    I am on my 2nd cartridge in less than a year. Last one only printed out half of what I was promised. Yea, the quality looks good.

      Hi there,

      I am sorry that the cartridge isn't printing as much as you expected That sounds disappointing.

      The advertised estimates of pages are based on a standards set by the industry. How each individual cartridge will perform for you is determined by your own usage. High-density prints (such as images and graphs) will use more ink, especially if the paper is quite absorbent and the air is warm and dry.

      Here are some things that might help lower your ink costs:
      - Make use of the printer's draft mode whenever possible, to help stretch out black and colored ink
      - Use the black only setting when appropriate to save on colored ink
      - Always use the power button on the printer itself to turn it off. That gives it time to ‘park’ so that the cartridges are protected from excessive drying.
      - Shutting the printer down between uses will save electricity and a few drops of ink here and there that are used to keep the inkjets cleared and ready for your next print job.
      - Instant Ink lets you pay by the page. Check out the details at: instantink.com

      If it appears that poor performance is due to a defect or you got a cartridge that was already low on ink, you are free to contact the seller about that.

    HP has rigged their cartridges to dis-advantage the consumer. I got a set of cartridges included in the purchase. They won't work unless you have an active HP Ink refill plan.

      Hi Arnold,

      I am sorry about the misunderstanding. The cartridges that come with the printer and any other compatible cartridges will work without you being on any plan.

      Perhaps the confusion was because while the starter cartridges provided with the printer might say Instant Ink, but you don't have to have an Instant Ink account to use them.

    i suspect I will be replacing this cart prematurely. For example, if only cyan gets used up, I'm going to need to purchase a new tri color cart which is more expensive than a single color cart.

    Unfortunately, I purchased these that replaced the same 962 ink because the original purchase was ineffective. I tried to replace the first purchase and was told since I opened the cartridge box Best Buy would not take them as a return. Well, how can I determine if they are effective unless I opened the container.

    Best Buy has the worst customer service out of every retail store. I will never buy from them again. The phone service is a joke. You have no way to reach your local store for even the smallest issue.

    Old cartridges sent - only 80% full. Yellow cartridge was inoperative. Had to buy a yellow from Amazon which was more expensive but much more reliable.

    Every purchase was frustrating. The ink would only last about three months with very light usage. It was getting more expensive to replace cartridges than replacing the printer. I finally decided to trash this model and go with the Officejet. So far so good.

      Hi Eddie,

      It appears you have strong feelings about the product. I'm very sorry you didn't receive superior results.

      Did the cartridge work at all? If so, then the issue might be a clogged or dry cartridge. Error messages provide a lot of information for troubleshooting.

      Did your printer say anything? If there is anything else HP can help you with, reach out at www.support.hp.com/us-en/contact-hp/.
