Frequently Asked Questions
Why is this cartridge sold under the number 331-9797 instead of a printer name?
Because 331-9797 is how Dell's own parts system identifies this cartridge, and purchasing departments reorder by that number long after the printer's marketing name is forgotten. This listing is the number-first version: one black cartridge rated at up to 6,000 pages, priced at $106.93. If your reorder sheet, last invoice or storeroom label says 331-9797, this is the item those records point to.
What does $106.93 work out to across 6,000 rated pages?
Roughly 1.78 cents of toner per page — and we will not dress that up as bargain-basement printing. This is a department-class cartridge for the B5460 and B5465 machines, and its per-page figure sits where that class sits. What the rating buys is capacity: 6,000 pages between swaps on a printer a whole team leans on, instead of a small cartridge that runs dry mid-week.
How long does one of these last in a working department?
It depends entirely on the machine's monthly count. At 1,000 pages a month expect about six months from one cartridge; at 2,000 a month, roughly three; a hard-worked unit at 3,000 a month finishes one in about two. Those are translations of the 6,000-page rating at ordinary office coverage — pages heavy with graphics and solid fills consume toner faster than the standard the rating is measured against.
Is this a genuine Dell cartridge?
No. It is a compatible 331-9797, built by a third-party manufacturer to the same specification rather than by Dell. Judge it on what is stated here: the 6,000-page rating, the $106.93 price and the warranty described below. The genuine article differs in the name on the box and the price that name carries.
Prints have started coming out pale near the end of the cartridge — is it done?
Very likely close. On a cartridge of this capacity the fade creeps in gradually, so output can look washed out for days before anything actually stops. Rocking the cartridge gently side to side can spread the remaining toner and carry you a little further, but treat the first pale pages as your reorder signal rather than waiting for blank sheets on a shared machine.
What cover do we have if one fails early?
Each cartridge carries a 1-year warranty with 1-year free returns, and our support team is available Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST. The complete terms live on our shipping & returns page.
