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…..

HP 78A Black Toner
I only use HP toner for my HP printer. This rrecommendation has been the recommendation of every printer repairperson whom I have run into in several companies whom I have access to and the repairperson is not a salesperson of the toner cartridges. I am told that getting other knock-off brands only eventually damage the machine. This product exceeds my expectations. I g...

Toner
We love having staples 3 miles away from our home office! The staff is always so friendly especially Cathy (cashier) & Chris (Copy center). This toner always performs great in our copier. The copies come out so professional for our clients. HP is the best product out there.

Reliable product
I do a great deal of printing for personal and professional purposes and both my work and personal printers use this product. I've never had an issue with this product. In concert with the printers I have found this to be reliable: no smearing no unnecessary deposits of toner. I highly recommend this product.

This has been a very valuable option for our company. We have tried a lot of other solutions for our toner needs and have found Staples pricing and reliability in shipping/delivery to be the best. We have found that the hp78a cartridges last longer than the competitors products which utilize recycled cartridges and claim to be more economical than the hp brand. This ha...

HP Toner Cartridge HP-78A
The CE278A toner comes packaged perfectly from the factory; however it was placed in a shipping box large enough for two cartridges, with only a single piece of paper as a filler, not nearly enough to prevent it from bouncing around during transit. It should have had many times the filler to prevent any damage to the cartridge. Luckily for me, the cartridge was okay thi...

Shake It Up
We use this cartridge on an ongoing basis and although it does provide many pages of print, we find that shaking the cartridge when it gets low allows for a longer cartridge life. We shake it once a day once the "change cartridge" indicator alerts on the printer screen.We are very happy with this cartridge, great quality !

toner cartridge
I have always had great success with my toner purchases at staples and the HP 2 pack is no exception. ..the convenience of always knowing you have a backup cartridge is great ....and the fact that I can return the empty cartridge get some staples rewards credit and help the environment is good too. Highly recommend!
