no, it is just for the models in the description. Look for the proper one for your printer! (http://www.amazon.com/Continuous-Supply-Expression-WorkForce-4Cartridge/dp/B00GUNJJK8/ref=sr_1_2?s=office-products&ie=UTF8&qid=1408902218&sr=1-2&keywords=wf+2540+ciss)

yes it does, check out the manual for this model and it explains it. overall great printer for the price. add the square trade for another 50 bucks and covered for 2 years any issues

Yes it does. You will have to feed the paper back into the printer after it prints the first sides, but it will print 2-sided. No 2-sided faxing tho.

Yes it comes with all 4 colors you see in the picture. Had a brief issue with printer not recognizing ink but got it to work out.

Yes it does, this is a great printer, I own a business and have owned many printers over the year, this is by far the best machine we have ever owned.

No, I am sorry but it only comes with white. You can buy inexpensive ribbons at any craft store.

Yes, it comes with everything you need to start printing. And, it is a toner cartridge, not ink cartridge. I'm sure you ask because a new toner cartridge is half the cost of this printer......Great printer, by the way, we ended up getting four here at work.

No, but it is an awesome printer. It exceeds my expectations so far. I'll never go back to inkjet for home office.

The machine uses an ink roller, not a ribbon. We use a Kores Kor 42 Ink Roller.

I purchased the same model. It came with every thing needed to start printing. Ink and print head were included. I did have to purchase the stand separately.

Yes, it have the ribbon cable but don't have the connector, you can use your previous connector, and we couldn't upload picture, thanks.

If you mean the ribbon cable that connects it to the Main Board then yes it does.

I have not tried that, but I am pretty sure it does not. It is a cheap printer. I will never buy a Dell printer again! My main gripe is that it does not have an envelope bypass. I am hand-writing all my envelopes as it is way too much trouble to move the cheap, plastic guides and remove the paper for every envelope. An HP would be worth the extra cost.

The ink and ribbon are in one single cartridge. When the ribbon is printed, however, only the ribbon is ejected from the printer. You can use the ribbon for bows. In fact, view video on Epson.com to see how ribbons are used for clever ideas.

yes it does, although they had less ink than the normal than the ones you would buy, but quite enough for getting started...I love this printer, only down for me is the fact that it doesn't print legal size paper....
