Compatible HP 23 Tri-Color -Ink (C1823D)

Tri-Color -Ink Toner, compatible with HP 23

It is probably common knowledge that so-called genuine printing ink toners made by the original manufacturers are ridiculously expensive, for no good apparent reason. Although I have been buying "genuine" replacement cartridges for a very long time, when a recent need for replacement occurred, I decided to explore whether other cheaper options were available, and discovered Quest4. I acquired this toner cartridge on 7 April 2017, at a price considerably lower that I would have paid if I had bought a "genuine" HP 23 from say Staples or The Office Place. It is thus too early to assess whether the Quest4 toner will prove equal to, or even superior to the "genuine HP 23" toner, in terms of print clarity and number of printed pages that result. To give it the benefit of the doubt, I have awarded three stars. Obviously the hope is it will prove to be worthy of 5 stars. Stay tuned. Cedric
