Have owned several. Current one is the 5400 series. Prints okay but is low quality. HP 2100 series or higher are much better but more expensive. I own both. I use the Lexmark for mostly scanning to PDF. The Lexmark Cartridges are way over priced for what they do: Regular one like the 28 gives about 175 printed pages ($18) while the expanded one like the 35 gives you 500 printed pages ($28). That is a very low quantity for the money, plus they are low quality pages when printed not crisp. I will not buy another one. I will buy HP printer and get me a solo scanner that also copies. But for a low budget and unprofessional home requirements these Lexmark printers and cartridges are just okay. You can do better if you can afford an HP. The long term lifecycle cost of owning an HP would probably be lower and more satisfying. Plus the Lexmark Black 28 cartridges are hard to find except online, and online they are not cheap and you must pay shipping too. Not a great deal long term as you must buy new cartridges all the time too frequently. And the printers cannot stand the test of time and use and must be replaced sooner than others. I am tired of going to Staples, Walmart etc and being told that the Black 28 is sold out since there is such a high demand since the cartridges give out so early. NOT GOOD. Avoid Lexmark unless that is all you can afford or do not have a requirement for better printing. But be prepared to be nickled and dimed to death over repeat expenses.

I was able to use a Amazon gift card for this purchase. I did so, but after reviewing other sites, I found out that this was the cheapest price I could find, even without a gift card. I always use the brand name inks because of how they are made. The manufactures of printer inks all have different formulas for their products. A lot of people don't realize that ink has to be made a certain way, with certain pigments and dyes for the make of the printer. So, in that way the jets on the print head won't deteriorate,or become damaged by a bad product. or, a sub-standard product.I said all the that, to basically say, that this was a good deal, at a fair price.

I rarely use this cartridge but have to replace the cartridge every month or so. Printer software constantly reminds me to reorder a new cartridges. I have explored having the cartridge refilled and Walgreens would not refill it. I tried refilling the cartridge myself and the printer software would not let me reuse the cartridge. The print quality is good but the cost is too high to continue using this printer. I will be replacing my Lexmark printer for a Kodak. I don't think I will but this brand again.Honest reviews on Lexmark 18C1428 Return Program Print Cartridge Black
When you bought a Lexmark printer you bought a piece of ripoff garbage, whose only function is to market low-production ink cartridges. Ink cartridges are where the money is in all these inkjet printers/faxes/copiers, regardless of the manufacturer. That's why the manufacturers are virtually giving away the machines.You'll get less than 50 copies from this grossly overpriced cartridge. That's well more than 40 cents per copy of nothing but black ink. And if you don't use it regularly, it'll dry up and produce no print at all, in which case you might get ONE copy from it.
The companies manufacturing these inkjet machines are run by criminals who are systematically defrauding the public. The manufacture of inkjet printers should be prohibited by federal law.

I use this cartridge in an X2500 all in one printer. The prints are of an acceptable quality. But what I find to be annoying is that the cartridge stops printing when it 'thinks' that it is out of ink, and the printer then forces you to use the color cartridge instead to 'complete a print'.I much prefer HP's method, where you decide when the prints are no longr of an acceptable quality. With this cartridge in this printer, you will never know if you are throwing away ink... And after a while, this could add up to quite a bit given the cost of these cartridges.
