Rated 5 out of 5 by Bhaskar from Great Value. HP original cartridges work the best on HP printer I have. I had tried cheap refill brands before but they stopped working after half their life and created so many headaches...that I ended up wasting money instead of saving them. HP cartridges have given me best value, consistency and performance so far.

Rated 5 out of 5 by SSH74 from Great quality of original cartridge I previously used to order HP56 cartridges for my home printer from Amazon. Last time when I installed a new cartridge, it just didn't work: the printer simply couldn't recognize it. Unfortunately, I couldn't send the product back to Amazon because it laid on my shelf for a couple of months before I tried it, so I had to just dispose of it. Next time I ordered the same cartridge directly from hp.com. Same price, free 2-day delivery, and perfect quality of the original product!

Rated 5 out of 5 by xenajake from The Reliable Place to Buy Cartridges It never occurred to me to go straight to HP for cartridges. After disappointing purchases on other sites, (expired cartridges, ink that is not lasting etc) I went directly to HP for cartridges. The price was right and quick delivery (free too) What took me so long to figure this out??

Rated 5 out of 5 by Jimbones73 from Great Quality This ink never fails to fulfill my requirements in printing whether photographs of quality document reprinting. Thank you HP. Sadly it seems another ink is no longer available and that is HP58, a black that my printer requires for special photo printing. Unfortunately for me that's the way way it goes.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Nice Nana from Zippety Do Da I bought an ink cartridge for my printer directly from HP. The next day shipping was free! They must have sent it on a zip line because it zipped here fast. Zippety Do Da! The cartridge went into service immediately for a Christmas newsletter. It produced perfect results. The only downside is that the cartridge cost a lot, as they always do. Ink should not cost so much.
