More ink per $ rating: 5
Well worth the extra money for so much more ink. It fits my HP Deskjet D4260 just fine.

It fits!!!! rating: 5
Before ordering this I asked all my computer-type friends if the size would fit in my printer. No one knew & your ad doesn't say. On a hunch I ordered it. Quickly arrived & in great shape. IT FITS!!! I cheered.

Don't Order Print Carts Any Other Way rating: 5
This print cartidge is the same HP brand that everyone else is selling for almost three times the price. At $4 a gallon having it dropped at your front door is almost like stealing!!!!

Bulk value rating: 5
It's worth purchasing the XL version of the HP 74 print cartridge, rather than the standard size. It's three times the size of the standard one, and doesn't cost three times as much.
Also, you can often find package deals including the color (75) XL cartridge and the black XL cartridge for around $60. Buying individual regular size cartridges just isn't a wise idea, considering they often cost around $30. (why buy two regulars for $60 when you can buy two XL's for the same price?)
Just make sure to buy a NEW cartridge, not a remanufactured one. Choose a seller with a high rating and low prices. I purchased a package deal recently through ANTOnline, and was amazed with how fast it came (using only regular shipping).

An oversized cartridge for people with over-sized needs rating: 5
With 18mL it should print out about 750 pages. I have no idea if the numbers I had quoted to me, though, are right. The problem is the little bar that appears whenever you print something hasn't even gone down 25% and I've had this cartridge for almost two months. Its definitely a real wallet saver for me since I'm a student in college and the nearest store selling cartridges is as far away as the nearest cartridge world, which I personally love but haven't gotten to see a lot of recently. Both would've required bus commutes, but the 74XL (which is noticeably sticks out farther than the regular 74 and weighs a whole lot more) has not failed me yet. For now I would encourage anyone lucky enough to have a printer that works with an 18mL cartridge like this to get one. And anyone in the market for a new printer should seriously consider checking to make sure there's isn't only compatible with a dinky 5mL one that will get you around 200 pages before going poof.
