Good quality - but shorter than expected
High quality toner cartridge but life is short especially when the price is factored in. I know that HP needs to make a profit but the short service life of this cartridge is an environmental issue even when they are recycled.

Cutting corners?
1) Never get alert that toner is running out. 2) Now getting fewer print pages out of each cartridge than previously.

No staples brand available for this prod
When I brought the printer for my son there was a staples brand cartridge available. There is not now and I am not pleased about that as the HP brand is very expensive.

good but expensive
number of copies is not good for such a high price. It is easy to load good quality and like most HP items trouble-free.

Great Value but Buy the 2 pack
When the toner runs out take the cartridge out and shake it - you can do this 3 or 4 times and get another 100 or so copies out

Not a great price
Wish Staples had a less expensive compatible cartridge.
