Hello,
I was saddened to hear you got a cartridge that leaked. It is unfortunate that happened, but I'm glad the other one was fine.
You must carefully unwrap this type of cartridge. While leaking is more common with refills, it can also happen with a damaged or defective cartridge.
A vent near the cartridge label will normally be opened when the tab is pulled completely loose, and the outer plastic covering is removed from around the cartridge. That vent needs to be open to prevent the cartridge from leaking when you twist off the orange tab prior to installing the cartridge. On a defective cartridge, you might have to clear the vent with a straight pin to avoid any leaking.

HP8035 printer isn’t less than four months old .... replaced original cartridge with genuine HP cartridge and I am now getting a funky color when printing black. Very disappointing.
