Ink for HP Printer
The Hewlett Packard Company or HP as it is better known is the largest printer technology business in the world. As you would expect from a large company like HP, they produce a variety of printers for every need from home use to the requirements of a large office. They also manufacture the toner and ink needed to run their printers albeit at a heavy cost to the consumer.
One of their biggest selling black ink toner is the Q2612A laser toner, otherwise known as the 12A, this toner will produce great reports in black and white and the printers are often seen as the workhorse of any office.
However, it is essential that low cost toner ink for most of the HP printers is available to help businesses save money in todays current climate. HP printers are listed in groups depending on the need of the end user:
LaserJet Printers: HP LaserJet printers produce high-speed, high volume and extremely high quality laser printing in colour and black and white. For example the HP Colour Laserjet 1600 uses the HP toner ink Q6000A, Q6001A, Q6002A, and Q6003A. The laserjet range are the smallest laser printers made by HP and as such are a quiet and compact model, ideal for offices where space is at a premium. Another popular model is the HP Laserjet 1000W, this monochrome printer uses the laser toner Q7115A and Q7115X. The toner cartridge Q7115A has an ink volume of approximately 2000 pages; a more economical cartridge is the laser toner Q7115X that has a page capacity of approximately 3500 pages. The printer model HP Color Laserjet CP1210 uses four colours including the black; HP CB540A laser toner, CB541A, CB542A and CB543A. The black laser toner cartridges give approximately 2200 pages at 5% coverage and the remaining colour approximately 1400 pages.
Deskjet Printers: The HP Deskjet printer models are perfect for everyday monochrome text printing and also give great results when printing photographs. The fastest printing Deskjet printer will print up to 36 pages per minute and some of the printers in this group of printers are mostly built from recycled plastic. The HP Deskjet 1000 printer uses the HP301XL ink cartridge, this is available as a black and a colour cartridge. The HP301XL, Hewlett Packard code; HP CH564EE ink cartridge comes in a standard size with 6ml of ink while the remanufactured high capacity version of the cartridge (HP301XL), comes with 15ml of ink! The HP301XL ink cartridge in black again comes in two sizes; the HP original black cartridge HP CH563EE has 8ml of ink and the remanufactured cartridge has 15ml of ink. There are great savings to be made buying the compatible HP 301XL ink cartridge as well as almost 100% more ink in the cartridges.
The HP Deskjet 1600C printer is another very popular printer that uses a combination of colour and black cartridges. The colour cartridge is the HP51645A ink cartrtidge otherwise known as the HP45 ink cartridge. The ink volume is 45ml in the remanufactured version and that’s just a 5% increase on the original ink HP cartridge. However, the savings are in the price and this can be as much as 100% on the OEM cost.

HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus Reviews
We decide to look into the reviews for the HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus and provide feedback for our customers on the overall positivity of this exciting printer. The HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus scores an impressive 9.3 out of 10 on most review sites in the UK and will surely take a big share of our toner and ink sales.
- This printer is well built and designed allowing easy access to inkjet cartridges – it has its own dedicated opening to access the ink cartridge rather than having to lift the scanner cover. The printer has an excellent scanner with equally good e tools.
- It’s very economical on toner ink and is fast printing with duplex available if required.
- The scanner is available for OCR as well as PDF and jpeg and is very simple to set up. It works well with Mac and PC. The e-print facility is extremely useful and it has a large capacity paper tray.
- It is labelled as an office printer but will serve just as well for a home user. It is almost 50 per cent cheaper than a laser printer. The black ink cartridges will print up to 2500 pages and the colour ink cartridge up to 1200 pages.
- It is capable of printing on card which is something that not every inkjet printer will do. Some would say ‘everything you would expect from a HP printer- fast and reliable’.
So overall, the printer gets very favourable reviews across the UK. Perhaps the biggest saving is considering using remanufactured toner and ink when buying a printer as this is the biggest outlay you are going to have during the life of the printer.
