Frequently Asked Questions
The blue bars in our charts print purple, but the black text is flawless. What is failing?
Only the color mix. Black text comes from its own cartridge and never touches cyan, so it stays crisp while every blue element in your charts quietly changes identity. Chart blue is mixed from cyan and magenta; with the cyan cartridge fading, magenta dominates the recipe and blue bars emerge violet, lavender or outright purple, meeting after meeting. Sharp text plus wrong blues is the fingerprint of a spent color cartridge — and on this machine that cartridge is the 106R03896.
Copies from the glass look washed out in the blue areas too. Same problem?
Yes — copying and printing share one toner path. The scanner half of the C605 spends no toner at all; it only reads the page. But the moment that scan is laid onto paper, the printer half builds the image from the same four cartridges, so a copy of a blue document suffers exactly the shortage a print job does. One exception worth knowing: if a scan saved to a folder already looks wrong on screen before anything is printed, that points at the scanner, not at toner. Wrong only on paper means toner.
We pulled a cartridge stamped 106R03896 out of our C605. Is this listing its replacement?
It is. The stamp is the surest identification the machine offers — it names the color, the capacity class and the family in one code, and it is printed right in this listing's title so the match takes seconds. The one cartridge covers both the Versalink C605 on your floor and its sibling the Versalink C600, so a mixed fleet still stocks a single cyan code. Whatever the old unit says is what you order — nothing else about the machine enters into it.
The panel says cyan is low, but the machine serves the whole department. When do we order?
Order when the warning appears, not when the pages force you. That low message is a coverage-based estimate rather than a dipstick reading, and it is deliberately early — but a shared C605 can burn through the remaining margin in a single heavy week of reports and handouts. The practical routine for a departmental machine: keep one sealed 106R03896 on the shelf, swap it in when output actually fades, and let the empty shelf slot be your reorder reminder. A department never has to gather around a printer waiting on a delivery.
How should we budget the 6,000-page rating for a busy shared printer?
Plan on the rating, then discount it for your mix. At $48.46 the cartridge costs about 0.81 cents per rated page, and the 6,000-page figure assumes the standard 5% coverage test page. A department printing color decks, charts and copied handouts covers far more of each sheet than that, so cyan will finish sooner than the headline number; a month of mostly memos could just as easily beat it. Use the rating to compare cartridges honestly, track your first cartridge's actual lifespan, and budget from your own machine's evidence after that.
If the new cartridge does not fix the chart colors, what protection do we have?
A year of it, in writing. Every cartridge we sell is backed by a one-year warranty and free returns for that full year, so a defective or damaged unit comes back to us at no cost. Orders ship from our warehouses in IL, PA, GA and CA, and the full policy lives on our shipping and returns page. Questions before you order? Our support team is available Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST.
About This 106R03896 Cyan Toner Cartridge for the VersaLink C605
In the box is a single Clever Supplies compatible cyan cartridge replacing the Xerox 106R03896 — 6,000 rated pages at $48.46, about 0.81 cents per rated page. On a multifunction machine like the C605, cyan works double shifts: it builds the blues in printed reports and in every copy run through the glass, which is why its failure shows up everywhere at once — purple chart bars, washed-out copied skies, greens drifting olive. The remedy stays deliberately boring: match the code on the cartridge you removed, seat the new one, and get the department's color back.
