Toner Purchase
The toner was exactly what we needed for our printer, I just wish they still offered spending discounts like they used to. I buy so much less than I did before.

Extremely overpriced!
I have purchased hundreds of these from Staples and have decided that I am not paying their high prices anymore. The cartridge works fine but is overpriced.

Improved Product
I have just purchased my third set of toner cartridges for my CP1518ni printer. The replacement cartridge was a far better, longer lived, product. The software now provides a warning concerning remaining life of the individual cartridges rather than admonishing you for not replacing them at factory set intervals. Being frugal is still a virtue and being the decision mak...

good results--at a price
Not so sure I would buy a printer again that takes this cartridge--I am spending a lot of money for a small business on just cartridges--replacing all 4 in less than 3 months--might not sound like much but 4 times [$] times 4 colors makes it[$] a month just for ink. Seems like a lot to me.

Good but could be better!
We bought our machine because of the cartridges lasting longer; however they do not yield even close to 2200 copies per cartridge. I think they should last a lot longer than they do.

2200 pages. Not so!
I might get 500 pages on a good day with these things. HP needs a better toner replacement policy to keep users loyal and not make me want to buy a new machine every time I have to change the ink. Way too expensive. How can a 200 machine use 400 on ink every few months. A true crime worse than gasoline prices.

Short life for all 4 colors. Too expens
I will not recommend this printer to no one. Inexpensive printer and toner costs [$]+ tax every 2 months. I am not wealthy. I only get [$] refund for the empty cartridge. You are robbing your customers. Shame on you!
