Page yield expectations for photo printing

|---|---|---|---|---|
| 95 | Standard | Colour | 260 | $0.19 |
Cost Per Page = Total Cartridge Price ÷ Page Yield (at 5% coverage). Prices based on Genuine cartridges.
Choosing between genuine and compatible cartridges

Pro Tip
When printing graphics or photos with tri-colour cartridges, replacing the 95 (C8766WA) unit before one colour completely runs dry prevents colour banding across wide-format prints.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my tri-colour 95 (C8766WA) cartridge run out of ink even if I mainly print black text?
Inkjet printers routinely use small amounts of colour ink from the 95 (C8766WA) cartridge during automatic printhead maintenance cycles to prevent nozzle blockages, even when printing monochrome jobs.
Can I install a 95 (C8766WA) cartridge alongside a standard black cartridge?
Yes, the HP Photosmart B8770 operates using a two-cartridge system where the tri-colour 95 (C8766WA) cartridge fits into its designated colour slot alongside the primary black cartridge.
How does photo printing affect the page yield of 95 (C8766WA) cartridges?
The rated yield of 260 pages is based on 5% page coverage under standard test conditions. High-coverage A4 or wide-format photo printing uses significantly more ink per page, which reduces the total printable page count accordingly.
