[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased HP 88XL Black ink cartridge a month or so ago. In my opinion getting the XL black cartridge is the only way to go; better value (more pages printed / dollar spent) along with fewer re-orders / year.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I ordered the wrong ink cartridge (my fault, not HP's) and the gal at customer service was sweet, kept telling me not to worry about it, and had the cartridges switched to the ones my printer needed within a day. I love my HP printer and the HP ink cartridges anyway, but I'm an even bigger fan on HP now.
Although this particular cartridge tends to be hard to find (88 series) I was pleased that HP still had them available. Solid black, good print and long lasting. I'll definitely order more (including colors) in the future.
