HP 564 & 564XL Ink Cartridges

HP 564 standard black (CB316WA) yields around 250 pages; the 564XL black (CN684WA) steps that up to 550 pages - a 2.2x increase per cartridge. Standard colours (cyan CB318WA, magenta CB319WA, yellow CB320WA) yield around 300 pages each, while their XL counterparts (CB323WA, CB324WA, CB325WA) reach 750 pages each - roughly 2.5x more per colour. Photo black is a separate cartridge category entirely: the standard CB317WA yields around 130 4"x6" pages, and the XL CB322WA reaches 290 pages. If you own a Photosmart model with five ink slots, you will need photo black in addition to your regular black and colour cartridges - they serve different output roles and cannot substitute for each other. There is no 564XXL tier; XL is the highest capacity available across the entire 564 range. For households that print a mix of documents and photos, keeping both a spare XL black and a photo black on hand avoids being caught short on either type mid-job.

HP 564 and 564XL cartridges are available as singles in each colour and as bundle packs of 4, 5, 8, and 10. Both genuine HP and compatible options are stocked across the full range - compatible cartridges are a practical choice for regular printing, and under Australian Consumer Law, using compatible cartridges does not void your HP printer warranty. Metro orders over $99 (conditions apply) receive free delivery - a small fee applies to rural and regional postcodes. See the shipping page for details.

General FAQ

Which printers are compatible with HP 564 and 564XL cartridges?

HP 564 and 564XL cartridges are compatible with a wide range of HP Photosmart models - including the 5510, 5520, 6510, 6520, 7510, 7520, B109a, B110a, B209a, B8550, B8553, B8558, C309a, C410a, C510a, C5324, C5370, C5373, C5380, C5388, C5390, C5393, C5460, C6300, C6324, C6375, C6380, D5460, D5463, D5468, D7560, and Premium C310a - as well as the Deskjet 3520 and 3070A, and the OfficeJet 4610 and 4620. Both standard and XL cartridges work in the same printers; the XL simply holds more ink.

What is the photo black cartridge and do I need it for my printer?

The HP 564 photo black (CB317WA standard, CB322WA XL) is a dedicated cartridge used in Photosmart models that have five ink slots rather than four. It works alongside - not instead of - the regular black cartridge, contributing to smoother tonal gradients in photo prints. If your Photosmart printer has a fifth slot, you need it. If you own a Deskjet 3520, 3070A, or OfficeJet 4610/4620, those printers only have four slots and do not accept photo black at all.

Is there a 564XXL cartridge, or is XL the highest capacity available?

XL is the highest capacity tier in the HP 564 range - there is no 564XXL. The 564XL black (CN684WA) prints up to 550 pages, and XL colours (cyan, magenta, yellow) reach up to 750 pages each. HP has not released an extra-high-yield tier for this series, so if you are comparing cartridge options for your Photosmart or Deskjet, XL is the most cost-efficient option available per page.
