Laser B1165NFW

The Dell B1165NFW packs print, copy, scan and fax into a compact wireless mono laser MFP — the home-office all-in-one for people who still fax and want cable-free placement anywhere in the house or small office. Four functions, one supply: everything it produces comes from the 331-7335 black cartridge family, listed below by code and under the B1165NFW model name.
An all-in-one quietly prints more than its owner expects. Copies, fax confirmations, scanned-to-print forms — the pages accumulate across all four functions, and they all draw on the same cartridge. Judging this printer's toner appetite by print jobs alone underestimates it, which is worth remembering when choosing between a single cartridge and a pack.

Which cartridge should you buy?
Start from total pages, not print jobs. A home office that mostly prints can run happily on a single 331-7335 and reorder when the level warning appears. If the machine also handles regular copying and fax traffic, the 3-pack or the B1165NFW 5-pack is the economical habit: lower cost per cartridge, and a spare already in the drawer when the current one fades. The premium-quality 5-pack serves buyers who want the build closest to original Dell. Compatible cartridges here are covered by a 1-year warranty with 1-year returns.
Chip, toner and everyday use
The cartridge chip lets the B1165NFW identify the cartridge and track its level across printing, copying and fax output alike. When prints lighten, remove the cartridge and rock it gently side to side; redistributing the toner restores even density for the pages that remain. Keep spares sealed, flat and away from heat sources. Published yields assume roughly 5% page coverage, so a month of copying dense documents will use noticeably more toner than the same count of short emails printed out.
