When Hp sell you a new printer they only give you starter cartridges with it which hold a very small amount of ink in them Hp 350 black and the Hp 351 colour cartridges. I was using about 3 black and 2 colours cartridge per month and it was costing me a small forturne. I later found out that Hp do a higher yield versions of the 350 and 351 cartridges which cost only a few pounds more but hold far more ink in them than the starter cartridges which I was using before. What you need is a HP 350XL on the black which hold 20mls of ink rather than the 4.5mls of ink that is in the 350 starter cartridge and on the colour what you should be using is a HP 351XL which holds 13mls rather than the 3.5mls which is in the 351 colour starter cartridge. I can even go one better, I now use a company called advantage online who stock the Hp originals plus do a british premium compatible 350XL and 351XL cartridges which hold 20mls black and 13mls colour. I have used them a couple of times so far and have been quite inpressed. I hope you don’t fall into the Hp trap of selling a very good printer (Officejet J5740) at a very cheap price and then trying to charge you load of money for starter cartridges which are nearly empty.

The print quality from this black ink deffinitely meets my needs, but I swear it seems to run dry really fast. I’ve found myself purchasing a new cartridge every few months, when I don’t do that much printing. Certainly not 200 pages, I think that estimate’s a little high. Maybe it’s just my printer, I don’t know. I use the colour HP 351 cartridge too, and it never seems to run out as fast. Might wanna consider a cheaper alternative, such as at AB Cartridges. (Google it).

Good fast delivery. Free postage and you pay less than you would in the shops or from HP direct. No complaints here.
