Review on πŸ–¨οΈ High-Quality Replacement Toner Cartridge 4-Pack for HP Color Pro M255/MFP M283 Printers by Jonathan Partridge

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great print quality, but get some metal tweezers.

The print quality of these cartridges appears to be OEM but at a much more attractive price. They fit exactly like the originals but note that you will need to remove and install the HP chip from your old cartridges. This is a little tricky, and I suggest getting a pair of long medical or hobby tweezers (not curved end tweezers for home use), preferably metal, with a serrated inner surface for gripping. Hemostasis or tweezers will also work, just don't break the chip. Work in a well-lit area, follow the instructions, and be careful not to drop the chip - it's small. Also, don't forget to point it in the right direction. On our first install, one rotated 180 degrees and that stops the whole thing from printing. Note: I just read what I wrote and it sounds a little menacing - in reality the first one lasted 10 minutes and the rest about 2 minutes. When you look at the cost of OEM cartridges, it's obvious that they're worth it. I will buy them again.

Pros
