Purchasing toner should not be a significant fraction of the cost to purchase a new printer. HP should find ways to reduce the cost of this product or offer a more economic alternative. The packaging is over-engineered, which also no doubt adds some cost. While I care about the quality of the toner and product the extra mechanism for HP to verify it is genuine does not add value to me.
This magenta HP cartridge works perfectly, was easy to install, and even easier to order! I have just ordered the yellow and cyan cartridges for my printer - also easy to order. Also, I mailed the spent cartridge back to HP for recycling! HP makes great products!
