Great Value, Works Perfectly
UPDATE 1-23-17: My refill finally ran low on ink. Installed the first one on 4/21/16, lasted until 1/23/17. We print a fair bit (home use, not office use), and it lasted 9 months. Great experience!! I've popped my 2nd one in (bought the two pack), and it aligns and works just fine, but I'll wait about 6-7 months before re-ordering because they last that long.ORIGINAL REVIEW:I inherited an HP 4480 All In One from my in-laws, and have been using it as a back up to my regular printer (which doesn't have a scanner bed). The 4480 does, and I decided to keep both printers hooked up. The primary one (an HP OfficeJet 6000) is only stocked with new paper, and the 4480 is stocked with previously used (so I print drafts or working copies for the house on the back side). To do this, I didn't want to pay HP full boat pricing for cartridges. My mother-in-law left behind an unopened HP 75 color cartridge, but the HP 74 installed had dried out. I tried to resuscitate it, but it was too far gone (there are plenty of you tube videos showing how to clean the dried out ink from an HP cartridge like this one, using boiling water and hydrogen peroxide), filled to a depth of 1/4" or so.Anyway, I needed a low cost solution to provide straight black ink. I read all the reviews, and selected the Valuetoner remanufactured ink cartridge. I ordered the 2 pack of black for around $8, free shipping included, and the order was promptly filled by ValueToner. Each cartridge was individually sealed in a plastic pouch, with a yellow pull tab tape connected to a small sheet of clear mylar or plastic covering the critical ink jet orifices on the bottom of the cartridge. In addition, there's a snap fitting (removable black plastic) that clamps over the entire front and base of the cartridge, which provides full protection. If you didn't know better, you'd think you just received an HP cartridge!I opened one bag, removed the cartridge, removed the snap protective cover, peeled off the yellow tab with clear plastic/mylar protection, opened the HP 4480 and installed the cartridge in the spot I removed the HP 74 from. Now I did have just the regular HP 74 (not the HP 74XL), so I realized the ValueToner cartridge was indeed the XL version. It fits within the space constraints with no problem. The HP 4480 was immediately satisfied and began the process of asking me to print an alignment page. I printed the alignment page, scanned it in when prompted, and the HP 4480 was perfectly happy, informing me that the new cartridge was aligned. I took the old HP 74 cartridge, placed the protective film over it, and placed the snap protective cover on it. This allows me to store the used cartridge; I will attempt another refill some time in the future, once my two "new" ValueToner cartridges are empty.I've had this several weeks now, and printed probably 1/2 a ream of paper, with no degradation in print quality at all. ValueToner exceeded ALL of my expectations! If you don't refill yourself, this is the best available option (and probably better than refilling yourself).I've attached two pics - one showing the length difference (side view) and one showing labels of the ValueToner and old HP cartridges.

BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE I HAVE EVER SEEN--FLAWLESS! BRAVO TO VALUETONER.
Wonderful cartridges, work perfectly in my older but very well functioning HP printer, the ink levels are recognized and show a readout which is very handy. I have used these for 10 years with great success. Got a defective color cartridge for the first time with my last order. No ink level showing and wouldn't print at all with the cartridge inserted. Thanks to Valuetoner's spectacular customer service, the issue was resolved. They responded quickly to my request, we exchanged a couple of emails, with them responding quickly each time and they sent me a replacement.

Update to previous 5 star review
Update to my previous 5 star review. When I ordered the HP 92/93 cartridges I ordered two sets. The first set worked fine and lasted a long time. The second set which I just put in worked fine at first and then ink faded out after only about 10 pages of printing. I put my printer thru the cartridge cleaning cycle and the amount of ink got even worse. Useless cartridges. Sadly it is obviously hit or miss with these and I will never be buying again.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________Previous review - Both HP 92 and 93 cartridges work greatIt's been over 10 years since I have given remanufactured ink cartridges a shot. They were always leaking and worked streaky at best. So I've been buying the HP 92 and 93 dual pack to be sure they would work. But the cartridges are very pricey and when I saw the price and reviews of the Valuetoner cartridges I decided to give them a shot. If they didn't work out - nothing really lost due to the price. I was totally impressed with the purchase right upon receiving them. The cartridges are packaged individually and with great care. They also come with detailed and clear details on the cartridges themselves, how they work and how to troubleshoot if your printer won't see them as valid cartridges. It all went very simply for me. My printer noted that they weren't authentic HP cartridges but accepted them right away and printed the test page the same as after every cartridge installation. These cartridges did not leak at all upon opening and printed flawlessly upon installation. The test page was perfect and after about 100 pages both cartridges have not streaked or faltered in quality at all. I see some people feel some cartridges are not performing as they wish. Honestly that has happened with authentic HP cartridges to me many times as well. I print many photos and often with the HP cartridges they would start fading or streaking after only 10 prints and I would have to put my printer through the clean cartridges mode. With these Valuetoner cartridges that has yet to happen. I am more than thrilled and impressed with their quality and the professional packaging of the company. I highly recommend giving this company and these cartridges a shot. If my cartridges do indeed start to falter I will adjust this review accordingly to be as accurate and helpful as possible.

Worked for my HP H470 Portable Printer, nicely packaged.
Worked perfectly in my HP OfficeJet H470 portable printer. As a bonus, the included covers make them secure for removal and transportation/storage. I'm an IT pro and I would buy again.
