No it won't fit your machine. The Z705 takes the Lexmark #55 black ink cartridge. Just because a cartridge looks and maybe is the same size as another does not mean it will work in another printer. Ink cartridges have a specific connectors and chips that will only work in certain printers. Also the type of ink and nozzle size are also designed specifically for certain printers.
I suggest looking around online and buy the Lexmark #55 black ink cartridge.
I have only tried putting a Lexmark cartridge into a dell series 5 printer but it does not work. The electronics do not match and the printer rejected it.
The Lexmark 4110 printer typically uses the Lexmark 70 (black) and Lexmark 20 (color) ink cartridges. The Lexmark 70 cartridge is a high-yield black ink cartridge that is compatible with various Lexmark printers, including the Lexmark 4110. The Lexmark 20 cartridge is a standard-yield color ink cartridge that is also compatible with the Lexmark 4110 printer. It is important to ensure you are using the correct cartridges to maintain optimal print quality and compatibility with your Lexmark 4110 printer.
can the mfc-255cw printer, print in black only with just a black cartridge?
The page yield of Lexmark cartridges fluctuates depending on the type of Lexmark cartridge you have. If you have a high yield Lexmark cartridge, you can expect to print up to 475 pages per cartridge.
no it is designed so it will not print without color cartridge having ink in it
Sadly No. Lexmark make each cartridge model different so that no universal chip resetter will work. They also make some with chips that are intended to be replaced by Lexmark when they refill them and sell them as new once again.
If your printer cartridge won't print, you might need to replace the cartridge. You can also preform a print head alignment, if the ink hasn't been depleted yet.
maybe you didn't install it properly.
The Lexmark print head 14N1492 is specifically designed for certain Lexmark printers and is not compatible with Dell printers, including the V715w. Dell printers typically require their own specific cartridges and print heads. Therefore, using a Lexmark print head in a Dell printer is not advisable and will likely not work. Always check the printer's manual or manufacturer's recommendations for compatible parts.
Well I am printing scrapbook pages of the best quality setting on gloss and am getting about 12 to 13 pages a cartridge. This is full color print. With paper scrapbookpages are costing about $2.37 each. I can get about 25 pages with better quality setting on a Lexmark printer.
The answer seems to be "no" - I bought the Lexmark version of this cartridge, and it doesn't work - the chip on it causes the printer to read "invalid cartridge". Some older versions used an additional slot to differentiate between Dell and Lexmark, but they've now gone down the hardware route and there doesn't seem to be a way around it. That means you have to order from Dell, and I need to print today. $50 from Office Depot down the drain and no other option. I'm selling this POS printer and buying one from a company that doesn't so blatantly screw its customers.
This will vary from printer to printer. For more detailed instructions we would need to know which printer you use. Most colour printers have a black cartridge and a number of colour cartridge. In this case you should go into the printer properties and set it for black and white printing or grey scale printing. Some colour printers have an interchangeable cartridge. You would need to remove the colour cartridge and replace it with a compatible black cartridge.
