Customer Reviews

Maybe not 2,500 pages...
These are good cartridges. Well packed. You have to remove 2 protective strips before use. A tape that you pull out and a black paper. Then drop them in and all is ready to go.
One thing. The weight of these cartridges are about 102 grams more than the empty one. That amount of toner is supposed to print 2,000 pages as rated. I think this toner will print closer to 2,000 pages and not 2,500.
This is based on actual weights of the empty (no longer printing) and the new one.
Otherwise, it has been fine so far.

A compatible cartridge that's better than OEM at 1/3 the cost
I was leery about buying a "compatible" toner cartridge after seeing all of the bad reviews on similar products. The only difference I can detect between this and the original hp cartridges is that this one delivers a better quality print job and is supposed to yield more pages. At less than a third of the cost of the HP and the good quality I will buy these again.

2 Pack Exclusive high page yield (2500/ea) Brand New HP Q2612A compatible toner cartridge
I appreciate the 2 pack high page yield capacity. However, while the print is OK for everyday use, it leaves a light gray smear down the left side of each page printed out. This problem make the product poor quality. This is the first time in more than 5 years that I have ever had this print problem with my hp LaserJet 3030. All the previous cartridges purchased from Amazon.com have produced high quality printing. This cartridge only produces fair to poor printing due to the gray line smear down the left side of each page printed out so far. I wanted to wait a month before I rated the cartridge to see if the smear would clear up but it has not.

Do you have any suggestions to eliminate the smear line? Should I try the second cartridge to check its performance also before I return the cartridges for refund? Please forward a return label for the package. Please let me know what you you would prefer me to do.
