HP toner works
Yes, it costs a lot more
However, have you ever tried the copy or a refilling unit and then had to go back and buy the original so your printer will work.
If so, you not only paid a lot more, but you wasted a lot of time before you figured out that paying a lot more means you printer works.
Yay

felt lighter than last time I ordered
ran out after 258 pages with a coloured background - 900 pages is apparently only for a 5% colour coverage

Just buy a laser jet (HP)
Well my HP laser Jet is the best printer I have ever bought. I came with 4 large cartridges which bought alone is about what I payed for the printer about 4 years ago. I don’t do any photo prints or anything like that but at least this machine can handle a lot of that kind of printing. No matter what printer laser or ink they are going to use a lot of ink. Just pay more...

Too Expensive!
Replacement cartridges are way too expensive! This is the last of the ordering! Next time I’m out of ink, it will be cheaper to buy a new printer!

Prices for ink are nuts!!
Laser printers are better then ink jets. But the prices of replacing ink for any printer are crazy! I can buy a new printer cheaper then one replacement ink cartridge. This country needs to stop throwing everything away and save our land fills.

Toner Cartridge works great, but ...
Toner Cartridge works great. My only regret is the vast number of different cartridges with similar sizes, shapes and identifiers makes it error prone to select the correct cartridge. I don't mind the price except when you buy the wrong one and you don't realize it until it does not quite fit in the printer. At that point, it is not refundable.
