One of the black ink cartridges made by Dell is the T5480. Like other common ink cartridges with a print head, there are a number of options available for people who are tired of buying a brand new cartridge all the time. Here are your options:

Dell OEM T5480 - right now this is the only cartridge that we sell to replace the T5480. This is the one that comes installed in your printer and the one that you would buy directly from Dell. This is the one that their software alerts you to buy from their online store when your printer is getting low on ink.

Refill kits - available for almost all Dell inkjet cartridges, this is the way to save the most money on ink. For the T5480, we offer a refill kit that is $12.99 and gives you about two refills, which works out to be about $6.50 per cartridge refill. The kits come with simple instructions and the whole process should only take you a few minutes.

Refilling service - if you don’t want to mess around with refilling, you can pay someone to do it for you. The service we offer is Renew and it works like this: you purchase the service, you then receive a mailer and then send away your empty cartridge. About a week or so later, you receive a refilled cartridge. This option works for people who are interested in recycling or conserving, but don’t have the time.
