Customer Reviews for HP 62XL Black High Yield Ink Cartridge, Prints Up to 600 Pages (C2P05AN#140)

Hi, I'm sorry that it seemed that the black cartridge ran out too fast. Unless a cartridge was damaged or defective, the ink usage determines how long it will last. High-density prints (such as images and graphs) will use more ink, especially if the paper is highly absorbent and the environment is dry. There is a possibility that the maintenance routines caused part of this. The tiny nozzles that spray the ink onto the paper get clogged easily. It is necessary to spray some ink through them occasionally to ensure that they stay clear. Shutting the printer down between uses can result in some savings. However, always use the power button on the printer itself to turn it off. That will let the printer 'park' so that the cartridges are protected from excess drying. When it appears that the low page yield was caused by a defective cartridge, it is always an option to contact the seller. Mary HP Care hp.com/support

Hi, I'm sorry that it seemed that the black cartridge ran out too fast. Unless a cartridge was damaged or defective, the ink usage determines how long it will last. High-density prints (such as images and graphs) will use more ink, especially if the paper is highly absorbent and the environment is dry. Here are some things that might help lower your ink usage: - Use the printer's draft mode and black-only settings whenever possible, to save ink, particularly colors. - Shut the printer down between uses; however, always use the power button on the printer itself to turn it off. That lets it ‘park’ so that the cartridges are protected from excessive drying. - Consider getting Instant Ink. The subscription plans are based on how many pages you print.
