Color Laser 1755NF

The Dell 1755NF is a color laser multifunction built for document-heavy offices — print, copy, scan and fax in one networked machine that a small team shares over Ethernet. It drinks from four high-yield cartridges, and this page stocks the family under both of Dell's numberings: black is 810WH or 331-0778, cyan is C5GC3 or 331-0777, magenta is XMX5D or 331-0780, and yellow is WM2JC or 331-0779. Whichever numbering is printed on the cartridge you remove, its replacement is in the table below.

A multifunction like this lives on paperwork: contracts moving to signature, multi-page scans, fax confirmations, the daily paper traffic of an office that runs on documents. That workload spreads across all four cartridges rather than resting on black alone, so supply planning for the 1755NF means watching four levels instead of one — and because the machine is shared, running dry mid-job inconveniences the whole team, not one desk. High-yield cartridges across the board keep the per-page cost of that shared workload down and stretch the gap between orders.

Toner Cartridges for 1755NF

Which cartridge should you buy?

Every cartridge sold for this printer is already a high-yield size, so the real choice is how you bundle them. If only one color is low, buy that single — the four cartridges live independent lives and there is no prize for replacing a color that still has pages in it. Black almost always empties first on a document machine, and the 2, 3 and 5-packs of black exist for exactly that pattern: they cut the per-cartridge cost and park spares in the supply cabinet. When two or more colors are nearing empty together, a 4-color set refreshes the whole machine in one order, and the larger combination sets suit offices that would rather stock deep once than reorder monthly. Match the code on the cartridge you pulled out — either numbering works, since both describe these same cartridges.

Chip, toner and everyday use

The 1755NF reads a chip on each cartridge to track its level, and the reading only registers when the replacement is seated fully — push until the cartridge settles into its slot, then close the cover and let the machine calibrate. A cartridge that prints lightly before it reads empty usually just has settled toner: take it out, rock it slowly side to side a few times, and reinstall it to spread what remains. Keep spare cartridges sealed in a cool, dry cabinet rather than on top of the warm machine, and rotate stock so the oldest box is used first. Every compatible cartridge here carries a 1-year warranty with 1-year returns.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which cartridges does the Dell 1755NF use?

Four high-yield cartridges: black 810WH (also numbered 331-0778), cyan C5GC3 (331-0777), magenta XMX5D (331-0780) and yellow WM2JC (331-0779). The two numberings are interchangeable — order by whichever code is printed on your old cartridge.

Do I need a separate print server to share the 1755NF?

No. The machine connects to the network itself through its Ethernet port, so every computer on the office network can print, scan and fax through it without a dedicated server PC.

Why does paper keep jamming in my 1755NF?

The usual causes are damp or curled paper, a tray filled past its maximum line, or tired pickup rollers. Fan the stack before loading, keep the guides snug against the paper, and most jams stop; persistent jams on fresh, dry paper point to the rollers.

Can I replace just one color at a time?

Yes. Each of the four cartridges is independent, so replace only the color the printer flags as empty and leave the others until their turn comes.
