The HP 88 series refills are ink cartridges only. That is to say that instead of replacing the usual ink (w/ new print head), you are only buying a cartridge with ink. I've changed every color multiple times and haven't had to replace the user-replaceable print heads. Which means I'm getting a lot more pages/$. The other advantage of the HP 88 series cartridges are the ability to replace only the color you need. Unlike the tri-color cartridges, which require you to replace all three colors when you are likely only "out" of one color, you can replace the the color you need, saving you money on wasted ink. Great product...highly recommend any printer that utilizes the HP 88 cartridges.

Replacement is very simple and easy and the printer is always monitoring status yet the cartridge emptied far sooner then the indicated page estimate amount. I have made it a point to make notes in response to this and verify my suspicions.

Comments about HP 88 Black Ink Cartridge (C9385AN):

It doesn't seem to last very long. the price is a little bit to high.. It should be cheaper for no more than what a person gets. But the printer that it goes in is an excellent printer. I really like the printer that I got but I just wish the ink was alot cheaper and more affordable for it. but while it last's it does seem to do a pretty decent job. The color ink cartridges are way too expensive as well. They should be a lot lower cost.. I do however believe that if this is it was a lot cheaper that you would be able to sell lots more of it.. If you could get it at a lower cost and still have the same amount of ink in it..

  • Q:

    Is this cartridge the large size?
    Asked on 10/25/2010 by Anonymous

    1 answer

    • VERIFIED BUYER

      A:

      NO it is not it is the average size about (850)pages if you want more than that you need to look for the same cartridge number but it will have XL on it that does over 1200 pages great if you do lots of phots but it also depends on the type and weight of the paper being used as it does make a difference I usually use Staples Bright White paper as it is about the smae cost and does a excellent job for writting resume's and other important paperwork looks professionally done like at a print shop!.

  • Q:

    can this cartridge be refilled?
    Asked on 12/31/2009 by Anonymous

    • VERIFIED BUYER

      A:

      I'm sorry, I've never refilled it myself, I can't say for sure. HP 88 refills are so inexpensive, because unlike most ink jet cartridges...they are ink only, not ink with a brand new print head, therefore I never considered trying. I can tell you that I've seen "remanufactured" cartidges on other sites...so I assume someone has figured out how to do so. Good luck.

      A:

      I do not think so. I do not use any refilled cartridges. too messy and others I have talked to say you don't get the same quality print.
