Compatible with the HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 - it's the 'better value' size
By A. Dent
This is probably the best value you can currently get for the HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 printers if you decide to stay with the officially approved cartridge. Its 2200-page rating is more than double that of the HP 940 Officejet Black Ink Cartridge (C4902AN) but it costs only 1/3 more. Definitely preferred even for a casual user because, unless you use your printer as a fashion statement or status symbol in the office, you ARE going to have to replace a 1000-page cartridge, sooner or later.

The 2,200 page rating is based on HP's testing methodology meaning that it's highly unlikely that you will get 2,200 pages out of your cartridge. If you make copies, if you print photos, if you use the high quality settings you are going to run out of ink much sooner but the fact remains that you do get a lot more ink in this cartridge than in the 'regular' one.

HP claims (couldn't verify) that using Officejet inks on papers with the ColorLok logo the output will retain color quality 'for decades'. Such an ink/paper combination, according to HP, will produce documents that resist water and fading.

Made in Singapore.

High Volume Ink Cartridge - Recommended
By C. Hill
The HP 940XL Ink Cartridge provides a lot of pages for the money in my HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-In-One Printer. We use our printer every day, having two teens in school and both my wife and I doing work from home, so we can use up a standard size cartridge fairly quickly. Since we don't like to use 3rd party inks, these high volume cartridges are the best value for us.

Recommended!

High Volume printing---> this is a must!
By Christopher
I purchased the HP OfficeJet 8500 because of the volume yields for printing (especially the black). I am running a tax and accounting business and I obviously blow through black ink on a regular basis. This helps me keep costs down and the ability to print with an inkjet allows me to provide colorful financial statements, reports, etc for my clients. If you need a little more than laser black and white printing, but cannot afford a color laser, I would recommend this product along with purchasing the HP 8500. Love this printer because of the XL cartridges and the ability scan my workpapers easily. This printer also allows you to define the buttons on the front of the unit to perform specific tasks... scan to client files directory, scan to email, etc. Very handy and I have been advising my monthly customers to get one of these for their small business needs.

My cartridges were perfect
By RuRu
After reading all the reviews I was a little hesitant to purchase these cartridges, however my purchase was excellent.

I have free Amazon Prime as a student member this year (Thank you Amazon!) and the price of these cartridges is approximately $20 cheaper than my previous purchases for the same product from office supply stores.

I ordered the cartridges, they arrived in two days and I installed them immediately without any problems. They didn't make a mess, and my HP all-in-one C4180 works like a charm again. It printed a test page, and I was off printing photos on photo paper, as well as my notes for class.

I did not see any indication that they were refurbished cartidges and I will continue to buy my cartidges from Amazon at a fraction of the retail price.

junk
By Robert
The color cartridge printed one good copy, then one bad copy, then the printer would not do anything because it indicated a bad color cartridge. I installed a new HP. color cartridge, then the printer would not recognize the black cartridge. All total I got four copies from both cartridges

Okay, when they work
By Big Al
My HP printer produces acceptable black & white and color documents with these ink cartridges. The quality of the prints is not great but presentable. I rarely print photos so I leave that part of evaluation to other reviewers. All I said is true, when the cartridges work. When a cartridge malfunctions and you try to make a warranty claim with HP, you have a problem, because the HP ink cartridge warranty isn't worth the paper it is printed on. This happened to me recently. Previously, I bought my replacement ink cartridge at a retail store. Several months into use, I got an error message that "there is a problem with the Tri-Color cartridge." The ink level was half-full a few days ago. I followed the help menu and cleaned the print head and copper contacts numerous times, to no avail. I read the HP ink cartridge warranty, checked the expiration day on the cartridge and found that it expires on 1/1/2012, almost a full year from today. I decided to make a warranty claim with HP. After spending a good half an hour talking to a man in India, I was told that because my printer was out of warranty, HP would not warrant the ink cartridge, even thought I bought the replacement cartridges separately from the printer in a retail store. I wound up throwing out the malfunctioning cartridge and bought a new one. I wasn't happy. See my comment below for a full account of what happened.

A note regarding printer compatibility (7210 All-in-One specific)
By Rick Brooks
When I was looking into ordering this item, I used the Amazon "will this work with your printer" tool. While the Amazon tool said these inks would not work with my Officejet 7210 All-in-One, some research online led me to believe that this ink would work with my printer (even with it being vivera ink).

This isn't a slam against Amazon, as I know that innocent mistakes are bound to happen when a company tries to list the compatibility of inks with almost all printers. Nonetheless, I wanted to let fellow 7210 owners know that on the side of the ink box, the 7210 is specifically listed as compatible (and indeed, when I installed the inks into my 7210, the printer loaded right up and printed perfectly).

If you are wondering if this ink is right for you, I would suggest you make note of the "96/97" ink numbers seen in the product image, and go to HP's website. On their site you can find the model number of your printer, as well as what "number" inks should work with it.

good ink on ink
By D. Lee
Better packaging, cheaper than buying separately, HP- quality, and delivery in just a few days... anything better than that?

Make sure you are getting new cartridges!!
By JWink
When buying this, make sure these are OEM and new products and not the outdated and remanufactured type or you will be sending them back like I did.
