Color Laser Laser E310DW

The Dell E310DW is a compact monochrome laser with wireless built in — around 26 pages per minute from a machine that fits almost anywhere, made for home offices and small teams that want sharp black-and-white printing without cables or complexity. Its black toner cartridge is the 593-BBKD, stocked here as a single cartridge and in packs of two, three, five and ten. The same cartridge also serves the E515DW, which is why the listings carry both model names.
A home-office printer has a different job from a departmental one: it must disappear. The E310DW sits on a desk corner or a shelf, connects over Wi-Fi, and is simply there when a contract, a boarding pass or a school permission slip needs printing. What it asks in return is minimal — the occasional cartridge, sized to how much its owners actually print rather than to a fleet schedule.

Which cartridge should you buy?
Let your real volume decide. A single 593-BBKD is the right buy for a home office that prints in bursts — a few documents a week, then nothing for days. If the E310DW is the only printer in the house and a deadline cannot wait for a delivery, the 2 pack earns its place: one cartridge working, one waiting. Small teams sharing the machine should look at the 3 and 5 packs, and only a genuinely busy small office will work through a 10 pack before the cartridges age on the shelf. The cartridge is identical in every listing; you are choosing how often to think about toner.
Chip, toner and everyday use
The swap is the simplest in this catalog: open the front cover, lift out the old cartridge, drop the new one in, and print a test page to watch the printer read the chip and report a full gauge. Keep the spare sealed in a cool, dry spot — toner does not truly expire, but a cartridge stored badly can clump, so the original bag in a climate-controlled room beats a garage shelf every time. If pages fade before the cartridge is declared empty, a gentle side-to-side rock redistributes the toner and usually revives it.
Frequently Asked Questions
What cartridge fits the Dell E310DW?
The 593-BBKD black toner cartridge, in the single and multi-pack listings above. Before ordering, it is worth pulling the old cartridge and checking the number on its label — the code printed there is the one to match.
Can I keep a spare E310DW cartridge on the shelf?
Yes — a sealed cartridge keeps well. Store it in its bag in a climate-controlled room, away from heat and damp, and it will be ready when you need it. Toner stored carelessly can clump or leak, so the packaging stays on until installation day.
Does the E310DW use a separate drum unit?
It does. The drum is a separate part from the toner — it carries its own Dell number, 593-BBKE — and it is changed on its own, much less frequent schedule rather than with every toner swap. The listings on this page are the 593-BBKD toner cartridge itself.
Will this cartridge also fit the E515DW?
Yes. The listings here are built for the E310DW-E515DW pair, two machines that share the same cartridge — which is why both model names appear in the product titles. Order the pack size you need; the cartridge inside is the same for both printers.
More printers that use the same cartridges
The E310DW's cartridge is shared with the other compact E-series machines below — if the printer at home is one of these instead, the same toner stock applies: Dell E514DW, Dell E310dw, Dell E514dw, Dell E515DN, Dell E515DW.
