Dell 330-5207
The 330-5207 family is the black toner line for Dell's 3330 and 3330dn monochrome lasers, and Dell also catalogues the headline cartridge under the alternate number U903R. It is a yield ladder in one slot: the standard-capacity 330-5210 at the bottom, the high-yield 330-5207 in the middle, and a maximum-yield build coded C233RX at the top. A MICR version coded C233R covers check printing. Every toner here images against a separate drum unit, the 330-2663, which Dell also lists under the code PK496.
The 3330 pair are compact mono lasers — the dn adds networking and duplex — aimed at a single desk or a small team that prints steadily but not enormously. With one black supply to manage, ownership is simple; the only real decision is how big a cartridge to feed it. Small offices that invoice, ship and file from one machine tend to live in the middle of the ladder, while the standard size suits a printer that mostly handles the occasional letter.

Which cartridge should you buy?
Match the rung to your monthly volume. The standard 330-5210 keeps the upfront cost lowest for light use. The high-yield 330-5207 is the balanced default for a working small office — fewer swaps and a lower cost per page. The maximum-yield C233RX build stretches intervals furthest and suits the 3330dn that prints all day. Choose the MICR C233R build only for the machine that prints checks; its magnetic toner earns its keep nowhere else. If your office runs more than one printer from this wider family, the 5-packs simplify the supply shelf.
Chip, toner and everyday use
Toner and drum report separately on these machines, so read the messages before ordering: a toner warning calls for a cartridge, while drum wear shows up as background shading or repeating marks even with toner left. When you change the drum, the toner cartridge and its chip carry over untouched — move the cartridge into the new drum and print on. Keep one spare toner on hand rather than a stack; a sealed cartridge stores well, but a small office gains nothing from a year's supply aging on the shelf.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is U903R the same cartridge as the 330-5207?
Yes. U903R is Dell's alternate part number for the same black toner cartridge; the two codes describe the identical supply in different packaging. Order either number and it fits the same 3330-series slot.
What is the difference between the 330-5207 and the 330-5210?
Capacity. The 330-5210 is the standard-yield cartridge and the 330-5207 is the high-yield version of the same design; both fit the same slot. Above both sits the maximum-yield C233RX build for the heaviest use.
Does the 3330dn take a different cartridge from the 3330?
No. Networking and duplex change the printer, not the supply: both models use this same toner family and the same separate drum unit.
How often will a small office replace this cartridge?
It depends on the rung chosen and your monthly pages. An office printing a few hundred pages a month typically gets several months from a high-yield cartridge; the maximum-yield build stretches that further. Watch the toner gauge rather than the calendar.
