Frequently Asked Questions
Why is this set sold under three part numbers instead of a printer name?
Because the numbers are the precise identity. This set is built from the 593-BBJU cyan, the 593-BBJV magenta and the 593-BBJW yellow — the three color supply codes the Dell E525W family asks for by slot. A printer name covers a whole family of machines and can drift across model years; a part number cannot. When your reorder matches these three codes, you are buying the same color cartridges the machine itself would list, with no guessing between near-identical model names.
Which code belongs to which color?
The mapping is fixed: 593-BBJU is the cyan, 593-BBJV is the magenta and 593-BBJW is the yellow, each rated at 1,400 pages. The color is in the number, not in a description you have to interpret, so a shelf check is simple — read the code on the box and you know which slot it feeds. It also makes a single-slot reorder later a one-code job.
There is no black cartridge in this box. Why not?
Deliberately. This is a colors-only set: cyan, magenta and yellow, one of each, and nothing else. The E525W's black cartridge is a separate supply with its own code and its own, longer cycle, so it is sold separately rather than bundled here. If your black still has life in it, this set lets you refresh the three colors without paying for a black you do not need yet — just know before you order that no black cartridge will arrive in this box.
What does each cartridge in the set work out to?
The set is $49.59 for three cartridges, an average of $16.53 per cartridge. With each of the 593-BBJU, 593-BBJV and 593-BBJW cartridges rated at 1,400 pages, the color class runs at roughly 1.18 cents per page. That is the honest arithmetic of a small color machine: the colors are the shorter-cycle supplies, and buying them as a matched trio keeps the per-cartridge price below picking them up one at a time.
Are these Dell-manufactured cartridges?
No. These are compatible cartridges built to the 593-BBJU, 593-BBJV and 593-BBJW specifications by a third-party manufacturer, not cartridges made by Dell. What makes them the right supplies is the specification match, and what protects the purchase is our own cover: a 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns on all three cartridges in the set.
What if one cartridge in the set is faulty, and where does it ship from?
You are not stuck with it. The warranty and returns cover applies cartridge by cartridge, so a defective 593-BBJV, say, is dealt with on its own while the other two stay in service; the details live on our shipping and returns page, and support answers Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST. Orders leave from whichever of our four US warehouses — Illinois, Pennsylvania, Georgia or California — is nearest to you, and the wider compatible range for this machine is collected on our Dell toner page.
About This 593-BBJU Three-Color Set

Inside are the 593-BBJU cyan, the 593-BBJV magenta and the 593-BBJW yellow, each rated at 1,400 pages — one full round of color cartridges for Dell's E525W color laser family, with no black cartridge included, priced at $49.59, an average of $16.53 per cartridge. It ships from our Illinois, Pennsylvania, Georgia or California warehouse and carries a 1-year warranty with 1-year free returns.
