Frequently Asked Questions

What does this cartridge cost per printed page?

The 106R01530 is rated at 11,000 pages and this single cartridge is $69.02, which works out to roughly 0.63 cents per page at the standard 5% coverage rating. That per-page figure is the most useful way to compare cartridges, because sticker prices alone hide how much printing you actually get. Dense pages will cost a little more in practice and light text a little less, but the rating basis is identical across brands.

Which cartridge number does the WorkCentre 3550 take?

It takes the 106R01530 — that is the part number stamped on the cartridge itself, and it is the number to check against the label of the cartridge you remove. This page is the compatible version of that cartridge, sold under the printer's name because many buyers search by model first. If the number on your old cartridge reads 106R01530, you are looking at the right replacement.

Does this cartridge fit other WorkCentre models too?

Yes. The same 106R01530 serves the WorkCentre 3550, WorkCentre 3550X, WorkCentre 3550XM and WorkCentre 3550YX. The whole platform was built around one cartridge, which keeps stocking simple for offices running more than one variant.

How do I know when the cartridge is really finished?

The reliable sign is print that has turned pale evenly across the whole page. Before you conclude it is empty, take the cartridge out and rock it gently side to side — that redistributes the last of the toner and often restores even print for a while longer. When rocking no longer helps and output stays uniformly faint, the cartridge is done.

Is one cartridge enough, or should I keep a spare?

One cartridge covers 11,000 rated pages, which for a modest office is months of printing. A spare only becomes important when an empty cartridge would stop work — a shared machine, a payroll deadline, end-of-month invoicing. If downtime would hurt, keeping one sealed spare on the shelf is cheap insurance; if not, ordering as needed is fine.

What warranty and returns come with it?

A 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns, so a compatible cartridge is not a gamble. The terms are on our shipping and returns page, and you can talk to support Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST.
