Key buying advice for HP 564 cartridges
Always check cartridge codes carefully before buying, as HP 564 series printers require standard black 564 (CB316WA) or 564XL (CN684WA) ink, which uses a specific slim casing compared to photo black cartridges used in 5-ink HP models.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I mix standard HP 564 and high-yield HP 564XL cartridges in the same printer?
Yes, standard HP 564 and HP 564XL cartridges share identical physical slot dimensions and locking clips. You can freely install a high-yield 564XL (CN684WA) black cartridge alongside standard 564 (CB318WA) colour cartridges without any setup issues.
What happens if one colour cartridge runs completely empty on the HP Deskjet 3520?
The HP Deskjet 3520 uses individual ink tanks for each colour channel (Black, Cyan, Magenta, Yellow). When a single colour runs out, the printer will stop printing colour jobs until that specific cartridge is replaced to protect the permanent printhead from dry firing.
How does the page yield of HP 564XL compare to standard HP 564 cartridges?
High-yield 564XL black cartridges yield up to 550 pages compared to 250 pages for standard 564 black, while 564XL colour cartridges yield up to 750 pages versus 300 pages for standard colour cartridges.
