Without ink - paper is just paper!

There are many things that I like about this ink. One that I can get the extended cartridges so that I get more ink two the way it is packaged so that it works well for storage. The cartridges load easily which is good because they last for a long time and I have to remember how to reload them again! The colors are good and the ink does not smudge. I always make sure I buy extra even though the printer gives plenty of warning when the ink is getting low. It is pricey when I go to buy but value wise - due to the fact that it lasts a long time it doesn't really cost that much.
These ink cartridges provide a good quality printed page. I have not tried it for photos however. I would recommend them for general usage and have had no problem with them. They have lasted longer than I expected but I find them pricey but not pricier than other ink that I have purchased. I just think that ink is expensive no matter where you get it. I once had a co-worker who suggested that instead of buying ink you just purchase a new printer. Depending on the kind of printer you purchase that may not be such a bad idea!
Don't let your printer dictate when you change the cartridges because you get quite a lot more sharpe copies from the XL after the printer keeps telling you ink is low.
I switched to hp because of their reputation for reliability and the need to print on fabric. Was not disappointed. Colors on fabric were bright and clear. Much better than previous printer for reliability. So far I have not had any skips or missing colors. The printer gives me plenty of warning if I am running low and allows me to print using the colors if I am low in black and need to finish a job that is printing. So far I am well satisfied. I also like that I can return empty cartridges for a small rebate. Keep it up!
