HP Smart Tank 7005 Ink Bottles
Your HP Smart Tank 7005 uses the HP 31 and 32XL ink bottles along with 3YP17AA and X4E75AA replacement print heads. This refillable ink tank printer is designed for high-volume printing in busy home office setups. High-volume document printing depletes 32XL (1VV24AA) black ink faster, while 31 (1VU26AA) colour bottles provide steady coverage. As demonstrated by our 4.8 Google rating, we are committed to providing premium consumable cartridges.

HP rates page output for 32XL (1VV24AA) black and 31 (1VU26AA, 1VU27AA, 1VU28AA) colour bottles under ISO/IEC 24711 testing standards. High-density document coverage or continuous colour graphics will consume ink faster than standard ISO page estimates.

Choosing between genuine and compatible ink bottles
Selecting compatible 32XL (1VV24AA) black and 31 (1VU26AA) colour bottles offers substantial savings for high-volume print tasks without compromising print clarity. Every compatible bottle supplied by Ink Depot comes backed by a 90-day money-back guarantee. Under Australian Consumer Law, using compatible cartridges does not void your printer warranty.

Replacement print heads for Smart Tank systems
The HP Smart Tank 7005 relies on separate 3YP17AA and X4E75AA print heads to transfer ink onto the page. Experience Tip: The 3YP17AA and X4E75AA print heads are replaceable components that outlast multiple ink bottle refills, ensuring clean ink delivery across high print volumes.
Selecting the right ink refills for your workload
If you print mainly text documents, purchasing individual 32XL (1VV24AA) black bottles or multi-packs keeps printing uninterrupted. If you print colour charts and graphics, bundled 31 (1VU26AA) colour sets provide complete cyan, magenta, and yellow coverage at lower cost. All compatible refills are backed by a money-back guarantee if they do not perform as expected. Review our returns policy for full peace of mind. Free delivery applies on all orders over $99, with fast dispatch from our national warehouse network in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, and Adelaide. Browse our full range of HP ink cartridges.
Pro Tip
When topping up the Smart Tank reservoir, ensure you key the spill-free bottle correctly into the colour-coded tank valve rather than squeezing the bottle, allowing gravity to fill the tank smoothly without introducing air bubbles.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I top up the ink tanks on the HP Smart Tank 7005 before they are completely empty?
Yes, you can top up the ink reservoirs at any point using 32XL (1VV24AA) or 31 (1VU26AA) bottles without needing to wait for low-ink warnings.
How do I know when the 3YP17AA or X4E75AA print heads need replacing?
Unlike ink bottles which require regular refilling, 3YP17AA and X4E75AA print heads are long-life components that only require replacement if printhead nozzles show persistent gaps after diagnostic prints.
Are 31XL and 32XL ink bottles interchangeable across ink slots?
No, the 32XL (1VV24AA) black bottle is formulated specifically for the black tank, while 31 (1VU26AA, 1VU27AA, 1VU28AA) cyan, magenta, and yellow bottles feature unique keyed bottle necks to prevent accidental cross-colour filling.
