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…..

Good quality but expensive
I don't switch toner cartridges very often, and while remanufactured cartridges are cheaper, the new ones provide better, more reliable quality. I wish they weren't quite so expensive though, it's almost cheaper to throw out the whole machine and buy a new one with a cartridge already installed.

Toner Cartridge
I just want to say that I have been using Staples for the business I worked for, for over 20 yrs. I had retired for 8 yrs., and have taken another position as Office Mgr. I go most of time and pick up the things we need as I enjoy the friendly staff there - "Always Willing To Help" and very Friendly. I know when I got the new position found that they were getting them f...

Best Ink for the Best Printer HP Makes
I love this ink because it comes with my trusty HP LaserJet P1606dn printer. This inexpensive printer and the HP78a Toner print flawlessly on two sides of the paper without smudge. Staples delivers it promptly whenever I run out!

Toner of choice
I have always had HP printers and now I have an All-In-One. Once only once did I use an off brand and it was a mess. I will always purchase genuine HP products.

Ink toner
I found a deal on the e-mail that offered a percentage off on office supplies. By taking the offer I was able to save about 30% of the cost of the ink cartridge I purchased. The cartridge was the brand name for the printer I use and is a perfect match for itThe cartridge will give me the 8000 copies I need for my office.

At What Price Quality?
HP continues to design quality devices that outlast their usefulness but the tradeoff appears to be ever more expensive and ever diminishing quantities of consumables. Sure the quality of the toner in this cartridge is excellent; that has never been the issue. With every new generation of HP printer an extra pound of flesh is extracted to keep them operational. While...

Performs as expected
I love that my printer lets me know when to purchase another of these, in advance of being "out of toner". I had time to order and didn't lose functionality for a moment.

Great product
I am a bug time coupon shopper and I was using an inkjet printer and buying ink every month. I switched to the toner and I have not bought toner in 3 months! I also used to have coupons not accepted because the print was not so good. I have not ONCE had a coupon denied since I purchased this toner and printer! The time it takes to print also is much faster!! I highly re...
