Cartridge Type

	Genuine or OEM (Original) Cartridges	Remanufactured Cartridges	Compatible Cartridges
Description	OEM stands for original equipment manufacturer, meaning the cartridge was made by the same company that made your printer. Original brand cartridges are very reliable and sometimes the only option if your printer is new to market or uncommon.	Remanufactured ink is a genuine brand cartridge that has gone through one cycle of use. After use, the cartridge is recycled, acquired by a remanufacturing facility and put through a rigorous professional refurbishing process. During the refurbishing process the cartridge is disassembled, thoroughly cleaned and tested for quality. It's then carefully refilled, tested again and brought back to life. Buying remanufactured prevents one less cartridge from ending up in a landfill.	A compatible cartridge is a brand new ink cartridge built by a manufacturer other than your printer. It's like buying the generic version of the genuine brand. Most are uniquely designed to differentiate from genuine cartridges. Despite any structural difference you may notice, the cartridge will still fit in your machine and print a full yield, just like the original brand.
Price Factors	Many printer manufacturers follow the razor-and-blades business model which may result in higher priced genuine cartridges.	Remanufactured ink is much cheaper than the original brand ink. It's far more cost effective to refurbish a previously used cartridge than create a new OEM from scratch.	Compatible ink is much cheaper than the original brand. Compatible suppliers don't have to worry about the additional costs that hinder OEMs like new printers or firmware, which lets them keep prices low.
Quality	Original cartridges work extremely well and are covered under a warranty by the printer manufacturer	High quality remanufactured ink will match the quality of the original, but not all remanufactured ink is created equal. Make sure you buy from a reputable supplier in order to get the absolute best results.	High quality compatible ink will match the quality of the original, but not all compatible ink is created equal. Make sure you buy from a reputable supplier in order to get the absolute best results.

What's the difference between ink and toner cartridges?

	Ink Cartridges	Toner Cartridges
Printer Type	Work with inkjet printers	Work with laser printers
Material	Liquid ink	Dry powder
How it works	Inkjet printers use a series of nozzles that spray tiny drops of ink directly on the print suface	Laser toner printers use static electricity and heat to bond dry toner powder to a page
Commonly used by	Casual home users, small business and photographers	Large businesses and schools

Number of Pages You Can Print	A cartridge's page yield is the estimated number of pages you can print. Page yield is based on 5% page coverage. This means that the quoted page yield is based upon printed pages where only 5% of the page has been imprinted with ink. For example, a short memo has approximately 5% coverage. If you have a cartridge that has a yield of 500 pages, it can print 500 pages of that short memo. If you are printing letters, photos or graphics, your coverage will vary greatly and your page yield will drop significantly.
Cartridge Warranty and Shelf Life	Most ink and toner cartridges include a warranty or "best by" date on their box. Remanufactured and compatible ink cartridges can last 12-18 months unopened, and toner cartridges can last up to 3 years.
Cartridge Care and Storage	Only open a cartridge when you need it. Opened cartridges will eventually dry out, especially if the protective tape or clip has been removed. If you have an open ink cartridge around and would like to try and prevent it from drying out, place it nozzle side up in a plastic airtight tub. If your cartridge came with protective tape or a clip reapply both before storing. Place a damp cloth or paper towel in the tub, next to the cartridge and keep it stored in a cool, dark place.

Compatible T106N Color Series 23 HY Ink for Dell
Q:
All of a sudden it doesn't work. The printer says not comatible.

I've tried an old empty color cartridge and it still says a problem with printhead.
I've tried scratching the carbon under the chip. Are you suppose to scratch the top ? Then I retaped it after scratching.
Any ideas ?
(I'm using this in a Dell 515w)
P.S. It was working fine for months on my first cartridge. So I tried a new one even though the old one wasn't empty.)

  Yes I've taken out the print head and cleaned multiple times. The error message now reads problem with print head. I've unplugged the unit many times but the message always comes back.
  So I googled my problem and low and behold these Dell 515W's are just plain crapping out. With no parts available.
  So it' not the cartridge, it's the printer. # Lexmark I think.#
  Buying a new printer.

  Thank you for your inquiry! Based on what you have described, it sounds like you may need to remove and re-install your print-head. Since these cartridges don't have integrated print-heads, just ink tanks, that part can be accessed inside your printer. If you need additional assistance removing your print-head you can contact Dell directly. You are also welcome to call our customer service department at (888)321-2552 if you still are having issues with this after speaking with Dell and need additional assistance.

I ordered an 8 pack for my Dell V515W all in one printer and it was delivered in short order. When my black ink cartridge ran low, I installed the new one from the 8 pack and had no problem installing or beginning to use it to start printing out my Christmas cards.
I'm very pleased at the service and item performance. I haven't used the color cartridges yet but feel very confident that they will perform equally well, and if not, I know there is a 100% money back guarantee on them. Thank you and I will be back when I need more.

Thought I was getting great value from other reviews but turns out you get less than you pay, after installing the black and color ink I was able to get one document printed out n black and with the color cartridge it printed the entire page in red which probably wasted most of the ink. I will be requesting a replcement or refund.

Comments about Compatible Ink Cartridge for Dell 330-5258:

This ink does not last very long or else dries out quickly. I have had to order ink more often with this product with the same amount of printing than with the original Dell ink cartridges.

Ink cartridges were terrible and already dried out by the time we received them. They did not work in our printer even after deep cleaning the print head. Will not purchase again.
