I bought this awhile ago but I still have the box. I don't see an expiration date on this any where. I bought 2 and have had no problems. In fact I was just thinking the other day I needed to order more. Hope this helps.

If you have the package the date will be on any one of the cartridges if you do not have a cartridge in a pack there's no way to find out the expiration date what I do is I use them even after the expiration date and they appear to work just fine good luck

That's a reasonable question for the selling vendor, but Amazon forwarded it to other customers to answer! Since I bought mine months ago, I doubt that the expiration date on my box will help you. In my experience, the shelf life of these is near infinite BEFORE THE SEAL IS TAKEN OFF; they dry out or get gunked up if they sit in the printer too long after having been opened - that happened to me once on a color cartridge when I was printing mostly black.

Usually, there is an expiration date on the box, e.g. I just bought a package of 4 ink cartridges (1 black XL, 1 each Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow) to hold for when I need them, and on the box is an expiration date of "Nov. 2015." That gives me approximately 19 months. But you can be sure I'll use them well before that date.

Hi Sam - I have that very same printer! However, I've never checked the menus for an 'expiration date' of each cartridge. Mine does show levels. For example, I needed just the darker pink (magenta?) cartridge. When I put it in, it registered as full. Overall, the cartridges work great. Hope that helps.

Sorry I don't have the expiration date, it was probably on the shipping box that I returned with the old cartridge. I did buy this printer on information from an official Hewlett Packard serviceman's recommendation that he has been using the replacement for almost 2 years and that he prints documents in excess of 2000 and his was still printing perfect. I am hoping for half that. Jocelyn

The date on the package is the warranty expiration date. It DOES NOT mean that the cartridge is no good after the date.

I don't remember seeing such date. It was shipped to me on 6-22-13; With or without the expiration date, the cartridge should've yielded many more pages of printing.

Will last a good 2 or 3 years before renewing, there great! the expiration date should be on the cartridge, mine is.....

The date on the outside of the cartridge is NOT the expiration date. That is the warranty date. Please do your research people.

on the cartridge it says 2007/03/09 and this cartridge has something wrong with it. It keeps giving me a message to remove it and put it back in and if this don't work replace the cartridge. it is not working.

There is no official expiration date. The package is sealed and the cartridge inside is sealed so they should last a long time. I've been using these for years and have never had one go bad. However, some inkjet printers will only allow a cartridge to stay in place for a limited amount of time. When the package has been opened and the cartridge is installed in the printer, the ink dries out and slowly begins to thicken. After while, when the ink gets too thick, it will plug up the print head so the printer cannot operate properly. You can store a sealed ink cartridge for a long time, but you should plan to replace the ink cartridge in your printer a couple times a year to keep the ink fresh and make sure your printer will continue to operate properly. I like to write the date on the cartridge when I place it in the printer so I know how long it's been there.

I have never thought to see if there is an expiration date. I've had my supply of color and black cartridges for many months before I have to use them. Your question made me check out my supply and I noticed on the Black 564XL package which is separate from the Color cartridges, there is stamped on the package the country of origin is Malaysia with a date of APR 2015. I'm guessing that is a use-by date. Can't find any indication of a date on the 3-Color package. I keep all cartridges sealed in their original packages until ready to use. I hope this helps somewhat. Maybe HP.com has more information on their ink cartridges.

Are you looking for Amazon's stock of ink and wondering when the expiration date is of what they've got? I have a 2 pack I recently got and the expiration date is located on the back side upper left under "brother" and mine expires 2015.10.

I can't answer your exact question, but I just now (8-Aug-2015) installed an HP-98 cartridge in my OfficeJet 6310 printer that had an expiration date of Sep 2012. It seems to be working fine. The cartridge has been sealed inside the foil envelope since I purchased it. That said, if I was buying a new cartridge I'd hope to find one with at least a year left before expiration.

I do not see any expiration date on the cartridge itself. No longer hv the box.

On the ink cartridge is the expiration date. The printer detects that day and it will not work after that regardless of the ink in it. On the print heads it is just a guide for you to remember when was the last time you changed that part.
