In the modern "paperless" world I have found I am printing far more than ever before. Go Figure. Anyway this produce is a necessity for printing. Yes it does what it is supposed to do which is magically stick to the paper in a predetermined manner that when complete is clear crisp and easy to read. Unless your source is not crisp clear and easy to read. It is unbelievably expensive for what you are getting but printers are so much cheaper these days than a few years back. With that in mind I suppose it balances out in the end.
We just purchased from Staples 2 HP printers that use 950/051 in cartridges. We have had many other HP printers and have always purchased the ink at Staples. In addition there was a coupon for a certain % off the price which maded it an ever better buy.
The HP 950XL 951 Color Ink Cartridges C/M/Y Combo Pack (C2P01FN) by HP produces clear and colorful prints including photographs...I like that my pictures are sharp and professional looking. I particularly like the XL Black cartridge included in this combo pack. My main complaint is that all of the color cartridges run out quickly and must be replaced more often than the black ink. I would like to see a cartridge that includes extra ink for all the colors in the ink package.
