I started my printing project with 4 new full ink cartridges but all 3 colors ran out after roughly 75 pages. I was using a new HP Inkjet Pro 6860 printer because it could handle the cover stock and card stock paper that I use for my popup cards. It may be great handling thick paper but it's terrible with ink usage. I have no intention of buying more ink for that printer as it's like throwing money away. To be honest I'm not sure the results would have varied if I used higher priced HP-manufactured ink instead of the economic TRU RED brand cartridges.

Leaked and wouldn't work

The black leaked all over me, my floor and my printer when I opened it. I cleaned it up, put it in my printer and my printer won't accept it.
Great price but too good to be true. Unable to purchase original HP ink due to recall sale associate suggested this product. Product is made by Staples. As soon I placed Tru Red Cyan an error came on and was unable to make an copy nor print from Mac book or CPU. Also an warning error pop up on my Mac book regarding an”warning to download software” and now I am not able to take off my warning until i call Apple customer service. When I return product to store assistant manager said this is still fairly new product for Staples and no complaints yet o happen to be the first to her knowledge.
this was not a product worth the money. the blue ink printed pink. I ended up just throwing them out. i'm still looking for HP 902 ink which seems to be out of stock everyplace.
