This is a great ink cartridge.You can fet alot of photos from it and great color.I got about 40-50 8.5 x 11 color photos from it.on glossy paper before it starts getting low.The black does last longer with just black an white printing.I used these alot.They do ten to be on the high side at Staples I guess because of the chip for the printer cant used cheap off name brands because of that..wont work.
I've had HP printers for 20-30 years. My old HP was very economical. Now they essentially force one to the subscription ink price based on estimated use in copies per month (they say 1/2 regular retail cost). But my use is erratic and rollover of copies per month is limited to 300 copies. So you pay per month even if you do not print. Now during IRS tax time I need copies!! This system is a real gotcha! According to reviews the printer blocks the use of Staples recycled ink. Has anyone figured out a work-around on that?
