Rated 5 out of 5 by SimmGirl from Excellent Product I have purchased HP inks and toner for years because they consistently give superior performance. My printed documents are crisp, clear, and professional, with no ink smudges. Changing the cartridges is also usually quick, easy, and mess-free. The toner cartridges last forever, so economically, it's the absolute best choice.

Rated 4 out of 5 by TurtleWax from HP 12A toner cart - Works good as new I have had a string of bad luck with refilled toner cartridges lately from other sources. It was nice to see nice clean prints again instead of type on a haze gray shaded print. Price was same or better than I could find in local stores and quality is very good.
