I have used HP cartridges for 10 years in this printer. They had refilled cartridges so I tried them. Very disappointed with the results so I went back to HP original cartridges. Expensive, but at least they do the job I need done.
Not sure if the extra expense of already expensive ink is worth it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi,
I am sorry that you are not pleased about how long the cartridges last.
High-density prints will use up a cartridge rapidly, especially if the paper is highly absorbent and the environment is dry.
Using the draft and black only settings on your printer helps save ink. Also, shutting the printer down between uses can help. There needs to be a warning about that though - you should always use the power button on the printer itself to turn it off. That will let the printer 'park' itself so that the cartridges are protected from excess drying.
