Frequently Asked Questions
Why would an office standardise on a single cartridge across its whole printer fleet?
Because it ends the wrong-cartridge problem. This 5-pack holds five compatible Dell 331-9805 black toner cartridges, and that one part number serves the Laser B2360d, Laser B2360dn, Laser B3460dn and Laser B3465dn alike. A fleet running any mix of those models holds one toner SKU instead of a shelf of near-identical boxes, buys it in one order, and never discovers at 4 PM that the spare on the shelf belongs to the other machine down the hall. This listing is the B2360-named one, but the cartridge inside is the same 331-9805 whichever family member you run.
What does the 5-pack do to the price of each cartridge?
Bought one at a time, the 331-9805 costs $91.20. In this pack it is $382.03 for five — $76.41 per cartridge, $14.79 less per unit, and $73.97 saved against five separate single orders. Each cartridge is rated at 8,500 pages, so the pack holds 42,500 pages at about 0.90 cents per page, against roughly 1.07 cents buying singles. The step down comes purely from ordering five at once; the cartridge itself is identical.
How long does 42,500 pages actually keep a workgroup printing?
Longer than most toner orders people place. A workgroup printing 2,000 pages a month across its machines would take the better part of two years to work through five cartridges, swapping one roughly every four months. A busier group at 5,000 pages a month still gets around eight to nine months from the pack. Either way, toner stops being a monthly errand and becomes a twice-a-year line you barely think about.
How do we confirm the 331-9805 is the cartridge our B2360 takes?
Match the part number, not the model's badge. Check the cartridge you are replacing, the machine's supply list, or your last order: if it shows 331-9805, this pack is five of exactly that cartridge. The B2360 name on this listing is the model the listing was written for; the part number is the identity that matters, and it is shared across the B2360d, B2360dn, B3460dn and B3465dn.
How should five cartridges be issued across several machines?
From one shelf, against need, oldest first. Mark the arrival date on the outer box when the pack lands, keep the cartridges sealed until the moment one is fitted, and let whichever machine runs dry draw the next unit — there is no need to reserve a cartridge per machine when every machine takes the same one. A gentle side-to-side rock before fitting settles the toner for an even first run of pages.
What guarantee stands behind a pack of this size?
Every one of the five cartridges carries our 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns, individually — a problem with one unit does not put the other four in question. The full terms are on our shipping and returns page. Stock ships from our warehouses in Illinois, Pennsylvania, Georgia and California, and our support team is on hand Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST if you want the fleet logic talked through before ordering.
