Cartridge Insight
Because the HP 28 tri-colour cartridge contains cyan, magenta, and yellow ink in a single housing, depleting just one colour requires replacing the entire cartridge. If you regularly print document headings in a specific accent colour, keeping a spare 28 (C8728AA) cartridge on hand prevents unexpected work stoppages.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does replacing the HP 27 or 28 cartridge refresh the print quality?
The HP 27 and 28 cartridge series features an integrated printhead built directly into each cartridge unit. Replacing the cartridge installs a brand new firing nozzle mechanism, ensuring clean text and eliminating printhead wear issues.
Can I print with only the HP 27 black cartridge installed in my Deskjet 3650?
Yes, the HP Deskjet 3650 supports single-cartridge printing mode. If your HP 28 tri-colour cartridge runs empty, the printer can operate solely with the HP 27 (C8727AA) black cartridge to produce greyscale text documents.
How does the page yield rating apply to heavy graphic printing on the HP 28 colour cartridge?
The standard 190-page yield rating for the HP 28 (C8728AA) colour cartridge is based on standard 5% page coverage. High-density colour graphics or full-page photo prints consume significantly more ink per page, which will proportionally reduce the overall number of prints achieved.
