I only needed one cartridge! Will not live long enough to use two!
Already responded that it is unfair to make a customer buy two in a pack when self life and use are considered. $215 for two cartridges is really unconscionable and unfair. Address the issue…..

I'd but this product again!
I order several of these cartridges at a time. I've never had any problem with the quality. They even enclose a UPS label to return your used cartridge for recycling at no charge to you. I'm very pleased with our choice of printers and cartridge refills.

AWESOME!!
I am always pleased with the quality of the items I purchase for our school and this cartridge is no exception! The 1-2 day delivery and the no hassle pricing and discounts are wonderful. I never have to worry about getting things I need - when I need them!

Better value than buying one by itself
Lasts a while. Give it a shake when it starts to lighten and you'll get a little more life out of it.

Consistent dependability
After a couple years of trying to save a buck by purchasing refilled cartridges I have returned to the consistent dependability of HP cartridges. The refilled cartridges seemed to have watered down ink sometimes only half full and rarely providing the quality results needed for producing quality business documents. I guess you get what you pay for. In the long run it...

HP Tonor Expensive but good quality
I Finally broke down and bought a HP printer. I must say the quality is great and I haven't experienced any issues. However resupplying the tonor is quite expensive compared to the Brother that I used to use. Next time I will probably go with a Brother due to expense. I don't need super high quality as most of my printing is documents with type and not graphics.
