I just got a remanufactured cartridge instead of a new, HP-made one. See comments from others. My complaint is that Amazon allows at least this seller to post a misleading product description. The weasel word which they use to cover their tracks is "replacement." This hardly connotes "remanufactured."

Amazon needs to police its 30-rd party sellers far more vigorously. I don't blame the 3rd party, I blame Amazon.

The picture in the ad is a real HP toner cartridge box, and the description says it is from Hewlet Packard. However many of the items for sale are NOT genuine HP cartridges, and others are genuine, but refilled cartridges with "NEW" as the condition.

Let the buyer beware, Amazon is allowing clone sellers and refillers pretend to sell new HP cartridges with no clear indication of what you are buying from some of the merchants. Kudos to the merchants clearly stating what they are selling, but shame on Amazon for allowing some merchants to make it look like they are selling the real thing when they aren't. The picture is of a genuine HP product, this should NOT be allowed if some or all of the items are from third party manufacturers or are refills.

Let the buyer beware!

I use refills all the time, but the quality is not the same as new. I have my cartridges refilled locally, and when they wear out (and they do wear out) I tell the refiller to keep them, and I buy new replacements (and refill those till they wear out).

Only HP manufactured new cartridges should be sold under this item listing as new. A second listing for clone cartridges made by third parties should allow third party cartridges that are new to be sold as new, and all refills should be sold as used.

The box I received was that of international marketing (Grey Goods), this is typically only sold outside the USA.

I was never informed of this when I made the purchase. The box has very little English on it.

Buyer beware.

This review is for the new product, supplied by Amazon. This is indeed a new product, supplied in the genuine HP retail box. There is a notation on the box saying that some parts may have been "selectively recovered" from cartridges returned to HP for recycling. I take this to mean that HP is incorporating some recycled parts in new products to keep them out of the landfill. Sounds good to me. The product looks and works just like any new product would. And if you want to return your empty toner cartridge to HP to recycle it, easy instructions for that are in the box.

This is a new genuine new HP cartridge! Not gray market. I'll try to upload a couple photos but my box look just like the picture on this listing. Ordered mine through Amazon (February 2011) and was fulfilled by Adorama. I can't speak for other vendors but maybe it's a good idea to make sure your order is from one you trust.

Not much else to say about this cartridge. Oh HP still packs them with a pre-paid UPS label to send back your empty. Eco friendly -- way to go HP! :)

10,000 pages for $100. That is not bad when you look at some others. Look at the quality, volume, and price before purchasing your next printer. A printer with a toner cartridge cost of $30 may sound cheap, but if you only get 2000 pages, that is more expensive in the long run. If only HP made better quality color laserjet printers. What happened HP? I bought a HP 2025dn and the color quality was so horrible that I had to take it back. The red was nearly black, the blue was almost brown even after trying to correct the color. I had used a 5550 in the past and was pleased with the color. The 2025 was a poor excuse at any cost.

Works as good as new! Get the HP 4050N which I reviewed, this cartridge fits and works like HP's.

It is a replacement inkjet cartridge. It works as well as one would expect. I have never used a different type cartridge to see if the colors are different with this printer. I have used a couple of these replacement cartridges, and they are excellent.
