Cheap Chinese made cartridges that have done nothing but give me a headache. No amount of removing and unplugging and jumping up and down on one leg will make the printer recognize these brand new cartridges. Will be returning and then researching options for a new printer. This is so typical of HP.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi,
I am sorry that the cartridges didn’t work. I can understand if you are not happy, but rest assured that we take your feedback very seriously.
If you are getting an incompatible cartridge error, that usually indicates a defect. Please consider returning them to us. Step-by-step instructions for completing the return and exchange process is covered at: store.hp.com/us/en/cv/returnsandexchanges
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I waited forever for them to arrive. Just installed them this morning and getting an error "Cartridges aren't communicating correctly with the printer".

The contacts that connect with the cartridges might be smudged or damaged. Carefully polish the copper contacts on the cartridge (and the matching ones inside the printer) with lint-free material to get off fingerprints or dust.
If that does not help, you can find step-by-step instructions for completing the return and exchange process at: store.hp.com/us/en/cv/returnsandexchanges
This machine is lightning fast and so quiet. I love almost everything about it. My two complaints about it are: 1) They put 4GB Ram (x2) using both memory slots. Now I will have to replace memory to expand my memory. (Even though the specs on the web site said it would have 8GB (x1)) 2) Their support rep. told me that I would void my warranty if I added memory. WHAT???? 3) They should have made it with more USB ports. There is only one + the USB-C port. 4) They should have put a VGA (or another HDMI) adapter on the PC. This is limiting and when I bought a 3rd party hub, it won't work because this PC's video doesn't support DIsplay Port. I would still recommend this PC, but with warning about the above. It really does a great song and dance!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have used this ink since we bought our printer. We won't use any other kind. We've had no problems with this product.
I have had issues in the past with HP cartridges with my HP printer, but these this time actually worked as intended. But I do fill that the price of ink should be less considering the new technology and ability to refill existing cartridges.
