Frequently Asked Questions

Our 1355 prints all day — how long is 2,000 pages of black in real terms?

Shorter than the number makes it sound, which is exactly why this is the high-yield family. The black cartridge, part number 331-0778, is rated at 2,000 pages at 5% coverage; an office putting several hundred pages a week through its 1355 will measure that in weeks, not months. The colors — 331-0777 cyan, 331-0780 magenta and 331-0779 yellow at 1,400 pages each — run on the same clock in a busy office. The practical response is not a bigger cartridge, since this platform's high-yield rating is what it is, but a spare set on the shelf so a changeover never waits on a delivery.

Why are the color cartridges rated lower than the black?

Because the rating follows the job each cartridge does. Black prints text on essentially every page that leaves the machine; each color contributes only where the document actually uses it. Dell sized the black 331-0778 at 2,000 pages and the colors at 1,400 each to match that division of labor. In practice the split means a text-heavy office replaces black more often in page terms but may find the colors lasting longer in calendar terms — and a graphics-heavy office sees the reverse. Either way, the set keeps all four ratings in one box so the planning stays simple.

What is in this set for the Dell 1355?

One cartridge for each slot: black 331-0778, cyan 331-0777, magenta 331-0780 and yellow 331-0779, all high-yield, $46.23 for the four. These part numbers are the shared supply platform for Dell's compact color line, so the same set also serves the Color Laser 1250c, 1350cnw, 1355cn, 1355cnw, 1755nf, 1755nfw, C1760nw and C1765nf. Each cartridge is keyed to its own color slot; match the part number and color on the label to the slot you are filling and the swap takes a couple of minutes.

Our greens look wrong but the text is crisp — which cartridge is responsible?

Green is a two-cartridge color, built from cyan and yellow, so a wrong green means one of those two is tiring. If greens have gone yellowish and weak, suspect the cyan 331-0777; if they have turned blue and cold, suspect the yellow 331-0779. Crisp black text simply confirms the black cartridge is healthy — it plays no part in the fault. Print the printer's color test page and look at the cyan and yellow blocks side by side; the pale one is your answer, and a fresh set restores the balance across all four slots at once.

Is the complete set cheaper than chasing single cartridges as they fade?

In total, yes. The set works out to about $11.56 per cartridge — $46.23 divided by four — and buying the same cartridges singly, in four separate orders across the year, rarely matches that per-cartridge figure once shipping and your own time are counted. There is a hidden saving too: cartridges of similar age produce more even color, so a set change avoids the weeks of slightly-off output that come from one new color working beside three tired ones. For a machine that prints all day, one planned swap beats four small emergencies.

What cover comes with this set?

A 1-year warranty against defects on every cartridge, plus 1-year free returns if a cartridge does not perform — the terms are on our shipping and returns page. These are compatible cartridges, not Dell-manufactured ones, and that cover is what makes them a safe fit for a hard-working office machine. Orders ship from our US warehouses in Illinois, Pennsylvania, Georgia or California, and support is available Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST.
