78A cartridge page yield
Terriible performance. I got on 588 double-sided copies (1176pp) from one cartridge that is rated at 2100pp output. I cannot afford to use this printer & will be trying to return it.

Great Toner
I've used this toner for 3 or so years now and it has always performed well. It also is so easy to change and you don't get toner all over yourself.
A hint would be: if your toner starts to get low; take it out and shake it, then replace. You will find you can get quite a few more pages from it.
The toner is very expensive to me...but it performs well.

Fine product
This laser cartridge is easy to install and produces the desired results. When toner starts to run out, the life of the cartridge can be significantly prolonged and dozens more pages printed if the cartridge is removed, shaken and reinstalled. Be careful to do this over the sink or garbage pail though as some toner powder is likely to fall out. No complaints about this ...

Good print quality
The print quality is good but the life of each cartridge is way below advertised I go thru 2 a month on a normal month. I think it takes two cartridges to get 2100 copies.

hp toner cartridge
I do like that it is so easy to install very quick and not messy you don't have all the ink on your fingers and clothes because it comes out very easy the packaging is great it keeps it safe so you don't have to worry about parts broken. I also like that I can take my old cartridge back to the store and get credit on my account. I can also go to the store and get the ca...

This is well worth the $.
Toner works well. I tried generic toner and was unhappy with the results, both in image and length of usage. I would recommend this toner to others. HP is a good product, both in equipment and supplies to support the product. I have had HP computers and printers and would recommend them to others. HP is number one on my list of office equipment.

Necessary, but expensive
The product is good there just isn't enough toner in it to last. Plus toner clumps and the cartridge needs to be removed and shaken, this often happens to the toner when there are still hundreds of copies left inside.
The truth of the matter is that if you have a printer that requires this cartridge you have to buy it. I only wish you didn't have to buy them so often

This is the best toner on the market.
The 78A toner produces sharp images and copies. We would recommend this toner to anyone.

Always Reliable
A toner will last me about six months. The most frequent sale "specials" I see are for inkjet cartridges. When the toners go "on sale", it is always a "two-for" deal- I'd rather not risk having a toner dry out or cake up by letting it sit for six months or longer.

Backs up trademark products quality
Cartridge lass a long time in normal home usage. The copies are sharp and unsmeared right up tote end of toner content.

Too expensive, and quality has decreased
I have noticed the quality has decreased, this last cartridge I swear doesn't have 2,100 copies in it, so I have marked the date to see how it preforms, and counting copies. Was great in the beginning, but I have noticed quality is going down hill. For the price no deals, I do not believe I am getting good value. I am getting my assistant to search out other alternative...

It works, but is too costly!
This cartridge, unlike other HP cartridges I have used in other laser printers, costs too much for the number of pages it will print.
