Customer Reviews for HP 67 Tri-Color Standard Yield Ink Cartridge, Prints Up to 100 Pages (3YM55AN#140)

Hi Mary I was sorry to hear that the cartridges did not work well for you. That must have been frustrating. Ink usage generally determines how long a cartridge lasts. High-density prints (like images and graphs) use more ink especially if the paper is highly absorbent and the surrounding air is dry. Things that might help you to save money on ink: - Make use of the printer's draft mode whenever possible - Shut the printer down between uses. That can save ink and electricity - Always use the power button on the printer itself to turn it off. That gives it time to ‘park’ so that the cartridges are protected from excessive drying - Subscribe to Instant Ink then you only pay by the page not for the cartridges themselves If the poor performance appears to be due to a defective cartridge you can look into contacting the store you purchased it from and discuss that with them.

Hi, It was sure to be disappointing when the cartridges didn’t last long for you. Although the trick seems like a good idea, the YouTube video probably didn't tell you how to avoid the clogs. If you have ink in the cartridge but it is not printing, it is probable that the tiny inkjets are clogged and not allowing ink through to the paper. There is a cleaning routine available from the printer's menu used to clear them out more safely than a soak in water. The routine might need to be run more than once to clean out the clogs completely. To prevent clogging - Always use the power button on the printer itself to turn your printer off. That gives it time to position the cartridge so it is protected from excessive drying, which leads to clogs in the inkjets. Mary Chris HP Care hp.com/support

Hi Marcia I'm sorry that this happened to you I can understand your disappointment when the cartridges seem to run out too quickly. How a cartridge will perform will vary according to several things.

Here are some things that might help lower your ink usage: - Set the printer to draft mode whenever possible - Shut the printer down between uses - Always use the power button on the printer itself to turn it off.
