write down what the version of you printer, all the numbers, letters etc. and tell it to assistents at shop, they will know what cartridge fits your printer ;)

Lexmark manufactors Dell printers however they make them where the cartridges are not interchangeable with Dell printers. The Dell ink cartridges are keyed where you cannot use them in lexmark printers.

Lexmark makes the cartridges for Dell, but even though they look the same they will not work in Dell machines.  They are wired differently so they will only be able to communicate with Dell printers. It will fit in the cradle, but you'll just get a bunch of errors.  Also, they aren't going to be much cheaper anyways.

I know I found cheap ink on ebay.  They are normally so cheap because they are refills.  Check on there.  or try www.shopping.com

If you are using HP Deskjet printer then you can view the Ink level of the cartridge in the printer properties.\n\nPlease visit the following web site and follow the instructiions to check ink levels of the cartridges.\n\nhttp://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/genericDocument?docname=bud07521&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN

Try using the > LPTx command, assuming your printers are set up correctly for DOS printing. See http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000199.htm .

i don't think you can buy true dell cartridges in store only on line from dell... i think you can get the 'equivalent' that will work, atleast thats the impresion i got when i once worked in Office max.

It is always cheaper to refill, however you cartridges have to be printing perfectly in order to get a decent result from a refill.  You will also need to run regular print head cleanings to ensure you maintain quality.\n\nThe only licensed Dell dealer is Dell.  The cartridges you get from the third party site will most likely be re-manufactured, which is a fancy word for refilled.\n\nI agree with the previous answer of for the cost of replacing the cartridges, which you will have to do eventually as you will be luck to get 2 or 3 refills out of a Dell cartridge replace the printer with one whose inks are readily available.   Try to avoid Lexmark and Dell printers in the future.

No.  Dell holds a monopoly on their cartridges.  \nMy advice buy a new printer, or look for re-manufactured dell cartridges at staples.\n\nFor the cost of replacing the cartridges you may as well go and buy a new printer.  Not lexmark or Dell.

Ok.....not sure this is going to work, but if you feel comfortable doing it....it may work.\n\nFirst......reboot the computer. Go to the start button and do the shutdown in the usual way.\n\nSee if that clears the problem.\n\n- - - if that doesn't work - - -\n\nSecond.....turn off/unplug the printer.....and reboot the computer.\n\n- - - if that doesn't work - - -\n\nGo into control panel...in whatever flavor of wndows(?) and get to the section on printers. Open it....select (highlight) it....and then click delete.\n\nThen....reboot the computer. Upon booting the computer may recognize the printer is attached and ask if you want to 'install' the driver(s) for it. Say yes and let Windows do its thing and select the appropriate driver for you.\n\nIf after doing these things, you may need to call the Philipines....errrr...I mean India.......oooops....sorry...I mean Dell....and ask them about the printer.\n\nIf you don't feel comfortable doing the above, then you may, indeed have to call <ahem> Dell.\n\n:)

It really depends on your printer, the operating system you are running, etc.  You can run through the printer support help system at http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/support/SupportIndex.jsp.  This system will guide you through the wizard by asking questions about your product, and then give you help with what you need.\n\nHope this helps.

This is a skewed paper feed issue. These kind of issues don't get resolved easily. You have mentioned that this the printer is not even an year old. Then I would say, call up DELL and they might arrange for a replacement for you.\n\nDELL tollfree number : 1-800-6249896

There are a lot of ink companies out there that sell generic for everything.  The last one I used was Printpal.
