Laser 1710
The Dell 1710 steps the series up to 27 pages per minute while keeping the compact, budget-friendly formula: sharp 1200-dpi monochrome output, a 15,000-page monthly duty cycle, and paper capacity expandable to 800 sheets for busier stretches. It is aimed at home offices and small businesses that want workgroup-like speed without workgroup pricing.
The high-capacity toner option is the key to its low running costs — thousands of pages per cartridge instead of hundreds. Compatible versions of these cartridges deliver the same crisp text for noticeably less money.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which toner does the Dell 1710 use?
The 1710 runs on the 310-5400 standard and 310-5401 and 310-5402 higher-capacity black toner cartridges: one slot, three capacity choices. If your current cartridge's number has worn off the label, any of these three fits; pick the capacity that matches your monthly volume.
How long should a 310-5402 cartridge last in the 1710?
At the rated 5% coverage, a high-capacity 310-5402 lasts several thousand pages; for a typical small office that is a few months. Track pages per cartridge once via the printer's reports and you will be able to predict replacements instead of reacting to the low-toner light.
Why are my 1710 prints coming out crooked?
Skewed printing is a paper-feed issue, not a toner issue: make sure the tray's paper guides are snug against the stack and the paper is not curled or damp. If only the manual feed misaligns, clean its pickup roller; a worn roller grabs one side of the sheet before the other.
