Frequently Asked Questions

Several of us share one 5100cn — how does that change how a set gets used up?

A shared network machine eats color unevenly. One person's slide deck drains the 310-5810 cyan, another's reports lean on the 310-5809 magenta, while the 310-5807 black quietly covers everyone's text. The ratings — 9,000 pages for the black, 8,000 each for the 310-5810, 310-5809 and 310-5808 yellow — assume steady, even use that a shared 5100cn rarely gives. Expect one color to call for replacement well ahead of the others, and do not read that as a fault; it is the fingerprint of mixed department work.

When that first color empties, do we swap the whole set?

No. Each cartridge serves its own slot and can be changed alone, so a spent 310-5808 yellow leaves the remaining life in the black, cyan and magenta untouched. Keep this set on the shelf as the reserve; the 5100cn will draw it down one slot at a time, in the order your team's work dictates.

What does toner for a shared 5100cn cost per page?

The set is $130.39 — about $32.60 per cartridge on average. That puts the black's class at roughly 0.36 cents per page over its 9,000-page rating and each color's class at roughly 0.41 cents over 8,000 pages. For a department machine, that is the number that matters for chargeback math: under half a cent of toner on a color page.

Is this set made by Dell?

It is not. These are compatible cartridges built to the 310-5807, 310-5810, 310-5809 and 310-5808 specifications for the 5100cn, made by a third-party manufacturer. What stands behind them is our cover: a 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns on every cartridge in the box.

What if a fresh cartridge prints badly in a busy office?

It does not become the office's problem. A defective or poor-printing unit is replaced or returned under the 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns — see our shipping and returns page for the terms. Support answers Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST, which covers the hours a department machine actually works.

How quickly can a set reach a shared office?

Orders leave from the closest of our Illinois, Pennsylvania, Georgia and California warehouses, keeping ground time short for most US offices. The broader compatible range for this family is on our Dell toner page if you are stocking more than one machine type.
