Hp ink

Hi,
I have been searching around this forum for a good hour, and cant find what i need.
Can someone recommend the retailer or any deals on original HP ink cartridge, please?

I need 343 tricolour and the black one.
I have bought refills and something similar before, but it looks my printer only accepts original ink cartridges.

thank you in advance

    When I had an HP, I always found the original carts cheapest at Asda.

    Just put my first non-hp cartridge in my printer -not the same model as yours, admittedly.

    It told me it was not an original in quite a forceful way but after I clicked through that, and another couple of threatening pop-ups, it settled down and printed OK.

    Next time I used the printer, it told me the cartridge was a counterfeit but then let me print and, third time onwards, it seems to have given up the protests altogether.

    I suggest you persevere with the replacements as the cost saving is worth it. The only disadvantage seems to be a non-accurate ink-level reading.

    343 / 338 are small capacity (7ml / 11ml). Use 344 / 339 (14ml / 21ml) which are not mush more expensive. Check they are suitable first of course. I usually get mine from Ebay, Amazon, 7Dayshop or Play whichever is cheapest at the time

    Ebay, Cartridge King. Sometimes Viking do deals and sometimes Tesco (although they try a lot)

    Staples are doing a fantastic deal. they will give you £2 of every old HP cartridge up to 5 per transaction.

    So that is a possible £10 off a cartridge.

    I bought 2 HP350 today cost me £2.50 each.
