Review on 🌼 HP 951 Yellow Ink Cartridge for HP OfficeJet 8600, OfficeJet Pro 251dw, 276dw, 8100, 8610, 8620, 8630 Series - Eligible for Instant Ink, CN052AN by Matthew Harris

Love the printer but raising the price of ink is the worst consumer scam

Price increased from 16.97 to 22.97 - a huge 35% discount. Outrageous! For a full ink set (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black XL), the price went from about $85 to $111 before tax in just over a year. I understand that using third party inks can save me money, but the reviews are very mixed. Also, HP's firmware reports go to great lengths to make the replacement process difficult or impossible, and I also don't want to risk clogging the printhead due to a bad or leaking ink cartridge. The OfficeJet 8600 All-in-One works great, best ever (yet) - but it stinks! If ink price increases continue, I will likely switch to Epson's high-capacity strategy.

Pros
  • Package Contents: 1 New Genuine HP 951 Yellow Ink Cartridge (CN052AN)
