Frequently Asked Questions
Our event flyers are supposed to be orange, but the C605 keeps handing us red ones. Why?
Because orange is a partnership and one partner has gone quiet. The printer builds orange from magenta warmed by yellow; take the yellow away and magenta prints on alone, which the eye reads as red or pink-red. Flyers expose the shortage mercilessly because they carry huge fields of the color — a small drift in a paragraph is invisible, but a poster-sized orange gone red is the whole page shouting. When orange is the color that moved, on this machine family the yellow cartridge — the 106R03898 — is where the trail leads.
Copies from the glass show the same wrong colors. Does scanning use toner too?
No — scanning uses none at all. The scanner only reads; every copy is then printed by the same engine and the same four cartridges as a computer print job. That gives you a clean diagnostic: email yourself a scan and look at it on screen. If the file looks correct but the paper copy comes out shifted, the scanner is innocent and the printing side is confessing — a color cartridge is spent, and the green-and-orange direction of the shift names yellow.
This listing says C605, but the cartridge code is what I keep seeing everywhere. Which one decides?
The code decides — it always does. Model names describe the machine; the cartridge code 106R03898 describes the supply, and that single string carries the color, the yield class and the family. This cartridge serves both the VersaLink C600 printer and the Versalink C605 multifunction — the C605 on this page and its Versalink C600 sibling drink from the identical yellow unit. Read the code off the cartridge you pulled out; if it says 106R03898, this is its replacement, whatever the badge on the machine says.
The machine mostly prints black text. How did yellow finish first?
Shared machines spend color in ways nobody tracks. Color originals copied in a hurry, the color logo on every letterhead, composite grays the driver builds from all four toners, routine calibration cycles that sip from every cartridge — each draw is small, and on a workgroup unit nobody owns the supplies shelf, so nobody watches the color levels fall. Yellow also hides inside the two most common accent colors, green and orange. Add it up across a department and the palest cartridge can quietly reach empty while the black unit still shows half full.
How should a copy-heavy office read the 6,000-page rating?
As a ceiling measured gently. The rating assumes about 5% of each page is covered; a flyer or a copied photo spread can cover most of the sheet, and coverage is what a cartridge actually spends. At $48.46 the rating works out to roughly 0.81 cents per rated page, but a copy-heavy workflow — handouts, posters, color originals — will land under 6,000 pages simply because each sheet drinks more. Keep a sealed spare on the shelf and the shortfall never becomes a deadline problem.
What protection comes with this cartridge?
A full year of it. The warranty runs one year, and returns are free across that whole year, whether the unit arrives damaged or the color never comes back true. Stock leaves our warehouses in IL, PA, GA and CA, and the complete terms live on our shipping and returns page. Questions before you order? Support answers Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST.
About This Yellow 106R03898 Cartridge for the VersaLink C605
One cartridge in the box: a Clever Supplies compatible yellow unit replacing the Xerox 106R03898, rated at 6,000 pages and priced at $48.46 — about 0.81 cents per rated page. On a multifunction like the C605, yellow does double duty across print jobs and copies alike, warming every orange and completing every green the machine produces. Its shortage never shows as missing yellow; it shows as flyers gone red and copies gone cool, usually discovered by whoever is standing at the output tray. Match the code on the spent unit to the title of this listing and the fix takes one step.
