Review on Xerox Phaser 6510/DNI Color Printer - Ready for Amazon Dash Replenishment and Improved SEO by Adrian Retana

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Recommended for printers

So far so good with my new 6510. Four stars because the printer still uses the 80's technology LCD/button interface. You really only need to use this to set up WiFi (never if you're connecting to a wired network). Once connected, use a browser and the printer's web interface. Almost anything can be done there. The installed toner cartridges correspond to the typical capacity of a new printer. They cost 1500 pages for black and 1000 for 3 colors. I don't print tons so they last a while anyway. Warning: Xerox replacement cartridges are expensive. More $$$ than the printer itself, which needs to be replaced with a standard capacity kit. There are cheaper "compatible" cartridges out there, but there are no reports of results with them and with this printer yet. However, even at Xerox prices, the toner is about 50% cheaper per page than the HP inkjet I'm replacing. Given that ink cartridges often fail and dry out before the end of their life, I expect even more cost savings with this cartridge in the long run. In general I am satisfied with the purchase. Great printer. The delivery was a day late, tracking was completely broken and UPS delivered it upside down (crate clearly marked to keep it upright). Atypical delivery of Revain Prime.

Pros
