I don't what other people are doing wrong, I put my printing on draft quality, meaning the ink isn't slightly lighter, and easily got 500 pages of printing done. Same with the colour printer.

It only printed about 100 pages, there is nowhere close to 300 pages.

But when I do, I'll keep in mind the small print on your page stating

Page yield: 300 pages
Page yield based on 5% coverage of an A4 page

5% coverage of an A4 page? Any text document is surely to have a coverage of at least 40%?? Hello, how are you might be 5%. HP surely you can do better?

If No star was an option it’d be just that..Disgusting and disappointed to say the least, I had purchased both 65XL Black n Tri as the One that came with ran out as it does and on purchasing these cartridges no way in hell did it print as much as it states it would highly disappointed HP sort it out... The printer is fine its these cartridges that are the disappointing thing about the brand

Item supplied was as required and received in a timely manner

Not good value for money. Did nowhere near the 300 pages it claims to do!! Extremely disappointed.

Wow, i thought it was just me but looking at the posts I guess not. I have bearly done 20pages as per the specification on A4 and now out of ink. It was an XL cartridge too which states i should get 300 pages. Come on HP.....either put in the correct amount of ink to print the amount of pages you state or change what you state. It comes under false information and advertising as far as I'm aware. I wont waste money getting the XL if they run out that quick. Epson tank is looking good about now.

the printer is ideal for what I have to do, small and compact but I agree with other reviews the ink ran out well before I would have thought. I don't even want to give it a star.

I only use the draft setting on my printer now as these cartridges run out insanely quickly. The HP Printer I have is very good, but these cartridges are not. Had I known that I would not have bought this printer model.

To be fair would not even give a star. I did not get 300 pages at all. Be lucky if I did 100. Pretty peeved to be honest especially when have 4 in the house that are students and constantly need to be printing. Be cheaper to print at local library.

I thought that I must have done more than I'd thought, but when I worked it out, I hadn't ! Mine run out very fast indeed, and I have done nothing like as many pages as they claim to do. 50 pages would be stretching it.

If I ever buy them again, I will keep a record of the pages.

I have done NOTHING like the number of pages. Even if some of the coloured pages took a lot of ink, (let's say 4 times as much as they estimate) I have had very poor value. It would be much cheaper to have things commercially printed.

There must be so little ink in these cartridges, they run out so quickly! And my printer is not under much pressure. Had I known this before purchasing the printer I would not have gone down this road. HP are ripping us off for sure.

I also find these run out very fast. I only print about 50 pages a week and am replacing every fortnight. Something isn't right with these ones.

these cartridges seem to be used up very fast lasting only a 2 week period very disappointing as i am using 1 per month very costly
