User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars great cartridge
We have never had any trouble with HP 56 black ink cartridges. We use them in our old HP PSC 1210 printer, perhaps printing one or two pages per day, and each cartridge lasts about a year. Good job, HP.

5 Stars Excellent, Fast service!
Printer cartridge was brand new in box, arrived within a few days, and was much cheaper than any store. Highly satisfied!

5 Stars In the case, the name brand is best
I have tried alternatives to the HP brand for printer ink, but every time I have problems with print quality. Generic cartridges left streaks or did not work at all, and refilling was painfully messy at best.

Now I purchase only the HP brand printer cartridges for my HP printer. I have never had any problems with this style/brand/make of cartridge. Consistently, the ink is delivered crisply, clearly and without inconsistencies to my paper. No smudging, smearing or leaking. The only time there is ever an issue is when the ink gets too low– time to change out the cartridge, obviously.

These cartridges have a very easily identifiable numbering system. Getting the right size and type of ink is easy with HP’s system. I appreciate that, for sure! Also, the cartridges are designed so that they are easy to install– you just remove it from the package, peel off the tape and slide it into place in the printer… Can’t get better than that, right?

5 Stars bigger size than HP 27
In case you wonder, the HP 56 is 19ml compared to the HP 27 which has 10ml. This seems to be the better deal of the two.

5 Stars Easy, Very.
It’s so hard to remember when you actually are near an officemax or staples what EXACTLY the number on that cartridge was that you were needing so soon – and to buy the wrong one risks wasting money. Being able to go online, when you’re right near your printer, and get what you need at a great discount AND with free shipping made an exasperating scenario, easy. Very.
