Frequently Asked Questions

How do we put this set on a purchase order as a single line?

List the four part numbers on one line: 593-BBBU (black), 593-BBBT (cyan), 593-BBBS (magenta), 593-BBBR (yellow) — one set, one price of $70.35. That is how this family is bought in most offices, because the numbers are what the C2665dnf itself specifies. When the invoice comes back for matching, the four numbers on it should be exactly these; if they are, the PO, the order and the machine are all talking about the same cartridges.

This is the "Premium Quality" listing and it costs the same $70.35 as the standard set. Is there a difference we should budget for?

There is no difference to budget for. Both listings are the same set — 593-BBBU rated at 6,000 pages, 593-BBBT, 593-BBBS and 593-BBBR rated at 4,000 pages each — at the same $70.35, with the same 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns standing behind them. "Premium Quality" is the listing's wording, not a specification we can evidence, so we do not price it as one. Purchasing can treat the two listings as one product with one set of figures.

What should our reorder point be — the black or the colors?

The colors. The 593-BBBT, 593-BBBS and 593-BBBR are each rated at 4,000 pages; the 593-BBBU black is rated at 6,000, a full 2,000 pages further. On the C2665dnf the color slots will reach their end first, so the trigger for the next set order is the first color running low — not the black, which will usually still hold useful life at that point. The black from this set carries over into the next color cycle; nothing forces it out early.

What does the set work out to per cartridge and per page?

$70.35 across four cartridges is about $17.59 per cartridge. Against the ratings, the black's 6,000 pages come to roughly 0.29 cents per page and each color's 4,000 pages to roughly 0.44 cents per page. For a budget line, the useful summary is that one $70.35 set covers a full color cycle of the machine plus a black rated to run half again as long as any single color.

Are these Dell-manufactured cartridges?

No — they are compatible cartridges built to the 593-BBBU, 593-BBBT, 593-BBBS and 593-BBBR specifications. For procurement purposes the cover is contractual rather than branded: every cartridge carries our 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns, with the terms on our shipping and returns page. A cartridge that underperforms is replaced or returned under that cover.

Where will the order ship from, and who supports it?

From whichever of our four US warehouses — Illinois, Pennsylvania, Georgia or California — is nearest to you. Support runs Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST. The wider compatible range for this printer family is collected on our Dell toner page.

When the set arrives, should all four cartridges be fitted at the same time?

There is no need to. Fit only the slot the C2665dnf is actually asking for and leave the remaining cartridges sealed inside the carton. The set works as shelf stock that is consumed one slot at a time — the 593-BBBU black in particular will often wait, since its 6,000-page rating outlasts each color's 4,000. Unopened cartridges lose nothing by waiting.

The black carries over into the next color cycle — how do we track how much life it has left?

Combine two readings: the machine's supply level for the black slot, and your own note of the page counter from the day the 593-BBBU went in. Against its 6,000-page rating, that tells you roughly how far through its run the cartridge is, so the black's end does not arrive as a surprise in the middle of the following color cycle.

Our color output is heavier than a typical office's — how should that change our ordering rhythm?

Expect the color cycle to close faster than the ratings imply. The 4,000-page figures for the 593-BBBT, 593-BBBS and 593-BBBR assume standard coverage; departments printing dense charts, covers and graphics will call for colors sooner, while the black's 6,000 pages stretch further on text. Budget for more than one set's worth of colors across a single black's lifetime.

Where should the unopened remainder of the set wait between changes?

In its carton, sealed, flat and away from heat and direct sunlight — a supply cupboard rather than on top of the printer, where warmth collects. Write the arrival date on the box so the set's age is visible at a glance. Kept that way, the last 593-BBBR fitted from the carton performs to the same rating as the first.
