Great service and product
I searched for a reasonably priced ink cartridge for an older printer. I found the best deal at Staples and received same day pickup.

I’m pretty disappointed in HP’s line of ink cartridges.
I’m pretty disappointed in HP’s line of ink cartridges. No matter how many pages you seem to print or what ink you use on them these cartridges seem to dry up on their own within a month/month and a half. Even printing just the alignment page and nothing else and waiting that duration of time seems to be enough time for the cartridges to simply dry up. These HP ink c...

Response from Staples :
Hi Nicholas I am sorry that you had this experience. It was sure to have been disappointing. It is possible that you're having a problem because of the maintenance routine run by the printer. A few drops of ink here and there are used to keep the inkjets cleared and ready for your next print job. Those drops can add up if you don't print too often. It is a good idea to shut the printer down between uses. However it is very important to always use the power button on the printer itself to turn it off. That gives it time to ‘park’ so that the printhead is protected from excessive drying which leads to clogging of the inkjets. If it appears that the poor performance is due to a defect or that you got a cartridge that was already low on ink you can contact the seller about that. Mary Chris HP Care hp.com/support

Had to underbuy
Unfortunately Staples was out of the cartridge I really wanted the XL but in fairness so was everyone else perhaps polishing up post-Covid resumes. At least it works fine.

HP61 Black Standard Yield Ink Cartridge
Was disappointed! Third time I have been in for HP61 XL that they still do not have. HP61 is great no issues but prefer the XL since it lasts longer. Great product though and never had an issue with it.

Not sure why it can't handle the big jobs...
This latest batch of cartridges must be watered down. The quality was good for the eight (8) high-quality sheets I printed and then disappeared. Now it's saying that I need to replace again. What?? I am ready to go to laser now.
