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 Toner Cartridge
Product works well. It would be nice of HP and Staples would reduce the regular price. However Staples has frequent coupons and promotions which reduce the price.

I did not yield 2100 pages
I purchased an HP printer as I felt it was a reliable printer; and usually the cartridge (while expensive up front) was more efficient in the long run (versus the smaller ink jet printers). However I find the life of the cartridge is much shorter this past year. I am sure this is more profit for them but I am now upset that I purchased the HP printer using cartridge r...

I would buy this product again and again
Online ordering makes it easy and fast to get the toner I need when I need it. The coupons really make it worth while to shop at Staples along with the free next day delivery. We have had this printer for several years now and have never had any problems with the toner replacement nor any of the other products we have purchased from Staples for this printer or any of th...

Great cartridge but a bit too expensive
I like this cartridge a lot but replacing it is very expensive. Over $100.00 just for a cartridge seems steep to me when some printers are not much more than that. That said, I don't have to replace it very often, which is a plus.
