Just thought you ought to know. These cartridges are designed to print the 60 sheets of paper it comes with and no more. In reality I have managed to squeeze about 70 6x4 prints from these cartridges. This is less than a full cartridge can manage, still excellent value though.

Is that 100% right? If so, I will cancel my order as it oesnt say that on the site, just says HP 57 cartridge, so you would think it's the same 17ml. I've never known a HP 57 to be anything other than that.

If its true, dont bother buying!!

I can usually get well over 115 6x4s on a normal cartridge and around 70 on one of these. I still buy these cartridge/paper packs because they are still better value than the cartridge by itself.

Someone actually took the time to confirm the amount of ink in these and an 'HP customer sevices person' told them that they were full and the same cartridge as the normal hp57. My tests prove conclusive though:p

Also I bet HP would really sell them this cheap if they were brimming.....

"Oh yes" said the HP customer services person "it is definetley full"........yeah sure!

I think this page at HP confirms that it is just enough ink for the paper pack supplied

doozeruk

Ok my bad!

Thought I had found a bargain there. Oh well, don't spose there is such a thing in the world of these cartridges. I better cancel my order I suppose!
