What can I say? It's the printer manufacturer's own cartridge. Of course it installed easily and worked perfectly; what should I comment on, that it didn't cause my cat to hork up hairballs, my nose to fall off, and Betelgeuse to go supernova? (Well, all right, I suppose we wont really be sure of that last for around 427 years.)
I printed approx 15 black pages of words and the next time I tryed to print, both the black and the color cartridges were showing empty. Short life?
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi David,
I am sorry that the ink seemed to run out too quickly. That is unfortunate, but I hope to help you with that.
Here are some things that might help get the cartridges to last longer: - Use the printer's draft mode whenever possible, to help stretch out both black and colored ink - When appropriate, you can change the settings to print black only. then areas that would use color will print out in shades of gray and save the tricolor cartridge. - Always use the power button on the printer itself to turn it off. That gives it time to ‘park’ so that the cartridges are protected from excessive drying - Shutting the printer down between uses will save electricity and a few drops of ink here and there that are used to keep the inkjets cleared and ready for your next print job
