Switching from standard 94 (C8765WA) black and 95 (C8766WA) tri-colour to high-yield 96 (C8767WA) and 97 (C9363WA) options lowers running costs during heavy photo printing.

Expected page output and replacement cycles
Print yields for the 94, 95, 96, and 97 ink cartridges are calculated in accordance with ISO/IEC 24711 testing standards. Actual page output varies based on image coverage and print density, with colour photo prints depleting ink faster than plain text documents.
Choosing between genuine and compatible options
Under Australian Consumer Law, using compatible cartridges does not void your printer warranty. Choosing compatible 96 (C8767WA) and 97 (C9363WA) cartridges offers significant cost savings over original HP items without compromising output clarity. Read our detailed genuine vs compatible cartridge guide to evaluate performance differences before buying.

Cartridge Selection Pro Tip

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I install 96 and 97 high-yield cartridges in place of standard 94 and 95 cartridges?
Yes. High-yield 96 (C8767WA) and 97 (C9363WA) cartridges share the identical physical dimensions as standard 94 (C8765WA) and 95 (C8766WA) cartridges, fitting directly into the same printer slots while holding more ink.
How does tri-colour ink consumption affect photo printing on the HP Photosmart 8450?
Tri-colour cartridges combine cyan, magenta, and yellow ink in a single housing. If one colour depletes faster due to heavy tinting in your photos, the entire cartridge must be replaced even if other colours remain.
What happens if I mix genuine and compatible cartridges in the same printer?
You can mix genuine and compatible HP 94, 95, 96, or 97 cartridges in your HP Photosmart 8450 without issue, as each cartridge operates independently within its respective carriage slot.
