Used in OfficeJet Pro 8600 Premium
on August 28, 2013
Posted by: Paula K.
First and foremost I own six HP Printers from Mobile 100 to HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium. All printers are four years old or newer. I have been impressed with the latter printers (7500W 8500A Plus & 8600Premium) because of decreased use of ink especially when compared to several older printers that used 56 & 57 cartridges. Friends of mine have tried to "save money" with other house brand and/or refilled cartridges and have pressured me to use refilled in one machine. Not good. Shortly afterwards they have all come back to agree with me since their ink gauges showed amount incorrectly and some have complained about lines or erratic printing.. some only printing part of letters.
Doesn't seem to last as long as my last HP printer ink...I purchased two 8600s and gave my other printers to my son who is happy and has a lower ink cost.
I use this product (inks) in the HP Office Jet Pro 8600 purchased at Staples. It is a great printer and the ink cartridges yeild as advertised. I have found that by the time an ink cartridge runs out I have forgotten what number the replacement is. With my old printer I could never forget as I was buying one every couple of weeks. I like the fact that each color has it's own cartridge. This keeps cost down because you only need to change the one that is empty. With the multi cartridge package it's easy to keep a replacement on hand. With the Pro 8600 system should you deplete the black ink you can print a document in black/greyscale or copy a black text document with just the color cartridges. This is a great feature of the printer and ink system.
Changing the cartridge is fast/easy We use the same printer for home and business every day and the ink is consistent from the simplest doc to more elaborate pages with photos and graphics.
