Smart Ink Compatible Ink Cartridge Replacement for HP 953XL 953 XL 4 Multipack (Black XL & C/M/Y) with Advanced Chip Technology to use with HP Officejet pro 7720 7730 7740 8710 8715 8720 8725 Printer

Excellent product and customer service! Unfortunately, when I first installed the ink cartridges, my printer displayed several error messages. I contacted the company using the QR code, and someone responded almost immediately. They offered to send a replacement, which was shipped the very next day. When I got home, the replacement ink had arrived. I installed it, and it worked instantly with no issues at all! I tested the ink, and everything is printing perfectly so far. I usually pay around £100 for printer ink, so I’m extremely happy with the money I’ve saved. I’m also very impressed by how quickly the company responded and resolved the problem. Excellent customer service thank you!

Having been victim to the ludicrous prices charged for “original” cartridges these days, coupled with attempts to restrict non-original products working in HP printers, I am delighted to say these aftermarket cartridges actually work! You may have to disable the software auto-updates in your printer, as clearly described in the cartridge instructions, but I managed all this and had the printer up and running again in a few minutes despite my lack of tech skills. Value for money is obviously good, print quality indistinguishable from HP, and the friendly instructions and customer service offer all instil confidence. I’m still on my first set of these cartridges, but they continue to work after the heatwave summer and I will definitely reorder when the time comes.

Using these in an HP OfficeJet Pro 7720. It had already updated to April 2026 firmware (2615B — but have turned off auto-updates now) and these worked perfectly; printer reports altered or cloned cartridges but they work flawlessly. Easy to install and fit just like originals they were replacing. I don’t print a huge amount, but what I have printed with these has been perfectly reproduced; not tried photos yet, but mono and colour documents on standard paper have been fine. Not used enough to comment on capacity but the ink levels have barely moved so far. Obviously this depends on what you’re printing. But no complaints so far, will definitely use again. Absolutely worth it for me compared to the ridiculous cost of genuine cartridges…

Quick delivery but you can tell the quality difference. Does the job. Cant complain for the price.

FINAL UPDATE: No more chasing phantom ink problem. **Full refund provided. Great service. Fast response. Good by HP. Forever. UPDATE 2024-02-04: new 4pk carts from SmartInk (HP 7740) SUMMARY: Had it all working and printing... Then hours later, HP7740 got upset spouting every error it could muster! So inserted all SmartInk colours - all OK! Apart from one non-reading cartridge chip (to be confirmed) **** SmartInk LiveChat response - fast and brilliant! **** IMPORTANT: you will need a earlier firmware version!! And disable auto-update. Our printer has version: EDWINXPP1N002.1849A.00 (and is recommended by SmartInk). DETAILS: Had it printing OK after inserting a Magenta SmartInk HP953XL cartridge! However... This upset HP, as the next morning (with no printing activity), the 7740 complained about a different cartridge altogether!? Tried reinserting, power off, contacts cleaned, etc etc (as per online and SmartInk instructions!) All the various error messages listed and online appeared! Plus a new error: "This printer is not designed to use continuous ink systems. To resume printing, remove continuous ink system and install original HP (or compatible) cartridges." Learning point: may be don't mix non-HP brands?? Then, inserted all SmartInk colour catridges, keeping the HP Black. All SmartInk cartridges accepted! With the exception of the Magenta!? (yes, the one that worked for 8 magenta test pages). SmartInk suspect this was a non-readable/intermittent chip. LiveChat: responded in seconds, verified order etc. When through a few items, but I'd already completed those (and more). So Kevin agreed to ship replacements. Comment: HP have paid out $millions in out-of-court settlements for this (apparent) activity, which could be interpreted as blocking the use of non-HP ink! Dear HP, the "hate me less" ad compaign was hilarious! Just cut the ink prices to 30-40%, and we'd probably have stayed with HP. Goodbye HP. Just hope the replacement Magenta works! Since my firmware was already downgraded, and upgrades blocked, I decided to block the printer's access to the internet too (and WiFi off) - in case it's communicating that way (i.e. added a Firewall rule, using the printers (static!) IP address) ORIGINAL POST: Print quality is pretty good. A quality product it seems. NB: Only installed Magenta & printed 2 pages: so not a long-term score! Be prepared to bypass the HP 'rejection of non-HP ink' errors !!! eg "Incompatible ink error": this is HP's doing, not restricted to Smart Ink. Downgrade the firmware? Do this by finding a previous version of printer firmware (see online). There should be a previous version that does NOTt outrightly reject 'non-HP' ink cartridges! Install the firmware. Then... also disable the automatic firmware updating! See instructions supplied in Smart Ink box!!! NB: I had already done this 2-3 years ago, so as to use ink from Cartridge People (who guarantee compatibility btw, but is higher cost) Extra guidance: "System Supply Issue": this may be the ink-channel in the printhead running 'empty' or dry. Remove the printhead, remove cartridges. Ink will spread - cover areas etc etc. Inspect back of the cartridge slots within the printhead: small containers at back should have fluid, visible when tilted etc. Use a torch. If one ink slot is 'dry', insert the problem cartridge/colour. Have the printhead on its back. Allow gravity (and squeeze of the cartridge?) to get some ink back in the printhead. You may need to use Iso-alchohol spray to clean up. At your own risk. Refit the printhead in the printer. Power On: should align and clean printhead. Repeat this cycle until it prints the alignment test page. Print something to test the colours. Worked for me, but might not for you. At your own risk. Alternative for me, was a new printer (which WILL NEVER BE AN H-P AGAIN!)

Brought a set of 953xl because of the excellent value, unfortunately the set didn't work as HP updated their firmware. Spoken to Anna and Alice from smart ink customer service and they were very helpful and friendly, after following the online instructions and still couldn't get it to work. Reported to them and send me a new set with the latest chips next day without questions. Received them and work straight out from the box with no problem. Both quality of ink and customer service are 5 stars. Going to order a spare set now and definitely would recommend smart ink to everyone.

Prompt delivery and pleased with product
