HAD TROUBLE WITH COMPATIBLES BEFORE. WILL YOURS WORK FIRST TIME?

Had awful difficulty getting my HP 2620 to accept compatibles. Rejected. Will yours work first time?
- Ours should work the same as originals however they come backed with a guarantee in case of any issues.

Asked by Eugene Boyle - Published over 3 years ago

The original HP304XL cartridge contains 5.5ml. How can yours contain 22ml?

Puzzled as to how the same size cartridge can contain 4 times the ink volume.
- The original cartridges are not filled to maximum capacity - our XL cartridges are filled to the maximum to provide our customers with the best value for money.

Asked by R0gerC - Published over 3 years ago

Will the ink level show on my HP Deskjet 2620?

Will my HP Deskjet 2620 be able to show how much ink is left, please?
- It depends on the firmware on your printer and how the data is read on the chip on the cartridge. We do try to have the most up to date chips, but the only sure way is to try. You are fully guaranteed if you are not happy and can have a refund or replacement.

I have recently signed up for instantink and I have been sent ink 304 not 302 . Is there a difference?

Office jet 5200 indies it except 304
- They are different cartridges and will work with different printers, I would suggest you take this up with HP Instant Ink as we are not related to that company

Asked by Peter O'Brien - Published over 3 years ago

Please confirm that my HP2600 All-in -one is totally compatable with the HP304XL as my 2600 printer is not included in your list?

As above
- Please check the number on the cartridges in your printer. Deskjet 2600 is a series number rather than a model number, which is why you are not able to see it listed. Please look for any other numbers which are on the printer to ensure you are ordering the correct cartridges. If you need any help with this, please call our customer service team on 0203 0010234

Asked by Louise - Published over 3 years ago

How many pages will your 17ml compatible HP 304XL cartridge provide?
- These cartridges are measured in ml rather than the amount of pages printed I'm afraid so cannot say for sure. I would suggest it will last at least 300 pages, however please be aware that ISO standard tests are based on 5% coverage of an A4 page.

HP Printer Ink

This is good value ink considering that genuine HP ink is nearly the price of a new printer! And it works well (ignoring the alarmist messages from the printer)

printer cartridges

I ordered HP printer cartridges online. I received an email from Cartridge People.com telling me about their own brand cartridges, which they said were better value. I telephoned the company and spoke to a very friendly, helpful lady, who told me about their own brand products and even explained to me why our printer had rejected re-filled cartridges. The cartridges arrived very promptly and were easy to install. I wait to see how long they last, compared to genuine HP cartridges.

Excellent alternative to original

I was hesitant about buying a non HP ink cartridge but I am delighted to say it works perfectly in my HP Desk jet 3700. The display doesn't show ink level but I will use the print quality to work out when a replacement is needed.

Excellent Service!

Website really easy to use... placed my order in a couple of minutes, without any hassles. Order received extremely quickly & well packed... tracking for order was superb! I've not used this cartridge yet, but I've never had any issues with Cartridge People cartridges before... so I am expecting the same high quality. I also received a free Ice scraper - which has come in very handy recently... Thank you :o)
