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…..

We are very happy with this product. We never have smudging with this product. The toner seems to last for a long time, unlike some off brands that promise a lot and produce a little.

I used coupon that I have received from Staples. Order delivery to my house on time and Product is OK. Manage save some money due to the coupon. Thanks for the great prices.

HP 78A Black Toner
I have used HP products for many years. It is always consistent in quality and the company stands behind it products. The value received is always worth while. I would recommend this product to anyone who is considering another brand. HP may be a little more expensive, but it is certainly worth the peace of mind in know that it will work with my equipment. The rebate pr...

toner packet
This is a standard toner package for the HP Laserjet P1606N printer. The twin pack is definitely the best buy since I am purchasing for 3 separate machines. Much better to purchase the HP product than the generic-I never have an issue with the ink it doesn't smudge and the machine accepts it without any problems

Easy to use and install. However it would be nice to be able to get a few more copies from each cartridge. Unfortunately our printer doesnt' have a counter on it so I don't know exactly the nuber of copies we do get but just seems like it should last a tad longer. Otherwise great product.

My HP LaserJet P1606dn is my everyday workhorse private office printer- When I re-order the HP 78A Black Toner Cartridge Twin Pack I feel confident that it will work as expected when installed(easily- I might add) in my printer with a ready replacement all set to go! One less headache to interfere with my busy day! Each cartridge comes with its' own carton which make...

HP 78A black toner cartridge provides excellent quality printing. The twin pack is less expensive than the singly purchased product and I prefer to wait until Twin Packs are discounted before buying the 78A toner. By buying the twin black cartridge I am assured of always having a spare cartridge just in case I suddenly run out of ink.
