Frequently Asked Questions
What toner does the Dell 1600 use?
The 1600 uses the 310-5416 standard and 310-5417 high-capacity black toner cartridges; P4210, K4671, X5015 and T5870 are alternate Dell numbers for the same two cartridges. Check the number on your installed cartridge to match the capacity you want.
Can the 1600 handle envelopes and labels?
Yes: feed envelopes and label sheets through the manual tray one at a time or in small batches, with the paper-type setting matched to the media. Labels in particular demand the right setting, since the wrong fuser temperature can melt label adhesive inside the printer, causing jams that are miserable to clean.
The 1600 prints the first page fine, then fades, what is wrong?
Fading after the first page usually means the cartridge is nearly empty: the initial pages use loose toner near the feed, then output drops off. Rock the 310-541x cartridge gently to redistribute toner for a temporary reprieve, but plan on replacing it soon.
