    Strengths: quality of prints, lasts longer than generics

    Weaknesses:none

    Overall Evaluation: After ruining my last printer with generic cartridges, I went back to HP. I don't like the fact they always include a pre-paid UPS label to ship it back to HP. I know I am paying for it when I buy this cartridge. I'd rather take them to a local Office Depot to receive a free ream of paper (They do NOT do this all the time - see weekly advertisements). Anyway, no complaints about quality. It prints, and lasts a long time.

    Strengths: HP1012 printer & 12A toner print FAST and GREAT Quality

    Weaknesses:toner runs out of ink too fast

    Overall Evaluation: The HP1012 printer is a phenomenal personal black & white laser printer. Not only does it print fast, but it prints fantastic grayscale graphics/images. It is reliable and rugged. My only complaint is that I use it so much, that the toner runs out too fast. It would also be nice if the toner cartridge was less expensive as I use this as my primary printer.

    Strengths: Good quality, sharp printouts

    Weaknesses:Price

    Overall Evaluation: This is a high quality genuine HP cartridge. HP makes some of the most reliable equipment out there. The cartridge is definitely more expensive that some others but you get what you pay for.

    Strengths: overall a good value ... no problems with the printing

    Weaknesses:I still have to complain a little about the price

    Overall Evaluation: You are still getting a very solid performer for the entry level price you found on this printer. No complaints there. As for the price of the toner? .... little high, but understandable ... I'll stick with HP on this one... don't like how everything's injection molded crap nowadays

    Strengths: This is an HP Genuine cartridge. If I use non-HP cartridges, I could void the waranty. Has a nice pull tab on the side of the box to open.

    Weaknesses:HP's price. I paid $58.07 for this off Buy.com, the retail price is $69.99 which I think is insanely expensive.

    Overall Evaluation: This cartridge is supposed to last 2,000 pages. My previous one lasted about 2,500 pages (but I print mostly invoices which lots of white space on the paper). I hope that the extra money I'm paying for the genuine HP cartridge will help to prolong the life of the printer. I've seen some of the compatiable remanufactured cartridges spill toner all over the inside of the printer. I just wish the genuine HP cartridges were less expensive. The print outs are crisp and clean. Looks GREAT!
