FAQs

What printers are compatible with the HP 950XL/951XL 4-pack?

This multipack is compatible with specific HP OfficeJet Pro e-All-in-One printers, including models 8660, 8630, 8600 series, 8100, 276 dw, 251 dw, 8640, 8610, 8620, 8616, 8615, and 8625.

What is the page yield for these cartridges?

The HP 950XL black cartridge has a yield of up to 2300 pages, and the HP 951XL color cartridges (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow) each yield up to 1500 pages under typical print conditions.

Are these original HP cartridges?

Yes, these are Original HP ink cartridges, designed to ensure quality, reliability, and consistent performance with your HP printer.

Can I use these cartridges if only one color is low?

This is a 4-pack containing black, cyan, magenta, and yellow. You should replace cartridges as they run low to maintain optimal print quality. If one color is low, you would replace that specific cartridge from the multipack.

What does 'High (XL) Yield' mean?

High (XL) Yield means the cartridges contain more ink than standard cartridges, allowing you to print more pages before needing a replacement. This offers a better value for frequent printing.

How do I ensure my prints don't smudge?

These cartridges use pigment-based ink, which is designed to be smudge-resistant and dry quickly, making your prints more durable for everyday use and handling.

Where can I recycle used HP ink cartridges?

Original HP cartridges are designed for easy recycling. You can look for HP Planet Partners recycling programs in your region or check with local electronics recycling facilities.

Troubleshooting

Printer not recognizing new ink cartridge

Remove the cartridge and reinsert it, ensuring it clicks into place. Check for any protective tape or tabs that may still be attached. Clean the electrical contacts on the cartridge and inside the printer with a dry, lint-free cloth and try again. Ensure you are using a genuine HP cartridge compatible with your printer model.

Print quality is poor (streaks, faded colors, missing text)

Run the printer's built-in head cleaning utility. Check ink levels and replace any low or empty cartridges. Ensure the correct paper type is selected in the print settings. If problems persist, perform a printer head alignment.

Low ink warnings despite new cartridges

Ensure the protective tape has been completely removed from the cartridge. Restart the printer. Some printers may display a low ink warning when a cartridge is nearly empty, even if it's a new high-yield cartridge; this is often normal and print quality is maintained until the ink is depleted.
