Dell (593-BBBU, 593-BBBT, 593-BBBS, 593-BBBR)
Dell sells the toner for its C2660 and C2665 color laser family under kit numbers, and this page stocks the high-yield tier of that family: black 593-BBBU, cyan 593-BBBT, magenta 593-BBBS and yellow 593-BBBR. The family spans two capacities — black cartridges in 3,000 and 6,000-page versions, colors in 1,200 and 4,000-page versions — and the listings below are the larger ones: a 6,000-page black and 4,000-page colors. One kit family covers the C2660, C2660dn, C2665 and C2665dnf, printers and multifunctions alike.
That spread of models is the point of the family. An office can run a C2660dn on one desk and a C2665dnf multifunction down the hall and feed both from the same short list of kit numbers, instead of tracking separate supplies for every device.

Which cartridge should you buy?
Match the kit number to the color your printer reports as low, and take the high-yield version — the only tier listed here — whenever the machine prints more than a few pages a day. The 593-BBBU black at 6,000 pages will outlast two of the standard black cartridges, and the 4,000-page colors do the same against their 1,200-page counterparts. If two or more colors are winding down together, the high-yield four-color set replaces the whole family in one order; otherwise a single kit, swapped for the single empty slot, is the economical move.
Chip, toner and everyday use
When the printer names a low color, trust the kit number over memory: pull the depleted cartridge, read its label, and match the replacement number for number before it goes in. A new cartridge that prints lightly on its first pages usually just needs its toner settled — take it out, rock it gently end to end a few times, and reinstall. Keep your next kit sealed in its box in a cool, dry spot; heat and humidity are harder on stored toner than time is.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do the 593-BBBU, 593-BBBT, 593-BBBS and 593-BBBR numbers mean?
They are Dell's kit numbers for this family's four cartridges: 593-BBBU is black, 593-BBBT is cyan, 593-BBBS is magenta and 593-BBBR is yellow. Each number corresponds to one color's cartridge, and the same numbers appear in the printer's own manual.
Which capacity tier does this page sell?
The high-yield tier: a black cartridge rated at 6,000 pages and colors at 4,000 pages, rather than the family's smaller 3,000-page black and 1,200-page colors. Both tiers fit the same slots; the high-yield cartridges simply carry more toner.
Does the same kit family really cover the C2660dn and the C2665dnf?
Yes — the C2660, C2660dn, C2665 and C2665dnf all draw from this one set of kit numbers. A multifunction scans and copies with the same four toner cartridges its printer-only siblings use.
