Q: Who buys Dell accessories direct from Dell? A: Probably only corporate customers and people with too much money to spare. There are much better deals to be had elsewhere online. A quick Google turned up plenty of places offering this around 120 pounds.

Good find kasgordon, plus the drum life is 200,000 according to the spec (see tab above) not 20,000 as per the above summary

Good find kasgordon, plus the drum life is 200,000 according to the spec (see tab above) not 20,000 as per the above summary. jtdirect also do the cartridges for 14 each. Changes the whole economics of it

Drum Life
Just checked with the dell brochure which shows drum life is 24,000 not 200,000
