Frequently Asked Questions

What does one printed page actually cost with the 310-9062?

Let's do the math openly: this cartridge costs $23.74 and is rated at 2,000 pages, which works out to roughly 1.19 cents per page for the yellow channel. That is not the cheapest per-page figure in the Dell range, and we won't pretend otherwise — the 1320 is a compact color laser with small cartridges, and small cartridges always carry a higher per-page cost than big production units. What you are paying for here is a correct-fit yellow cartridge for an older machine, without having to hunt down new-old-stock OEM boxes.

How long will 2,000 pages of yellow last in a home office?

It depends entirely on how much color you print. At roughly 100 color pages a month — the odd photo document, a school project, a presentation — 2,000 pages can stretch close to 20 months. At 50 color pages a week it is more like 10 months. Yellow also gets consumed quietly in the background of almost every color page, since most images and graphics mix yellow into skin tones, greens and warm colors, so it can run down even when you rarely print anything that looks yellow.

Our prints have started looking blue-purple. Is that the yellow running out?

Very often, yes. When yellow fades, the colors that depend on it fall apart first: greens turn teal or blue, warm tones go cold, and skin tones take on a purple cast — while black text stays perfectly sharp, because the black cartridge is a separate unit. If your text looks fine but your colors have gone cold and blue-ish, the 310-9062 yellow is the first suspect, well before anything mechanical.

Is the 310-9062 a genuine Dell cartridge?

No — it is a compatible cartridge built to the 310-9062 specification, not a Dell-branded OEM unit, and the listing says so plainly. It is made to fit and work in the Dell 1320 in place of the original yellow cartridge. Every one we sell is covered by a 1-year warranty, so if a cartridge fails or prints poorly within that year, you are not stuck with it.

Do I have to replace the other colors at the same time?

No. Each color in the 1320 is its own cartridge — black (310-9058), cyan (310-9060), magenta (310-9064) and this yellow (310-9062) — and each one is replaced only when it runs out. Swap the yellow, keep printing with the others, and replace each remaining color as its own turn comes.

What if the cartridge arrives damaged or prints badly?

You are covered two ways: a 1-year warranty on the cartridge itself, and 1-year free returns under our shipping & returns policy. Orders ship from our warehouses in IL, PA, GA and CA, and if you want help diagnosing a print problem before you reorder, our support team is available Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST.

About This 310-9062 Yellow Cartridge

The Dell 310-9062 is the yellow cartridge for the Dell 1320 color laser: a 2,000-page unit at $23.74, which is about 1.19 cents per page — a figure we state plainly rather than dress up, because compact printers like the 1320 simply run smaller, pricier-per-page cartridges. This compatible version gives 1320 owners a way to keep a perfectly good older machine in service with a cartridge that is warranted for a full year and returnable free for a full year. If your color prints have gone cold, blue or purple while your text stays crisp, this is very likely the cartridge your printer is asking for.
