HP Deskjet D1460 Ink Cartridges
Your HP Deskjet D1460 uses the HP 21 and 22 ink series. Ink Depot has been supplying reliable consumables for this printer since Sep 2009. A compact single-function inkjet printer designed for light everyday document printing and basic home schoolwork, it relies on a two-cartridge system. Routine text documents exhaust the black 21 (C9351AA) cartridge faster than the tri-colour 22 (C9352AA) unit. Our 4.8 Google rating reflects a long-standing track record of premium cartridge performance.

Pro Tip
Because the HP 22 (C9352AA) tri-colour cartridge contains cyan, magenta, and yellow ink in a single physical unit, running out of just one primary colour requires replacing the entire cartridge. Printing in draft mode for casual documents helps preserve colour ink evenly.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I install an XL high-yield cartridge like 21XL or 22XL in the Deskjet D1460?
Yes, XL capacity cartridges like the 21XL and 22XL share the exact physical dimensions as standard 21 (C9351AA) and 22 (C9352AA) units, fitting into the exact same cartridge slots while offering a higher page yield.
Why does the Deskjet D1460 stop printing colour even if cyan and magenta still have ink?
The HP 22 (C9352AA) tri-colour cartridge combines all three colours into one physical casing. When any single colour chamber empties, the printer prevents further colour output to protect print quality, requiring a full cartridge replacement.
Is it better to replace the black and colour cartridges together or individually?
Replace cartridges individually as they deplete. Text-heavy printing depletes the black 21 (C9351AA) ink cartridge much faster than the tri-colour unit, so changing them only as required avoids wasting remaining colour ink.
