Worst printer owned. Ink expensive doesn't last!
I was without my printer for a couple of weeks sinceI couldn't even print black and white because the yellow was empty. The yellow was out at all the local stores and Amazon. Before that the printer was down because of one of the other inks were out. The ink goes down fast I haven't been printing much but all the inks keep going down fast. The printer is currently down now. I just bought an Epson printer, ink cheaper and larger tanks.The HP was a more expensive printer, but was down more than up. I will never buy another HP.

Fair price and fast free shipping
This cartridge arrived in three business days and shipping was free. The cost was comparable to what you would pay for a genuine OEM cartridge elsewhere. Also, the cartridge came in unopened OEM packaging with a good expiration date. I haven't put this cartridge in my printer yet; but my current yellow ink level is very low.

The One Place to Find the Ink I need
HP 940 inks are no longer easily found in office supply stores or online, so it's good to know that you can still find them at HP and wait a few days longer for them to arrive

Avoid HP hardware
Bought new heads and cartridges at manual direction, $180, machine keeps printing test page after every page printed, wasting color ink. No support because of machine age.

This product does not last
With all the replacement cartridges I have received in this color, there seems to be a shortage of ink.
I replaced an identical cartridge with this one and this one shows up that it needs to be replaced. This is the third time this has happened with this color. I do not have this problem with the replacement of the other colors that my printer requires. Why this color?

Good ink, but expensive!
HP ink always performs well. My biggest objection is the cost. Like most OEMs, HPs ink is expensive. I always wait for a sale to purchase my cartridges. Then the ink is a little more reasonable.

Should last longer
This applies to all 940XL cartridges except black. They do not seem to last all that much longer than ordinary (non-xl) cartridges, so I'm not sure they are worth the extra cost. I wish you would label all cartridges with amount of contents, so we could verify the difference. You used to do this for earlier printer cartridges.

940 XL high print capacity is not true
The 940 XL high print capacity is not true ... my last three replacement cartridges ( 940 XL) produced less than 600 copies ... I'm terribly disappointed with HP's claim that 1400 copies are generated with each XL cartridge .

Very poor performance
I only order printer ink cartrdiges from the HP Store. I ordered 940XL in black, cyan, magenta, and yellow on August 8 and installed August 13. This is a work only printer (black print only). I printed a total of 56 pages and printer stopped working showing out of ink. Why pay the extra $$ for XL cartridges when you only get 56 pages of print out of the cartridges?

Great Way to Buy Ink
I use an abnormal amount of yellow ink in my printing and found myself with two of every other color cartridge and had run out of yellow. Went to HP's website and there I could order just a yellow cartridge. Hooray!! And, it appeared the next morning with free shipping. What could be better!

The Best Out There
These inks in the XL format and the printer that uses them are the best out there in my opinion. I print my own cards in my small business about-small-dogs.com and I can go through a lot of ink.
The Canon Pixma printers produce a lovely product but at almost double the cost. I think the HP Officejet does just as good a job.

More expensive than oil.
The 940XL cartridge is of good quality, but is so expensive that I am seriously considering buying cartridges elsewhere. For the amount of ink that you receive in these cartridges, if you don't print numerous items every day it would be advantageous to go with a laser printer. You waste more ink with all the head cleaning cycles.

Thumbs down on 940 yellow
This isn't so much a "thumbs down" review as a notice of inconsistency in the production (or product control) of two different cartridges. One lasted over 1,000 pages, the other less than 500.

Good but too expensive
I love HP products and have never been disappointed with any of them. However, ink prices are simply too high. I am tempted to use the refill kits, but that concerns me so I have not done so. Also, several dealers (Office Depot, Office Max, Staples) offer a reward for returning used ink cartridges but you do not. I would suggest doing something other than sending a bag to mail it back to you. But, as always I am happy with my HP product.

HP 940XL
A good product. Separating the ink from the heads was a very good idea! The design of the carts makes them much easier to handle. It would help to have a version that contained much more ink to last longer, like the black cartridge. There needs to be a "Photo Gray" version as well for black and white photography. It would help to have some "mixing balls" inside to better mix the ink when the cartridge is shaken, as per directions. Also, the ink is still rather easily washed off in water. An additive is needed to react with cellulose in the papers to make the ink "bullet proof" (much like the new check writers inks). The newer "proof" inks can't be washed or bleached off by any means! Although good for photography, the inks need to be somewhat more vivid. All in all, four out of five stars.

Printer ink cartridges
I had to order a single 'yellow' ink cartridge direct from hp because no office store carries single cartridges. It annoys me that when all I want to do is print a black only copy of a black only page, that my printer won't work if even just one color cartridge is out of ink. I do appreciate being able to buy the extended ink, long life cartridge.

I got my ink cartridge quickly, safely packaged and delivered, and am able to print without exporting the work to the printer via thumbdrive or remote print command--and there's nothing like being able to have the product when and where I need it. The "return" envelope enclosed with the package was especially thoughtful in case there was a problem with the order. The whole issue was handled responsively, economically, and personally/professionally. I appreciate all of that!
