Color Laser 1250C
A refinement of the original 1250, the Dell 1250C keeps the same compact, single-function color laser formula for homes and small offices. Setup stays simple, color output stays sharp on text and graphics, and the footprint stays small enough to live on a side table or credenza.
Because the 1250C shares its cartridge line with the 1250 family, toner is easy to find and priced to compete. Choose compatible Dell 1250C toner cartridges for the lowest cost per page or genuine OEM for Dell-branded consistency — both ship fast from Clever Supplies, with high-yield options that cut how often you reorder.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find the right cartridge for the Dell 1250C?
Look for cartridge codes YX24V and 331-0778 when shopping for the Dell 1250C; the full list of compatible options is shown in the cartridges section of this page.
Which color cartridge is empty on my Dell 1250C?
Check the printer's status panel: the Dell 1250C shows each color's level separately, so you can tell whether you need a black, cyan, magenta or yellow cartridge (options include YX24V and 331-0778) before ordering.
Prints from the Dell 1250C have a grey background — what's wrong?
A grey wash over prints from the Dell 1250C often appears when a cartridge is nearly empty or the drum is worn. Replace the low cartridge first (YX24V, 331-0778); if the background stays grey with a fresh one, the drum is likely due.
