This would be good if you were using up all the ink in each cartridge at least every 9 months or so. If you print a lot of photos year-round it would be a good system. The problem HP built into this system is that the cartridges expire (and may not have much time on them when you buy them--and there is no marking on the box or unit to tell you the expiration date). If you knew that the cartridges had not been sitting around the store and the warehouse you might be ok. If even one of the colors has expired the printer gives an error message and WILL NOT PERMIT YOU TO PRINT. So the net result is YOU HAVE TO THROW AWAY HALF FULL CARTRIDGES!!! This eliminates any potential savings. There is a way to get around this by setting the date on your computer back so the printer thinks that the cartridges are not expired but this is tedious. The ink is still good and they could have simply given a warning and let the customer the right to decide if they wanted to change ink before it was used up. This might be good for a professional or serious amateur photographer. If you print occasionally and are trying to pinch pennies be warned that this printer will not save you money on ink.

Amazon is offering the wrong print cartridge with the HP Designjet 111. When I bought it they offered paper and a black cartridge, but they are offering a HP 10 when it takes a HP 82. This cartridge will not fit in the plotter.

I have had inkjet printers and laser printers and other kinds too. But this is the first time I have had a printer that sports an ink cartridge that actually warns me in advance when it is getting low in ink! The software connected with the printer and ink cartridge will give you a message on your screen that your ink level is low, and even shows you a graphic picture of approximately how low it is, and tells you what will happen when the ink totally runs out (that is, it will stop printing altogether -- unlike other printers that continue to spit out blank pages). The print quality is great, and the cartridge seems to last a good long time. It is easy to replace and install. Who could ask for more?

Large cartridge of intense black pinting ink. Had no trouble installing and using. I consider it excellent value.

Hello, I bought a black replacement ink last week and was really depending on it for finishing a contracted project which is due on monday and I just got it today thursday, that leaves me with just 3 days to finish the project and now I start plotting the machine is now telling me that I should replace my black in, which is the ink cartridge that I bought from you guys.
This is not good at all, and I don't think I'll ever be purchasing another cartridge from you guys ever again as I could have spent a bit more money to buy it somewhere else and complete my project on time, instead of being stuck here with this major problem that would obviously cost me a whole lot of money, as I would not be able to delivr my plans to my clients by monday.

This printer family is wonderful if you do a lot of printing. The printers are pretty costly, but because you can replace each color of ink separately, and replace the printing jet heads for each color separately also, you can save a lot on replacement supplies. These ink cartridges hold a *lot* of ink.

By comparison, with a lot of cheap printers, if the yellow runs out, or the holes in the magenta printing jet plug, you need a whole new cyan-yellow-magenta ink-and-jet cartridge -- and the cartridges usually hold very little ink.

This type of ink has excellent darkness range, from very faint gray to very high-contrast black. The color cartridges have great color range. Together, the overall color range is almost as good as a specialty "photo" printer, but the ink doesn't cost nearly as much. While it really looks great on fancy paper, it works well even on cheap paper...

This is the exact same packaging and cartridge that you get at Stapes, Officemax, etc., however, it's much cheaper to buy it through Amazon!

When I purchased the HP designjet 111 with roll this item popped up saying that people that purchased the designjet also purchased the HP Ink cartage 10 so I purchased it, when I received the designjet it required a different INK Cartage I contacted HP and they said that the Designjet 111 will only take the 82 not the 10. Maybe it would have taken the 10 I don't know, I didn't want to do anything to affect the warranty so I sent it back, as it turns out I feel I received wrong information from Amazon and there was no one I could contact about the confusion so it was shipped back at my expense.

I order this ink type (hp10) with the suggestion from amazon to buy it....not the right ink...ahhh! now i cant find the right ink any where!!!

HP printer ink is pricey, but never fails and always produces an excellent printed page. I have been using HP ink for many years and will continue to do so.
