Laser 2355

Not every small office needs the flagship multifunction; the Dell 2355 is the pragmatic middle — mono printing plus copying, scanning and faxing in a configuration aimed at lighter-duty teams, without the networking and duplex extras of its dn sibling. Supplies stay equally simple: one black cartridge family serves all four functions, and its higher-yield member, the 331-0611, is rated at about 10,000 pages, so even a busy desk swaps toner only a few times a year.

That single-cartridge design suits teams that produce contracts, reports and forms all day and judge a printer by whether the output looks sharp every time. There is no color shelf to manage and no second supply to stock — the buying question shrinks to how many of the one cartridge to keep in the drawer.

Toner Cartridges for 2355

Which cartridge should you buy?

Every listing above is the same high-yield cartridge family in different pack sizes, so choose by headcount and habit. A single cartridge is right for a two-person office that prints modestly; the 2- and 3-packs suit a steady small team; and the 5- and 10-pack listings exist for offices that would rather stock once and forget toner for a long stretch. Whichever size you pick, the cartridge itself — and its roughly 10,000-page rating — stays the same, and each is backed by a 1-year warranty with 1-year returns.

Chip, toner and everyday use

Swap day on the 2355 is quick: the chipped cartridge is recognized on insertion, and the only technique worth knowing is to rock a new cartridge gently a few times before fitting it, which settles the toner for even first pages. Keep the spare sealed until needed — opened toner slowly loses its edge in a warm office. When a cartridge nears its end, print density fades gradually rather than stopping mid-job, which gives you a natural window to order the next one.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which toner does the Dell 2355 use?

One black family, headed by the 331-0611 high-yield cartridge. The 2355-named and 2355-HY listings on this page are the same cartridge sold under the printer's name, so matching either the code or the model name gets you the right box.

Can the 2355 handle cardstock for things like business cards?

Within its limits, yes: feed cardstock through the multipurpose tray and set the paper type to heavy or cardstock so the machine slows down and fuses properly. Stay inside the printer's supported paper weights — overly thick stock is a jam and fuser risk.

Is there a standard-yield version I should consider instead?

The shelf for this model is built around the high-yield cartridge, and at about 10,000 pages it is the economical default for an all-in-one whose copies and faxes draw on the same supply. Lighter users simply enjoy the longer interval between changes.
