Frequently Asked Questions

Why is this cartridge sold under the number 310-5807 instead of a printer name?

Because 310-5807 is the exact part number Dell assigns to this high-yield black cartridge, and the number is the one identifier that never changes across invoices, manuals and old purchase orders. The printer it feeds is the Dell 5100 and 5100cn color laser, but a listing named after one machine still has to be found by whoever orders with a part number in hand. If the empty unit coming out of your 5100 reads 310-5807 on its label, this is that cartridge — no cross-referencing required.

What does one printed page cost with this cartridge?

The math is straightforward: $48.50 spread over the rated 9,000 pages works out to about 0.54 cents of black toner per page. That is a strong figure for a cartridge of this class — high-yield units earn their keep precisely by pushing the per-page cost down while stretching the interval between swaps. Every figure on this page, the price and the rating alike, describes this compatible 310-5807 cartridge.

What does "high yield" actually buy you here?

It buys time between changes: 9,000 rated pages in a single black unit, so the black slot on a 5100cn needs attention far less often than a standard-fill cartridge would allow. It does not change how the printer behaves day to day — it simply means the cartridge stops being a recurring errand and becomes something you deal with a handful of times a year, even on a shared departmental machine.

How long does 9,000 pages last in a real office?

It depends on the machine's workload. A workgroup putting roughly 1,000 pages a month through its 5100 is looking at about nine months from one cartridge; a busier floor at 2,000 pages a month halves that. The rating assumes standard 5% page coverage, so ordinary text documents track close to it while dense, dark pages shorten the run. The printer's own page counter settles the question better than any estimate.

Is this a genuine Dell cartridge?

No. This is a compatible 310-5807, built by a third-party manufacturer to Dell's specification for the 5100 and 5100cn. The $48.50 shelf price against the genuine article is the whole point of the compatible route — same rated 9,000-page job, considerably less money out the door.
