This product is an original ink cartridge multipack from HP, type N9J72AE, consisting of one black and one colour ink cartridge. It is designed for use in inkjet printers, particularly for models from the HP DeskJet and OfficeJet series, such as the HP DeskJet 2540 AiO. The cartridge enables printing outputs in black and white and in colour with high print quality. The black ink is pigment-based, while the colour ink is dye-based. This distinction affects print characteristics: pigment ink offers better light and water resistance, especially for text, while dye ink is suitable for vibrant colours in images.

Applications
The ink cartridges are intended for use in private, educational, and small business environments. They are suitable for printing text documents, presentations, photos, and graphics. The cartridge is compatible with HP’s Business segment printers, and the print quality is also sufficient for professional applications. Use in home offices or small offices is particularly advantageous due to the standard yield capacity and easy handling.

Functions and Equipment in Detail
The multipack contains two individual cartridges: one black and one colour. The black cartridge has a fill volume of 3 ml and provides an average yield of 170 pages, while the colour cartridge also has 3 ml fill volume and achieves approximately 150 pages. These values are based on a test procedure using the HP DeskJet 2050 All-in-One series under continuous printing and ISO/IEC 24711 standard. The actual yield may vary depending on print content and settings. The cartridge is equipped with an integrated ink level monitoring system that informs the user of the fill level. A warning message is displayed when the ink level is low, allowing timely replacement preparation.

Technology Explained Simply
Inkjet technology enables precise ink delivery onto paper. The pigment ink in the black cartridge ensures sharp, water-resistant, and lightfast text that retains its quality for decades. The dye ink in the colour cartridge produces vibrant, brilliant colours, especially in images and graphics. The cartridge is designed for use in printers with an integrated print head, where the ink is drawn directly into the print head. The cartridge is fitted with a chip that enables communication with the printer and supports ink consumption display.

Compatibility and Accessories
The cartridge is compatible with a range of HP printers, including models such as HP DeskJet 1000, 1010, 1050 AiO, 1050A AiO, 1510 AiO, 2000, 2050 AiO, 2050A AiO, 2510 AiO, 2540 AiO, 3000, 3050 AiO, 3050A eAiO, 3510 eAiO series, HP ENVY 4500 eAiO, 5530 eAiO series, HP OfficeJet 2620 AiO, and 4630 eAiO series. As an alternative or successor product, the same item is offered under the designation “301 Schwarz / Tri-Color Original Tintenpatrone 2-Pack”. The cartridge is not compatible with other manufacturers, as it was specifically developed for HP printers.

Installation and Mounting
Installation is performed by inserting the cartridge into the print head, where it is slid into the designated slots. The printer recognises the cartridge once it is correctly placed. Installation requires no tools and is simple for users without technical expertise. The cartridge is intended for direct use, without additional preparation or filling.

Operational Advantages
Using original HP ink cartridges ensures reliable print quality with sharp text and vibrant colours. The cartridge is designed for easy handling, with an integrated ink level display system that alerts the user in time for replacement. Prints retain their quality over a long period, especially when using HP photo paper. The cartridge is made from 65% recycled plastic, with over 50% of the plastic derived from materials that would otherwise end up in the ocean. The cartridge is part of HP’s Planet Partners programme, which enables the return and recycling of printer cartridges. The cartridge is designed for use at a relative humidity of 20 to 80% and an operating temperature of 15 to 32 °C. Storage is recommended at temperatures from -40 to 60 °C.
