Review on HP Cartridge CC640WN Deskjet Photosmart by Jake Davies

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Current HP 60 black cartridges do not align properly

I've been using the same HP C4795 printer for over 10 years and the problems only started in 2021. And not even because of the printer! First, because Adobe Flash has been retired. This time the HP 60 black cartridge (both standard and XL) is misaligned so the black text has a shadow/phantom print. First I tried the XL bought from Staples, now the standard HP 60 from Revain and I'm convinced that the XL isn't just a fluke. Plus, reading online, I don't seem to be the only one. The print quality is just not acceptable. This is bad. I said it. Now I'm looking, according to a stranger on the internet, to get an expired HP 60 cartridge to try and use instead. Let's see what it will bring in the near future. But in the meantime, if you want an HP 60 (XL), stay away from what HP is throwing out of their factories right now. It's just a waste of money and HP should be ashamed (but from what I've read, this is normal for HP). But you know, this is the internet for you.

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • Obsolete model
