Choosing between genuine and compatible options
Selecting compatible ink bottles offers a cost-effective way to refill your ink tanks without compromising output clarity.

Replacement Print Heads for HP Smart Tank
The HP Smart Tank Plus 655 utilizes separate modular print heads, including the M0H50AA Black and X4E75AA Tri-colour print head units. Experience Tip: Replacing worn print heads restores factory-level drop placement and line crispness after multiple full ink tank refill cycles.
Smart ordering and nationwide delivery
If you print mainly text documents, prioritizing the high-yield 32XL (1VV24AA) black ink bottle keeps cost-per-page exceptionally low. If you print photos or colour graphics, keeping 31 (1VU26AA) cyan, magenta, and yellow bottles stocked prevents uneven depletion during large visual runs. All compatible bottles include a 100% money-back guarantee under our standard returns policy. We ship directly from warehouses in Perth, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide. Free delivery applies on all orders over $99. Explore our complete range of HP Ink Bottles today.
Pro Tip
When refilling ink reservoirs, ensure the printer remains on a level surface and wait for the ink level to reach the maximum fill line before re-sealing the bottle cap to protect unused ink from air exposure.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you top up Smart Tank ink reservoirs before they are completely empty?
Yes, HP Smart Tank reservoirs can be topped up at any point. You do not need to wait until the tanks are depleted before pouring in fresh ink from 32XL (1VV24AA) or 31 series bottles.
Can compatible ink bottles be mixed with original HP ink in the tanks?
Compatible ink bottles engineered for the HP 31 and 32XL series use ink formulations fully miscible with original HP ink, allowing seamless top-ups into existing tank levels.
How often do M0H50AA and X4E75AA print heads need replacing?
Unlike standard ink cartridges with integrated print heads, Smart Tank print heads last through tens of thousands of pages and typically only require replacement if fine nozzle wear causes permanent line banding.
