Have always used HP CARTRIDGES. I have used the # cartridge for a new HP printer that used up the ink that came with the printer. Would not ever use any other cartridges.
Hi there Sharon I respect your feelings about the product. Still I think the improvement in page yields is realistic for you. Always check the amount of ink in a new cartridge. If you get a low cartridge you can return it. Low cartridges are relatively rare. The most common cause of ink dryness is the habits of the consumer. Shutting down the printer protects the cartridge. If you decrease the print quality settings in the printer you will save additional ink. Amanda HP Care www.hp.com/support/
My purchase of HP printer ink is a great deal. An XL Black and an XL Tri-Color are packaged together at an excellent price compared to other stores. Keep it up Staples.
