Frequently Asked Questions

Why is this cyan cartridge sold under the number 310-9060?

Because that number is how Dell identifies the cyan supply for the 1320 series, and ordering by number is the surest way to get the right cartridge. If your reorder note or the label on your spent cartridge says 310-9060, this listing is that cartridge: a cyan toner rated at 2,000 pages for the Dell 1320. Color names alone can mislead; the supply number cannot.

What does one page of cyan cost here?

Straight arithmetic: $23.74 across 2,000 rated pages is about 1.19 cents per page for the cyan position. Honestly stated, that is not a low per-page cost — small cartridges for compact printers never are. What the 310-9060 offers is the correct, printer-matched cyan supply at a modest one-time price of $23.74, which suits the light-to-moderate color use the 1320 was built for.

How long does a 2,000-page cyan cartridge last in a 1320?

For a small office printing a few hundred color pages a month, expect several months from one 310-9060. The 2,000-page rating assumes standard coverage; pages with full-color photos or dense graphics use cyan far faster, while mostly-black documents with a color letterhead barely touch it. Cyan often outlasts expectations in text-heavy offices because it is only drawn on when color appears.

Our prints look cold and the blues have gone strange. Cyan?

That is the classic signature of a fading cyan cartridge. Cyan builds every blue, green and sky tone, so when it runs low, prints drift warm and reddish while black text stays perfectly sharp — which is why people often blame the printer instead of the supply. A solid cyan test page tells the story: pale or streaky output means the 310-9060 is nearly spent.

Can I change only the cyan cartridge?

Yes — the Dell 1320 takes a separate cartridge for each color, and they empty at different rates. Replace the faded 310-9060 cyan on its own and leave the remaining colors installed until each one fades in turn. It is the normal way to run this printer and avoids throwing away toner that still has life in it.

What warranty and returns cover this cartridge?

Like every compatible cartridge we sell, the 310-9060 carries a 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns; the details live on our shipping & returns page. Orders ship from our warehouses in IL, PA, GA and CA, and our support team is on hand Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST.

How should I store a spare cyan cartridge for a 1320?

Leave it sealed in its bag, lying flat, in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, radiators and damp. Toner keeps well over long storage handled that way, and a spare 310-9060 may wait months behind the installed cartridge in a light-use office. What ages a spare is a broken seal, heat and humidity; protect it from those and it will print exactly as expected when the current cyan finally fades.

Why does one photo-heavy month finish the cyan so much sooner than a normal month?

Coverage. The 2,000-page rating assumes standard test coverage, but a full-color photograph can cover most of the page with toner, and cyan is a major component of skies, water and foliage. A run of photo documents or dense color graphics can draw several times the cyan per page that a letterhead-and-text month does. The cartridge is not faulty — the pages simply asked more of it, and the rating is a measuring stick, not a ration.

What should I do with the empty 310-9060 once the new one is fitted?

Hold onto it until the replacement has printed a few days of normal color work cleanly. The spent unit's label is your reorder reference — 310-9060, copied from the cartridge rather than remembered — and the old unit documents what was installed if a color complaint surfaces later. After that, recycle it or dispose of it under your local rules for toner cartridges instead of general waste, and never refill a spent cartridge.

Do double-sided pages use up the rated yield faster?

Per sheet, yes: each side of the paper counts as one page, so a duplex sheet spends two of the 2,000 rated pages. The figure for the 310-9060 measures printed impressions, and a 1320 that runs its color work double-sided will reach the changeover after roughly half the sheets a single-sided user would. Both users received the full rated count of printed pages — the duplex user just received them two to a sheet.
