"According to the specifications, these cartridges were supposed to work in my printer. Neither worked in my printer. I'm wondering if it's because they are remanufactured?"

"I have 2 printers that use these. Often (40% of the time) you put the cartridge into the printer and the ink cartridge light blinks and the printer refuses to print. Both printers agree on a given cartridge, but once you get the blinking light, it isn't going to work"

"After seeing all of the good reviews for these refurbished color cartridges for my HP printer, I bought 2 of them. The first cartridge printed no color at all. The second one printed all color as yellow and green. Horrible. I have not had any good luck with refurbished color ink jet cartridges for HP from any 3rd party distributor. These were by far the worst. I could not even use them. What's worse, I bought them as backups, did not open and test them when they arrrive, so the return period has long since passed. This is my first unhappy purchase ever from Overstock. I will say that I purchased the HP 45 (black) at the same time and those seem to be working fine."

"These ink cartridges are just as good as brand new cartridges. I was hesitant at first to try a remanufactured cartridge but for the price and quality it was well worth it! I also like the fact that it contributes to recycling."

"I ordered the twin pack and one of the cartridges had no yellow ink and the other had no magenta. Overstock credited my account. Great customer service but I will probably not order ink cartridges on line again."

"I ordered this product and after receiving it promptly, was dismayed to find one of the cartridges not working. I thought to myself, "here we go again...more money lost at internet purchases!"

I called Overstock and found the staff very helpful and courteous. They immediately redeemed the problem and sent another cartridge out the next day.

I am very impressed!"

"These cartridges came and I could not believe that the quality was so good. They were very full with ink and they print beautifully. These cartridges if bought in the store would cost almost 40 dollars for 1. You get the deal of a lifetime when you buy these. I couldn't wait to tell my friends about this great deal. The quality is as good as if I have bought the name brand product. I would recommend this product to everyone."
