Frequently Asked Questions

Only 1,000 pages — how far does a cartridge this size really go?

Further than the number first suggests in the offices these printers serve. The 106R01627 is the cyan supply for a compact, entry-level color platform, and cyan is only one ingredient in a color page — most everyday printing leans heavily on black, while cyan appears in logos, headings, charts and the occasional photograph. At light to moderate color use, 1,000 rated pages can stretch across months of work; a desk that prints color all day, every day, will work through it sooner, and that honest trade-off is built into a machine of this class.

Why are our blues turning dull and our greens looking muddy?

Look to cyan first. Blue is printed largely from cyan, and green is cyan laid down with yellow, so a cyan cartridge nearing empty quietly drains both colors at once: skies wash out toward gray, a navy logo loses its depth and leafy greens flatten into olive. Black text on the same page can still look perfectly crisp, which is why the problem often gets blamed on the paper or the file before anyone checks the cyan level.

What does the running cost look like on a small cartridge like this?

At $31.99 for a rating of 1,000 pages, this cartridge works out to about 3.2 cents per page at the standard 5% coverage behind yield ratings. That per-page figure runs higher than on big high-capacity machines, and that is the plain arithmetic of a small cartridge — what you get in return is a low outlay each time you replace it, which suits a small office that prints color in bursts rather than in volume. Full-bleed photos and dense color pages use far more than 5% coverage, so real totals fall below the rating on image-heavy work.

Is it worth keeping a spare cyan on the shelf?

For this platform, yes — it is one of the more sensible spares to hold. A compact cartridge turns over faster than a high-capacity one, the replacement cost is modest, and the warning tends to surface in the middle of a job you actually need, like a proposal with color charts in it. Store the spare upright, sealed in its packaging and away from heat and direct light, and rotate it into the printer when the fitted one fades so the shelf stock stays fresh.

Which printers take this cyan cartridge?

The Phaser 6000, Phaser 6010 and Phaser 6010N printers, along with the WorkCentre 6015, WorkCentre 6015V/B and WorkCentre 6015V/N multifunction models.

What cover and delivery terms come with it?

Every cartridge is backed by a 1-year warranty, and you have a full year of free returns as well; the complete terms are on our shipping and returns page. Orders are dispatched from warehouses in IL, PA, GA and CA, and our support team is available Monday to Friday, 9 AM–5 PM CST if anything about the fit or the output looks wrong.
