Choosing the Right Cartridge Setup
If you print mostly text documents, choosing high-yield 62XL (C2P05AA) black cartridges provides the best balance of output and convenience. For regular photo printing, pairing a 62XL (C2P05AA) black with a 62XL (C2P07AA) tri-colour cartridge ensures rich colour production while reducing overall replacement cycles.

Consumable Buying Tip
Because the HP 62 tri-colour cartridge combines cyan, magenta, and yellow into a single unit, printing image-heavy pages with dominant colour tones will deplete that individual colour faster, requiring a complete replacement of the tri-colour cartridge even if other colours remain.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use 62XL cartridges in my HP Envy 5540 if it previously used standard 62 cartridges?
Yes. High-yield 62XL (C2P05AA) black and 62XL (C2P07AA) tri-colour cartridges share the exact same physical dimensions as standard 62 cartridges and slot directly into the same cartridge bay without modification.
What happens when one colour runs out in the HP 62 tri-colour cartridge?
Because cyan, magenta, and yellow are contained within a single multi-colour cartridge housing, the entire tri-colour cartridge must be replaced once any single ink colour is exhausted to ensure correct colour balance on prints.
Does replacing an HP 62 ink cartridge also replace the printhead?
Yes. HP 62 and 62XL cartridges feature an integrated printhead design, meaning a fresh printhead nozzle mechanism is installed automatically each time you insert a replacement cartridge into the HP Envy 5540.
