Frequently Asked Questions

Our color work arrives in bursts — why keep a complete trio on hand?

Because a burst rarely warns you. Proposal packs, event handouts and a month-end run of color reports all land in the same week, and a printer that starts that week with one nearly empty color stops mid-job while someone waits on an emergency order. This set removes that scramble: 106R03866 cyan, 106R03867 magenta and 106R03868 yellow wait on the shelf together, each rated at up to 9,000 pages, so one planned purchase covers the next busy stretch across all three colors instead of three separate reactions to three separate low-toner warnings.

Our logo blue has started drifting and greens look muddy — can unevenly aged colors cause that?

Yes. The three colors in a working machine almost never age together, and the oldest cartridge lays down a thinner layer than its fresher neighbours, so mixes that depend on equal parts — corporate blues, greens, neutral greys — are the first to wander. Replacing 106R03866, 106R03867 and 106R03868 as a matched trio gives the printer three supplies at the same strength again, which is why offices often choose a full color refresh when output still prints but no longer looks right, rather than waiting for a cartridge to run completely dry.

Does the 27,000-page total mean one cartridge in this box lasts that long?

No — no single cartridge here is rated anywhere near that figure. Each color is rated at up to 9,000 pages on its own, and 27,000 is simply 9,000 added three times: it describes the combined coverage of all three cartridges in the set, nothing more. Treat it as a measure of the total rated color capacity this one order puts in your stock cupboard. How long any individual color lasts still depends on how much of that color your own pages use.

Is black included, and do all three colors have to go in on the same day?

Black is not included — there is no black cartridge in this set, and black for this platform is a separate listing that you order on its own cycle. The colors are more flexible: nothing forces a same-day swap of all three. You can fit the one color that has run out and keep the other two sealed in the box as ready spares, or install the full trio together when you want the balanced reset described above. The set works as a restock first; how quickly you work through it is up to your printer.

Which badge names on the machine tell me this is the right trio?

Look for the Versalink C500 DN or Versalink C500N printers, or the Versalink C505 X and Versalink C505S multifunctions. Then confirm with the cartridges already in the machine rather than the badge alone: labels reading 106R03866, 106R03867 and 106R03868 on the outgoing color units are the definitive match for the three cartridges in this box.

What cover and delivery terms apply if a color in the set lets us down?

Each of the three cartridges carries a 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns, so a problem with one color is dealt with on that cartridge alone. Your order is dispatched from the nearest of our four US warehouses in Illinois, Pennsylvania, Georgia and California, and the complete terms are set out on our shipping & returns page. If you would like a hand checking codes before you commit, our support team answers Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST, and the rest of the range for this platform can be browsed in the Xerox section of the store.

About This VersaLink C500 Color Trio — 106R03866 Cyan, 106R03867 Magenta and 106R03868 Yellow

Priced at $83.93, this compatible Xerox color set gathers the three cartridges a VersaLink C500 or C505 needs for color work into a single restock: one 106R03866 cyan, one 106R03867 magenta and one 106R03868 yellow, each rated at up to 9,000 pages, giving 27,000 pages of combined color coverage across the three separate units. No black cartridge is included; black stays a separate listing for this platform. It is built for offices whose color demand spikes without warning and for anyone tired of output that drifts off-shade because the colors were replaced months apart — one order restores a matched, full-strength set and leaves spares ready for the next empty bay. Every cartridge is backed by a 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns.
