Frequently Asked Questions

What cartridge does the WorkCentre 3550TM use?

The 106R01530 — one cartridge number covers the entire 3550 platform, and the 3550TM is no exception. This listing is the compatible version of that cartridge, presented under the printer's name. Before ordering, the surest check is the label on the cartridge currently in your machine: if it reads 106R01530, this is the replacement, in black, rated at 11,000 pages.

What will I pay per page with this single cartridge?

About 0.63 cents per page, from $69.02 divided across the 11,000-page rated yield at standard 5% coverage. That is the single-cartridge rate for the 106R01530; the same cartridge bought in the five-pack works out nearer 0.49 cents per page, which is worth knowing if the machine prints every day.

How many months might one cartridge cover?

Some examples: about 22 months at 500 pages a month, 11 months at 1,000 pages a month, and just under four months at 3,000 pages a month. The rating assumes average text coverage, so a forms-heavy workload will shorten those spans and a light one will stretch them.

Does it fit the other models in the family?

Yes — the 106R01530 also fits the WorkCentre 3550, WorkCentre 3550X, WorkCentre 3550XM and WorkCentre 3550YX. One cartridge design for the whole range means one spare covers any of them.

My printouts are getting lighter week by week. Is the cartridge nearly out?

That gradual fade is the typical way a toner cartridge finishes — output lightens as the fill runs low rather than cutting off suddenly. A gentle side-to-side rock of the cartridge can redistribute the remaining toner and restore density for a while. Once the rocking stops making a difference, it is time for the new cartridge.

What cover do I get?

A 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns come with the cartridge, so trying a compatible unit carries no financial risk. The details live on our shipping and returns page, and support is available Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST.
