Summary: What software supports this well?
Review: I've enjoyed my HP printer -- it uses the 51645A and the cartridge has been awesome. All I need to refine is my selection of photo editing software. Great product -- needs more ink for the dollar -- but what else is new!

Summary: Does the job well
Review: I've had the HP DeskJet 722C for over a year now. I have been happy with the performance of the black inkjet cartridge, and have only had to replace it twice. I don't have especially heavy print needs; I am a computer professional, however, and I estimate that I am perhaps an average printer user. The ink dries quickly, and I have not had the "smudge" complaint that I had heard from a friend (who told me AFTER I purchased this printer)

Summary: Low on Ink
Review: It does not have much ink in the cartarage compaired to the price. If I need to print very many pages at one time it goes dry. I used up one in two and one half weeks doing a research paper. That is too expensive.

Summary: Great Cartridge. RECOMMENDED!
Review: Let's face it, how much can you really say about an ink cartridge? Using this on my HP970cxi produces very good print quality. The biggest problem I've had with the cartridges has been a tendency to dry up more quickly than they should. A couple of them have gone dry far too soon after purchase both in terms of time and the number of sheets printed. Fortunately, most of them hold up for a reasonable period of time. The bottom line is that you need ink cartridges to use your printer and this is a good cartridge even if it isn't perfect.

Summary: A good Product - Very Reliable!
Review: Some reviewers complained that this cartridge has a low ink supply. I suppose that may be true for someone running a very active office or home-office with very demanding print needs. However, in my Deskjet 882C (an excellent printer) used at home with moderate printing (in a home-office), these cartridges last just fine. I have been using them in my 882C since March, '99 and am only on my 4th one - 4 in 16 months is not too bad. But even more importantly, is the excellent performance: clear black text, never smudged or faded, very professional looking - on practically any paper. A good, safe, relaible product.

Summary: Why I do not attempt to store inkjet cartridges
Review: The cartridge supplied with the HP Deskjet 932C doesn't hold much ink, so when I purchased the printer 3 months ago, I bought a 2-pack of 45A -- I hate to run out of ink. I just ran out of ink in the small cartridge, and sadly found that both 45A cartridges had completely dried out. I sure wasted a lot of color ink trying to decide what was wrong! I went back to Office Depot where I purchased the printer, and was advised that I don't use enough ink to warrant buying a 2-pack because they are almost sure to dry up before I would need them. So I bought a single... and voila, the printer is back to its normal wonderful self... Yes, the cartridges that dried out were still under warranty with both the store and HewlettPackard, so I have been reimbursed.
