Customer Reviews for HP 61 Black High Yield and Tri-Color Standard Yield Ink Cartridge, 2/Pack (CZ138FN#140)

Hello, I'm sorry that the cartridges you received didn't print much. The estimates of copies made is based on industry standards. In real life situations, the results can vary. Here are a few facts about ink usage that might help you: - A high-density print (like an image or graph) will use the ink more quickly than a text-only document, especially if the paper is highly absorbent and the environment is dry. If you print a lot of photos and such, you will find that Instant Ink is likely to be a good option for you, since you pay by the page, not for cartridges. Details at: instantink.com - A lot of black is used in most printouts, so it usually runs out faster. However, using the draft and black only settings on your printer can help save on ink (particularly the colors). - 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 to 'park' so that the nozzles that spray the ink onto the paper are protected from excess drying. When it appears that the low page yield was caused by a defective cartridge, you can always contact us: Our return and exchange process is covered, step-by-step, at: store.hp.com/us/en/cv/returnsandexchanges Mary HP Care hp.com/support
