Frequently Asked Questions

I print charts, logos and slides all day — why does my cyan drain faster than the rating?

Because the rating assumes a page that is only 5% covered, and yours are not. A full-color chart or a slide with a blue background can lay down ten times that coverage, and cyan carries most of the load in blues, teals and greens. A cartridge rated at up to 5,900 pages of ordinary documents may give a graphics-heavy desk half that count — not a fault, just arithmetic. If cyan is your fastest-moving color, this high-yield version is the sensible default.

The heading says "Cartridges" — am I buying one or several?

One. This listing is the single-cartridge option for the 6280N: one 106R01392 cyan unit, sealed, at $55.94. The plural phrasing belongs to the catalogued range, not to the contents of the box. Buying singly suits the networked desk that reorders on the low warning rather than warehousing a set.

Is the 6280N's cyan the same cartridge the rest of the 6280 line takes?

It is. The 106R01392 serves the whole family — your Phaser 6280N, the base Phaser 6280 and the Phaser 6280DN all take this same high-yield cyan. One part number across the range means a spare bought for one machine rescues any of them.

My prints look dull compared with the screen — should I suspect cyan first?

If the dullness leans cold — blues greyish, greens lifeless, skies washed toward white — yes. A tired cyan cartridge thins exactly those regions while reds and yellows stay bold, which is the giveaway. Print the printer's own color test page: a weak or banded cyan panel settles it, and a fresh 106R01392 restores the balance without touching a single driver setting.

What is my cost per page on this cartridge?

Dividing the $55.94 price by the 5,900-page rating gives about 0.95 cents per page at standard coverage. Graphics work spends toner faster, so your effective figure will sit above that — but the comparison holds: the high-yield cartridge spreads its price over far more pages than a standard unit, which is why it is the economical choice for color-heavy printing.

What cover and shipping terms come with it?

The cartridge is covered by a 1-year warranty, with free returns for a full year — the complete wording is on our shipping and returns page. It ships from one of our warehouses in Illinois, Pennsylvania, Georgia or California, and support is on hand Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST.
