HP 94 & 95 Ink Cartridges

What to expect from each cartridge type

Page yields are determined using the international ISO/IEC 24711 standard for inkjet printing, ensuring consistent measurement benchmarks. The standard black cartridge outputs up to 450 pages, whereas the tri-colour variant delivers up to 260 pages before replacement is required.

Choosing between genuine and compatible options

Opting for premium compatible versions drastically lowers the upfront cost per tank without altering how the cartridge interacts with your printhead. Under Australian Consumer Law, using compatible cartridges does not void your printer warranty. To see a detailed comparison of features, read our guide on genuine vs compatible cartridges.

Choosing the right cartridge setup

Frequent monochrome document production calls for dedicated black replacements, while mixed-media users benefit from multi-packs. If you choose our compatible options to lower your overheads, rest assured they carry a complete money-back guarantee. View details on our returns policy page.

Pro Tip

The HP 95 colour cartridge contains cyan, magenta, and yellow ink within a single housing; if you print graphics heavy in one single primary shade, the entire unit must be replaced once that specific reservoir empties, even if the other two colours remain full.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my printer show an ink level warning immediately after installing a compatible HP 94 or 95 cartridge?

HP printers occasionally display a "low ink" or "non-genuine" notification when a remanufactured cartridge is inserted because the microchip retains its previous lifecycle memory. Simply click through the on-screen prompt or press the resume button on the printer panel to bypass the message and proceed with normal printing.

Can I install an HP 98 black cartridge into a printer that currently uses an HP 94 black cartridge?

Yes, certain multi-pack options blend different cartridge series numbers because specific Deskjet and Officejet models share matching physical carriage rails. Always verify that your explicit model name is on the printer compatibility list before swapping series numbers, as ink configurations vary.

What happens to print performance if the internal nozzle plate dries out from infrequent use?

Because the HP 94 and 95 cartridge architecture builds the electronic printhead directamente into the base of the tank itself, any stubborn ink blockages can be completely resolved by running an integrated cleaning cycle or replacing the individual cartridge, effectively giving the printer a brand-new firing mechanism.
