Replace the Complete Colour Set
When several colours are empty, the 2-Pack 63/65 Genuine (from $71.50) is the simplest way to restock the whole set.
Replace Just One Colour
A single Genuine 63 Black cartridge (from $31.09) lets you replace one colour at a time, without buying a full set.
Expected page output and replacement cycles
HP 63/65 standard cartridges yield approximately 100 pages for black and 120 pages for tri-colour, while the high-yield HP 63XL/65XL black cartridge delivers up to 300 pages. Yields are calculated under ISO/IEC 24711 testing standards using continuous printing at 5% page coverage.
| Cartridge Number | Type | Colour | Page Yield | Cost Per Page |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 63 | Standard | Black | 100 | $0.31 |
| 63 | Standard | Colour | 120 | $0.35 |
| 63XL | High Yield | Black | 300 | $0.24 |
Cost Per Page = Total Cartridge Price ÷ Page Yield (at 5% coverage). Prices based on Genuine cartridges.
Choosing the right cartridge setup
If you print text infrequently, standard HP 63/65 cartridges suit basic document needs. For higher print frequencies, choosing HP 63XL/65XL high-yield cartridges reduces cost per page by tripling black page output. If you select an incompatible consumable by mistake, review our returns policy for straightforward exchanges. Order genuine HP ink cartridges before 3pm for fast despatch from regional warehouses in Perth, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide. Free delivery applies on all orders over $99.
Pro Tip
Because HP 63/65 and 63XL/65XL cartridges consolidate the older HP 63 and HP 65 lines into single dual-compatible cartridges, they fit and function across both printer series. If your printer previously used an HP 63 or HP 65 cartridge, the new combined 63/65 cartridge is the direct official replacement.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can a single HP 63/65 cartridge replace both an older HP 63 and HP 65 cartridge?
Yes. HP updated this cartridge family so that one HP 63/65 unit covers both HP 63 and HP 65 printer series, eliminating the need to search for separate 63 or 65 model numbers.
What happens if one colour runs dry in the tri-colour 63/65 cartridge?
Because tri-colour cartridges house Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow in one unit with an integrated printhead, running one colour empty starves those printhead nozzles of liquid cooling. Replace the cartridge promptly or force 'Black Ink Only' in driver settings to protect print clarity.
Can I use an HP 63XL/65XL Black cartridge with a standard HP 63/65 Tri-Colour cartridge?
Yes, standard and high-yield XL cartridges share identical physical dimensions and install in the same carriage slots, allowing you to combine standard and XL variants as needed.
Is 63/65 XL the same as 63XL/65XL?
Yes, 63/65 XL and 63XL/65XL refer to the exact same combined high-yield HP cartridge code; the space is simply a minor retail formatting difference.
