HP Envy Photo 7820 7822 Ink Cartridges
Shop ink cartridges for your HP Envy Photo 7820 and 7822, which uses the HP 804 and 804XL ink cartridges series. Ink Depot has been supplying reliable consumables for these printers since Nov 2017. These all-in-one photo printers deliver high-resolution prints, where switching from standard 804 cartridges (T6N09AA / T6N10AA) to high-yield 804XL options (T6N11AA / T6N12AA) significantly lowers printing costs for regular photo printing. Our 4.8 Google rating reflects a long-standing track record of premium cartridge performance.

Choosing Between Genuine and Compatible Options
When selecting consumables for your printer, both genuine HP and compatible cartridges offer distinct advantages. Compatible HP 804XL cartridges deliver substantial savings per page while matching standard output capacities. Under Australian Consumer Law, using compatible cartridges does not void your printer warranty.

Best Ways to Stock Your HP 804 Cartridges
For standard document printing, purchasing black T6N10AA or high-yield T6N12AA cartridges individually keeps upfront costs low. If you regularly print glossy family photos or graphics, 804XL high-yield multi-packs offer the best value per drop. All our compatible cartridges come backed by a money-back guarantee for complete peace of mind.

Pro Tip
The HP 804 tri-colour cartridge contains cyan, magenta, and yellow ink in a single housing with an integrated printhead mechanism. Because photo printing depletes individual colours unevenly depending on image tones, replacing the cartridge when one colour depletes automatically gives your printer a fresh firing nozzle block for maximum photo clarity.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do the HP Envy Photo 7820 and 7822 printers use the exact same ink cartridges?
Yes. Both the HP Envy Photo 7820 and 7822 share the same internal print system and take identical HP 804 and HP 804XL black and tri-colour ink cartridges.
Can I install an 804XL cartridge if my printer currently uses a standard 804 cartridge?
Yes. The HP 804XL high-yield cartridge has identical physical exterior dimensions to the standard HP 804 cartridge. It contains more ink internally and fits into the exact same slot in your printer.
Why does my printer report low ink on the tri-colour cartridge when prints still look bright?
HP 804 tri-colour cartridges monitor overall ink volume across cyan, magenta, and yellow chambers. If your recent prints featured heavy skies or ocean shots, the cyan chamber may deplete faster than magenta or yellow, prompting an ink warning even though ink remains in the other chambers.
Does replacing an HP 804 cartridge replace the printhead assembly?
Yes. HP 804 cartridges feature an integrated printhead built directly onto the cartridge base. Every time you fit a new black or tri-colour cartridge, you replace the print nozzles, helping prevent long-term nozzle clogging on infrequently used photo printers.
