125A Toner Cartridge,Compatible for HP 125A CB540A Toner Cartridge for HP Color Laserjet CP1518ni CM1312nfi CP1215 CM1312 MFP CP1518 CP1515 Series Pritner,Black Cyan Yellow Magenta

The toners have great color quality. The printer recognized the product immediately. No problems.

The item arrived with a broken piece on one of the cartridges so it could not fit into the printer.

The cyan color cartridge did not fit in my HP Color Laserjet CP1518ni. All others were OK. On close examination, I found that the left edge of the cartridge (where the electrical contacts are) had a different design with a small ledge that prevented full insertion into the printer. This could be a manufacturing or packaging issue for the cyan toner. The label on the cartridge was correct though.

This review is for the 125A 4 color pack, which fit my 12 year old cp1518ni color laser printer. Easy to install, just follow the simple directions - shake gently a few times, remove protective paper and plastic strip with a long inky tail, and the big plastic cover on the bottom covering the ink drum. Be careful NOT to touch the blueish roller which is the drum that magically deposits the appropriate ink in the right place! Make sure to get the cartridges in the right slots, either take a picture, or do them one at a time.After doing the above, I turned the machine on, it turns on and it notes that there are new cartridges and goes through a calibration procedure. After that, it says not new cartridges, and then says ready. I proceeded to go to the menu and print a status report of ink, it told me all were at 99% full, how many pages it would print, and that they were not original cartridges and would void my guarantee! After 12 years, not a problem! I then printed some pages that i needed to print and they printed perfectly. The colors look good, I did not print any photos.I think these cartridges are an excellent buy, and I recommend them. HP charges about $100 per cartridge, these are less than $25 per cartridge, and they seem to print just as well as the original. I can't speak to longevity yet, but the status sheet showed the correct page expectation. Given that, I expect they will last for a lot of printing.

It did not preform as expected. The colour did not come out as expected. I would not buy this product again from this supplier

At $90 during time of review I honestly can't argue with the value this set provides. HP OEM wants $90 per cartridge which would come out to about $400 a set after tax and that's psychotic. This set of cartridge came well package and appears well made. As instructed I shook them, unwrapped them, and installed them as is and my printer initialized and ran fine. Report of the ink stats shows that while the printer recognized them, they also noted that these are not official HP ink cartridge and if these cartridge damages your printer it will void your printer's warranty, but if your printer is old there probably isn't a warranty anyways. I have printed over 30 sheets so far and the ink looks vibrant, lively, and has good contract, overall impressed with the quality so far, the only real test now is the longevity test to see how long it lasts.

I have an older HP printer and while I don't print too often anymore, I do still need to change the toner when I am running out.The problem is that my printer is older, and the toner seems to be getting more and more expensive for it. Planned obsolescence? I don't know, but it feels like HP is pushing me to just buy another printer..This is a great option instead of the OEM ones, that are way more expensive. The problem with non-OEM toner is the chip inside, which makes the printer recognize them as OEM parts. I have ran into problems with this before, but not this time: I remove the plastic protections and plugged the toner in the printer. It worked right out of the box. Some calibration, and the printer was ready to use.I don't know about the longevity of these cartridges, but so far, I am happy that I got them.
