The ink is good. It looks good on the paper, and does not dry out, and does not clog the printhead, when the printer sits unused for a week. Some lower quality inks will do that.

I will not give more than 3 stars to any printer ink cartridge that has built in marketing controls (and most do). I do not like the built in expiration date (cartridge won't work in printer after date expiration, and therefor can not refill), and the cost is high (though on Amazon, cheaper than retail). I understand most printer companies sell their printers cheap, and make their money by selling proprietary ink cartridges, and I can see that this is also advantageous to the user, if the printer is replaced every two years or so.

As a general rant against all printer companies, I don't like being forced into buying ink in this manner, like being forced to buy a particular brand of gasoline for an automobile. But, if you have an HP printer, this ink works very well in it.

You may receive an email from HP on 20% off sale. BEWARE the offer is good for 5 days. The information is buried in the very small print about when the sale expires. This is very deceptive. Consider this when buying an HP. Deceptive advertising.

Great price for this cartridge. I have two HP Officejet Pro 8600's so cost is a consideration and Amazon seems to always come through. TKS

Honest reviews on HP 951XL Yellow Officejet Ink Cartridge CN048AN#140

This is a good place to get these refills. In this day and age when the printer is a freebie it is the cost of the ink that matters. These were good value. I had tried the off brand and found them to be a waste of money as they wouldn't work without constant issues that the printer objected to. These are no problem.

If you want your ink to last this is the ticket. Comparable price for extra capacity. Now I need black ink.
