Makes finding the matching one a bit of a job. --- End quote --- How about reading the manual? >:D And some websites make it simple by allowing to select the printer for which you want to buy a cartridge. --- End quote --- I just opened the tray and found the number I needed. HP 216A :-DD Was doing the search to find the prices for replying here and just used the printer model number and google returned the one I linked. To bad, definitely not the correct ones :palm: The correct compatible ones are 150 euros. But hey still better then the original HP ones at > 240 euros. Don't know if I will ever need them. |

That's $0.02 per page. :-// --- End quote --- I have a 15-ish year old Brother laser printer that I still use. You can't beat the cost of ownership of that. :popcorn: |

My 15 year old Canon (7 inks: CcMyYKK — CMY + light cyan and magenta, photo black, and pigment black) prints an A4 photo in around 4 minutes. |
