If the printer says I need more black ink, what product should I buy?

This printer is compatible with Dell B116x series 1,500 pages Standard Yield Black Toner Cartridge

Depends on your use - that's obvious, I know. We have two separate computers using the printer and tend to go through the black ink very quickly.

My cartridges have not run out yet, but I'd bet that if you specify Auto/Color, then it would not work because there is no color available. If you specify (from whatever machine you're printing from) that you want Black, then it should work fine. That's how other printers have worked for me.

Just a usual USB cable with the regular plug on one end and the small plug on the other - but most importantly, you should save yourself the money and find another printer that doesn't cut out on you when there is still ink in the cartridge ;).

It comes with the black 507A, which is good for about 5500-6000 pages. (All the cartridges are this size, which is a lot more than the 1200 pages you get with introductory cartridges on other printers.) The 507X contains twice as much ink, but is an after-market purchase.

Hello, Madam: Yes, you can order just the black tube of ink. Make sure you order the InkTec black refill kit for your particular printer. Thank you.

The printer comes with a coloured ink cartridge, but it doesn't last for long. The black was the first to run, so a new cartridge had to be bought.

Not sure what the question is, if it is ink compatibility then you need to use the one recommend by manufacturer .

You get the sample versions of ink so you could use it right away. I would purchase the #564 multi pack and an addition extra large black. The ink is relatively inexpensive.

you need to have some ink in all the cartridges- just about all printers nowadays work that way. any empty cartridge will stop the printer(not sure if it can be empty but in the slot, but i know pulling the empty cartridge will keep the printer from printing.if you only use black the other cartridges will last a LONG time with this printer.

Yes, this is part of the Canon ink ripoff. You need both black cartridges, and only one is in the four-pack. But I take my time replacing ink when the printer says its low. It will go on much further. The ink cartridges are no longer transparent to prevent you from looking at the real level. But the product is good--both printer and ink.

You need to buy a black or color cartridge for it. You also need to buy badges (PVC cards). You also need to invest in the software program which is about 80 dollars. Unless you are really smart and use another program to write to the printer

I am experiencing the exact same problem. I bought this printer in 2012 and after a year, the black ink cartridges, no matter how often I changed them, would get sketchy and quit printing in black after about eight pages. VERY disappointing!
