Pro Tip for DesignJet Ink Management
Always keep a spare 738 Black (498P2A) cartridge on hand in busy design studios. Wide-format plotters consume black ink rapidly during continuous CAD line-work prints, and keeping an extra unit ready prevents downtime mid-plot.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do 738 ink cartridge capacities differ between black and colour cartridges?
Black 738 (498P2A) cartridges are supplied in high-capacity 300ml sizes to handle extensive line-drawing workloads, whereas 738 colour cartridges (498N5A Cyan, 498N6A Magenta, 498N7A Yellow) come in standard 130ml sizes suited for colour fills and GIS detailing.
Can I install individual HP 738 colour cartridges as they run empty?
Yes, each HP 738 cartridge operates independently. You can replace individual Cyan (498N5A), Magenta (498N6A), or Yellow (498N7A) cartridges as needed without replacing the entire set.
Why is high ink volume important for wide-format technical printing?
Wide-format plotters like the DesignJet T950 cover larger paper surface areas per sheet than standard office printers. Larger ink capacities reduce cartridge changeover frequency during long unattended print runs.
