COPIED FROM ANOTHER REVIEW... GREAT INFORMATION, STOPPED ME BUYING THE WRONG CARTRIDGE :)

Buyer Beware!!! HP 62 Black & Colour Starter Cartridges Low Yield, Go For The HP 62XL High Yield Cartridges!!

When Hp sell you a new printer they supply it with a Hp 62 black and a Hp 62 colour starter cartridge. Well these cartridges only hold 5mls black (200 pages) & 5.5mls colour (165 pages) ink in them which is written in really really small writing on the back of the cartridge boxes. For the proper higher yield cartridges what you really need is the Hp 62XL black which holds 15mls of ink (600 Pages) and for the colour you should be using the Hp 62XL cartridge which holds 14mls of ink (415 Pages). Hp make their money out of selling you a very good printer (Envy 5640 E) but then sell you cartridges that have hardly any ink in them (62 start cartridges). Don't fall into the Hp ink con trap always buy the full size XL versions which only cost a little bit more but have three or four times the amount of ink in them..

What I do now is get a HP British premium compatible 62XL maximum yield 19ml black and 21ml colour twin pack for only £29.99 plus vat with free next day delivery from a company called advantage-online, That's the best deal that I have found on the internet at this moment in time and they work very well in my HP Envy printer. I did try a few other companies selling 62XL compatibles but I found them to be rubbish. Hope this information helps!.

Question 2

Is this compatible with HP Envy 7640?

Accepted Answer

Yes. That is my model & definitely worked for me.

Question 3

how much ink am i paying £37+ for, anyone know?

Accepted Answer

There are 12ml of ink in the HP62 XL Black cartridge. In comparison, the HP62 Black only includes 4ml of ink.

Question 4

What's the difference between 62 and 62xl I bought the Hp envy 3640 all in one? When I search it came up with both, sorry have head injury., thank you
