Review on HP 128A CE320AD Toner Cartridges - Black for LaserJet CM1415, CP1525. by Diamond Lee

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Three reasons why I buy original branded toner

1. Brilliant design (originally from Canon) is that critical parts of the devices - the hardware, not the software - are all in the cassette. This includes the drum, the corona wire and the toner itself. Basically every time I change cartridges I have a new printer. Why do I prefer Refurbished? Compared to other systems, this is the smoothest paper path, fewest paper jams, and hassle free printing system I've ever used.2. These cartridges are safely filled with toner. That means it takes much longer. I've printed an incredible number of pages with each cartridge and they stay sharp and clear to the end. I keep walking by when HP starts urging me to replace the toner. (How many pages? I think I go 10-15 stacks between cartridges, so maybe 5000+ pages? I never check that.) The price per page gets a lot cheaper than cheaper printers over time, and it is not even finish higher for lower printer. first box of paper.3. It s cheap. I know remanufactured cartridges are even cheaper, but the cost per page is already so low and the quality so high that I see no need to sacrifice my results. Did you know that laser printers not only have higher resolution, but are also much cheaper per page than any other type of printer? (Although they're supposedly rated at 600 dpi, they're an effective resolution compared to offset printing at 1200 dpi. Why that's not the subject of this review. Third-party toners may (or may not!) have a slightly lower resolution, but you will never notice. It has to do with the dry grains that create the image.) I've been using laser printers for almost 30 years and this particular color laser for over 10 years. Buying cartridges isn't a big deal, although I still wish they were cheaper. A NOTICE. I've also often bought aftermarket cartridges, particularly for other printers, and I usually take empty cartridges to my local remanufacturing shop instead of shipping them back to HP. If that's your preference, I have full respect for that. I'm just explaining why a frugal guy like me still buys expensive HP equipment.

Pros
  • What's in the box: HP 128A toner cartridges (2 black)
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine
