Digital camera reviews of Original HP 02 Ink Cartridges Combo-Pack (5 Color Cartridges) in Retail Packaging
Digital camera Review: Excellent photo quality...all ink is overpriced
Summary: 5 Stars
I've been using this ink in a basic HP Photosmart C6280 printer for the last couple of years. I wasn't expecting too much from the printer when I bought it but I needed something to do copying, scanning, standard printing and to print photos and the printer was on sale at Office Depot.
The HP 02 inks do very well in photo printing. Using HP Premium and Premium Plus glossy papers, I've found the colors to be natural. Based on HP's reports, prints made with this ink on their Premium Plus photo paper should have a very long life without fading. I don't know--it would take a few decades before this is proven one way or the other. I do know that I have made color negatives, slides and transparencies as well as having on hand custom-made and drugstore-quality photographs that have faded significantly over the past three decades. It wouldn't be hard for the 02 inks to out perform these results.
All inkjet inks are overpriced. I read once that it would cost several thousand dollars to fill the fuel tank of a mid-sized SUV with inkjet ink. So price-wise, it's a given that inkjet inks will be costly. The 02 inks have at least been available and convenient for my use. I can walk across the street from my office to the Walmart Supercenter and buy them. For about the same price or a little less, I can order them online from Amazon with free shipping. Availability as well as quality are both important to me when it comes to printing inks and papers.
Digital camera Review: Excellent service and quality product
Summary: 5 Stars
Amazon had the best pricing with exceptional shipping turn around time. I will continue to order from Amazon.Digital camera Review: Expect the best
Summary: 5 Stars
I have learned to expect the best from Hewlett-Packard, and they have never disappointed me. I live in a remote area (2-hour round trip to any major computer supply vender in any directiom) where few computer supplies are available, and Amazon delivers reliably every time, saving time and gasoline.Digital camera Review: Good
Summary: 5 Stars
Normally my laptop will bring to the HP site when my printer is low on ink to buy new cartridges. When I was trying to purchase new ones it was giving me a little bit of a hard time so I checked out amazon and found out they were actually cheaper here so it worked out great!Digital camera Review: Good
Summary: 4 Stars
I'm always weary of buying ink from outside the actual printer company because of sketchy ink levels (like half empty cartridges) but they seem to be fine. :) It was a good deal.
