait on a delivery.

Which color is the spare cartridge?

The listing does not fix the spare to one color, so check the label on the fifth box when it arrives — it will be one of 106R03480, 106R03477, 106R03478 or 106R03479. Treat using that spare as your reorder signal: once it goes into the machine, the shelf is empty again and it is time to restock.

What page counts do the cartridges carry?

The black cartridge, 106R03480, is rated at up to 5,500 pages. Each color — 106R03477 cyan, 106R03478 magenta and 106R03479 yellow — is rated at up to 2,400 pages at 5% coverage. Because the black typically outlasts the colors, a spare in one of the color positions is the one most likely to be called on first in a color-printing office.

Will this set fit my printer?

It is built for the Phaser 6510 and the WorkCentre 6515, the two machines that take the 106R03480-series cartridges. Matching the part number on a cartridge you already own is the quickest confirmation.

How should I store the spare until I need it?

Keep it sealed in its box, flat, in a cool dry cupboard away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Toner does not dry out the way ink does, so a cartridge held this way stays ready for many months; just give the box a quick check for damage before the day you install it.

What do warranty and returns look like on this set?

All five cartridges carry a 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns, with details on our shipping & returns page. Orders ship from our Illinois, Pennsylvania, Georgia or California warehouses, and the support team answers Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST. The 5 color set is $56.20.

About This Xerox 6510 5 Color Set

Think of this as the 4 color set plus insurance: the four working positions covered by black 106R03480, cyan 106R03477, magenta 106R03478 and yellow 106R03479, and a fifth cartridge from the same numbers waiting on the shelf. At $56.20 it suits a small office that cannot afford a dead printer mid-week. More cartridges for this and other Xerox models are available across the store if you are stocking more than one machine.
