HP printer cartridges
When I run out of a printer cartridge, it's great to have Staples in the neighborhood so I can easily get a replacement cartridge.

HP ink
I do not do much printing & I have been advised that I am low on several colors!
The generic brand of ink, the ink lasted so much longer.

Proprietary money grab!
The printer will stop working if you don’t print a lot. They have a chip in the cartridge that will stop the printer from working. Even if you still have ink. I had to throw out thee cartridges that still had ink.

Yellow cartridge faulty.
The yellow from the ink I just ordered is already running out. I rarely print in color. It should last me at least a year. This happened with the last order too.

Response from Staples :
Hello Phyllis, You expect that cartridges last a year. Even if you don't use the printer frequently, many factors prevent colors from lasting that long. Most likely, your cartridge is just dry. Try cleaning the copper contacts on the printhead. I also recommend you clean the print rollers. Restart the printer and reinsert the cartridge. The other option you have is a return at www.hp.com/us-en/shop/cv/ReturnsandExchanges?id=page-return-exchange-policy/. I hope this doesn't happen again. Amanda HP Care www.hp.com/support/

I always buy the XL because it lasts longer. It's worth buying and easy to order and install.

Ink is just crazy expensive
I always use HP cartridges but the price has gotten out of control. I think rather than buy new ink I’m just going to buy a printer. Cheaper.

It is just ink
What can be exciting or worth commenting about a replacement ink cartridge? They run out; you purchase a new one. No magic involved.

Overpriced cartridges
I think it is ridiculous that after I bought an overpriced cartridge for black ink my printer would not work because I need to buy the color cartridges as well to print in black
and white. The total for the cartridges cost almost what I paid for the printer. When I went back to buy the color pack, I saw an Epson printer with the refillable cartridges and bought it in...

Works Great too expensive
This ink works great for my printer however it is too expensive. I paid almost double for it this time which is ridiculous. Thinking of switching to another printer where the ink is less expensive.

Quick and easy
Every thing you need in one BOX! Usually all ink cartridges start going low at the same time. Great to have on hand usually when one is empty soon they are ALL empty!
