5.0 out of 5 stars Great Price For Efficient Cartridges, September 19, 2004

By	Robert I. Hedges - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

This bundle contains two HP 56 black (C6656AN) cartridges used on many common HP DeskJet printers. As I am in graduate school, I use my printer a lot (about 1,000 pages a month of mostly black and white pages.) I typically use a cartridge every three weeks or so, which seems very good to me. I have enabled some ink saving features on the printer, although the quality of the printed pages still seems excellent to me.

I am very impressed with these cartridges, and Amazon's price is the best I have found. One feature that I like is that HP is now putting business reply mail return envelopes for returning old cartridges for recycling. As an aside, on my printer I get a low ink warning long before the printing is visibly degraded, so I tend to print until I can see the ink fading, which may account for me getting more copies per cartridge than others seem to.

I like the HP printer line, and recommend an HP DeskJet with appropriate cartridges for efficient and reasonably priced printing, especially to relatively high volume home users.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best to buy original HP, May 27, 2005

By	Gayle Durham "cartridge woman" (Miami, Fl) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought a refurbished cartridge and it didn't work.

Best to buy original HP cartridge whether you buy it from Amazon or a private individual.

3.0 out of 5 stars New versus recycled, July 28, 2005

By	T. Kramer (Chicago, Illinois) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

A print cartridge is a print cartridge, and it is not clear to me why I continue to buy some of them brand-new, as opposed to the considerably cheaper recycled ones. So far, I have had no problems with any of the recycled cartridges that I have bought.
