Pricey but first class product
I've been using H-P printers in the office and at home for about 20 years. The temptation to save money or to have a non-HP feature is often tempting but i've never succumbed having seen even the older and original Laserjets pump out 1 000 pages per day in an office environment day after day after day.

Toner Cartridge
Does what HP says it will...I still think it is a shame HP stopped [...] from selling their replacement brand. Same performance at a much better price.

Just as Professional as a Printing Shop
We have 4 printers. Three HP Printers and one Dell. We have never experienced a problem with our HP Printer Cartridges. However we have had to return 1 out of every 4 of the Dell replacement cartridges and have experienced problems in getting replacement cartridges in a timely manner.

Use HP accessories with HP products
Trial runs with generic cartridges have proven to me that the HP cartridges are what must be used in the HP printers to get really good print-outs.
