Use it every day to print letters, spreadsheets, reports with pictures, or even print photos. Product has never failed, become faded or inconsistent. I don't have to wait for Dell to deliver since it's now readily available at Staples. That is great and easy!

If you like to refill you cartridges, then you will probably want to avoid Dell printer cartridges. Dell installs a chip in their cartridges which arbitrarily stops them from printing. If you refill the cartridge it will quit working after a predeterminer time, even though there is still ink in it. It gives you a warning, then it starts to use the color cartridge to print in black and white. BTW: I avoid the color drain by taking out the color cartridge after I have refilled the black one. This also means I have to go through an extra step when I print, since there is a warning that the color cartridge is missing. Unless Dell fixes this, I will never buy another Dell printer when this one dies.

    The reason I purchase the Dell ink cartridges from staples because they supply it and I don't have to go on-line like I used to. I hope they do not ever drop this line of Dell inks from the store.

              you might try looking at your print settings - most printers in their copy menu allow you to change and print "black copies" only

              A:

              i'm not sure about your printer, but for mine (dell 946), sometimes when the color cartridge is empty, i just leave it in and only buy the black ink cartridge. even when i buy the color cartridge, i sometimes just use black ink by clicking on "properties" in the print box and select "black and white only"

            • VERIFIED BUYER

              A:

              Hello, I have a 924, I assume your printer will work similarly, but it may not. Here's what I suggest: when you click print and the print window opens, click the Properties button (top right in my program). Check the box that says "Print in Black and white." From now on you will not use the color, unless you uncheck the box. You can also remove the color cartridge, but then every time you print you get a warning that the cartridge is missing, and you have to click "Continue" to print. If the color cartridge runs out of ink (or the Dell chip tells it to quit), however, my printer stops printing. I hope this is helpful.
