Photosmart B8550 don't XL ink cartridges require the purchase of a larger car to keep them?

Photosmart B8550

Envy, I decided to buy the XL size cartridges because printing photographs uses ink so fast. But looking at the regular size cartridges, installed in the current cage, I don't see how something bigger can fit in there!

Which brings the question: do I need to buy a XL wagon to keep? And if so, where can I find them for sale, as so far, I have not found their...

Or... is this just HP does not have regular ink to full capacity, and the difference represented by an XL is simply it is actually full of ink, rather than only partially completed as in the case of a regular ink cartridge?

Thank you!

I said cart but meant the "printhead" that holds the ink cartridges.  I also had my answer elsewhere. The standard and XL ink cartridges are the same size, so they both correspond to the same print head.

  • Photosmart 6520: Pass a printer ink cartridge to another

    I have two printers of the same model @ our two different houses.  I did this so that I can take them w / me, so they don't dry out.

    Im sure that black is not almost empty but left the impression. Can I change them & have printer to recognize ink levels?  I get the message that I have installed a used cartridge

    The ink level information is tracked in the printer, not the cartridge *.  If you move a cartridge of one printer to another, the amount of ink used in the first printer is not available and the level of ink in the second printer will be 'unknown '.   (And...  If you then replace the cartridge for the original printer it may be also incorrect, since the first printer will not know how much ink has been used in the second printer.

    Photosmart 6520 has permanent non-removable print heads.  You should always leave the ink cartridges in the printer.  If the cartridges are removed and left for several hours the printhead can dry out, ruining the printhead.

  • Use black ink cartridges into the two slots? HP Photosmart C4795 - no color cc = us

    Can I use black ink cartridges into the two slots? HP Photosmart C4795 - no color, to save money?

    Hey JJ - B,.

    You cannot use a black cartridge in both slots. The print head channels are different for print 3 colors in a slot vs only black print out on each other. Using black in the two slots certaining most will cause errors and possibly damage the printer.

    Is there a reason you want to run the two blacks to be with? You can still print with only the back cartridge installed.

    Good luck!

  • PHOTOSMART HOW MORE: abandoned black ink cartridges

    HP 564 ink which is a black ink double size is no longer available. This printer takes only the size and the printer was not cheap and now I find that I have to buy a new printer because the cartridge is made is no longer. Make sure that I won't buy HP again.

    What is the reference number of the cartridge you bought?  Is it the same size as the color cartridge?  The cartridge Photo (either standard or XL) is the same size as the standard color cartridge, it does not work like a black cartridge.  The document here can help.  Your printer uses four cartridges, as shown in Figure 1, the black cartridge is on the right side and a Pentagon black symboll on the cartridge.  Figure 2 shows a printers using the smaller cartridge of the photo (the one on the left with the symbol of the butterfly).

    Your b209 Photosmart Plus printer DO NOT use the photo cartridge (whatever the size of the color cartridge), you need a Black cartridge.

  • Photosmart C4640 installation of new ink cartridges

    In the past, I usually install the multi package (black and color) in the machine when it runs.  Once I installed only the color cartridge (because the black cartridge is still a lot of ink in there) and the printer will not accept the new color cartridge.  So I took the totally black cartridge and installed a new color and a black cartridge and then I managed to move forward with my impression.  My question is - is it normal to have to replace BOTH cartridges when one needs to be replaced?  It would be cheaper to replace only the color cartridge... the twin color and black package usually runs about $40.00!  Is there an alternative to a $40.00 a pop!  I use my printer.

    Hi @ted48,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I noticed that you were unable to continue to print unless you have replaced both cartridges instead of with your HP Photosmart c4640. I'm sorry to hear that, but I'm happy to see it for you!

    This is definitely not normal for this printer, you need to replace both cartridges. It is a possible sign of a hardware problem.

    In the meantime, I recommend this guide, a "cartridge problem', 'has no cartridge", or "Incompatible cartridge" Error Message is displayed on the computer.

    I hope this information helps!

  • Photosmart wireless B109n-z showing "ink cartridges above appear to be missing or damaged.

    Hello, I have a problem with my photosmart printer (wirelless B109n-z) now (on Windows 7) and I could do with some advice. He started by printing not really properly-there were only a few extremely weak lines, so I opened the lid and makes sure that the ink cartridges were properly-they came out and put in the new - but then the error message came that the cyan ink cartridge is missing or damaged. As it was low on ink anyway I replaced it with a new one but the message was still there. I went through all the steps on the site of HP to address the problem, but it is always the same and have never used a not genuine HP ink cartridge. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Jen

    If you did not start the steps in this document it.   In step four parts 11 and 12, there are four fingers touch by cartridge.  Make sure that none of these electrical contacts are misaligned, if we're folded its place gently back in its place.  (Compare contacts faulty cyan with those on the cartridges adjacent as described in this post.)

  • HP Photosmart Plus all-in-One: ink cartridge problems

    I have a model B209.  Last week, I decided that I would take the four staples of cartridgesto used, because they have a recycling program.  I wanted to only buy black ink, so I bought 2 separate packages of the 564 Black.  Has opened a package and installed as usual.  All I keep seeing is problem Catrridge of ink: the following ink cartridges seems to be missing or damaged.  see status screen on your computer for more details.  The question is # 1 status display has not yet shown on my computer. #2 I can't even to other options on the Touchscrren of the printer.  I have read and watched videos of people who give directions and instructions on cleaning the print heads.  I tried to remove the printhead, soaking in the water, leaving back dry and enforcement.  I did these things repeatedly.  When I soak the print head in the water, the water changes color.  I hope that I have accidentally hit the wrong part of print head when I removed it from the printer.  Please help, because it's my only other option when I can't access wifi to my portable device used for the printing of tickets, Groupons, etc..  Thank you!

    Your printer requres all 4 cartridges to be present, that is why the printer tells you that the cartridges are missing can may not last.

    Some newer model printers, which use the cartridges with integrated print heads, can operate with only the black cartridge only.

    But the B209, separated print head and ink cartridges, if not all the cartridges are installed, the print head does not work.

  • Photosmart 6520: cannot use HP ink cartridges

    That is to say there is a way to set up this printer to accept ink cartridges HP no?

    If it's not official HP ink, you know never really what he could do. Despite the official toner prices, you would be better to stick with it. They cannot much help out if toner unoffical screws to the top of your printer.

  • Printer says I have ink cartridges in the wrong housing but they are not

    I have a printer HP Photosmart 7510 who keeps saying that I have the cartridge in the wrong slot. All 5 are in the correct locations.

    Take a look on the link following which treats problems ink cartridge.  Click here  You did most of these, but do not yet made steps.  The link suggests you clean the contacts again.  Make sure that the cartridges are level with each other.

    If this does not help, I suggest you do a reset of the ink system.  To do this, remove the printhead and ink cartridges.  See this link.  Close the access of transport cover.  Follow the reset instructions in the following link.  Click here  Once the printer rear lights up and indicates that the print head is missing, reinstall the print head.  Close the access door.  When the printer indicates one or more of the ink cartridges are missing, reposition one of them and close the access door until the cartridge shows.  Repeat the process until all the cartridges are reinstalled.  This aid?

  • HP Officejet 4630: Hp Officejet ' ink cartridge problem: the following ink cartridge must be replaced '

    We've had this printer for several years and she did beautifully until I bought a new ink colored and installed and all of a sudden, he said that there was a lack of ink cartridge. Then I went out and bought black ink (because it is low in any case) and installed it but this message kept popping up 'the following ink cartridges need to be replaced' (for color) even if she had new ink cartridges. But all trying to find a solution, I discovered the functions of the good printer without going through a color cartridge inside, but as soon as I put the color cartridge inside the same error message appears on the color ink. I tried to clean it up and unplug it and clean the cartridges. IM wondering if my last choice is to bring in the printer if it looked

    Good evening
    It was in fact unfortunately useless that I did all these steps twice I even bought the new ink color for this printer and the problem persists. I hope I can find a solution quickly!
