I like the way the bottlle pours into the reservoir in the printer. There is no mess because of the tip remaining closed until it is engaged with the top of the reservoir. It begins printing the color immediately. The color seems true and it works well. It isn't nearly as expensive as the cartridges and toner I had to purchase for my other HP printers.

Easy to Install

I bought this just so I have back up. I am still using the original ink from when I purchased the printer 1.5 yrs ago. This printer uses very little ink.

See review for blue ink

The problems I'm complaing about is actually with the single black in bottoles. My black in on my tank printer was empty. After installing a new bottle following instructions we notced the black in under the printer. I assume the amount in the bottle was too much for the ink resivoir and overflowed. It did clean up a lot easier than we expected. In other words it did not stain the area underneath the printer at all. It is possible it was operator error. Maybe the printer in fact was not all the way empty. I do not know that answer. I am 80 so maybe it was just me that messed up?

See my take on the successful delivery of ink to my Smart Tank 7000 Easy no drips, Othere bottles Not Needed now are kept upright on a shelf. Thank YOU HP

Even with high quality print paper and applying the noted settings, the color contrast does not appear in print as it does on screen. Notably "blue" is a more muted blue in appearance and "purple" is much more subtle, "red" less rich, even with bold, that appears on screen. Disappointing contrast on new printer so the print heads are new and tanks are full.

Kind of difficult to install. Have to turn them upside down.
