Never had an inkjet printer. Does 1 cartridge contain both black & color?

One set contains 2 black cartridges, 1 blue, 1 red, 1 yellow. I just replaced one black catridge. It works well for my printer.

No, you will have 3 color cartridges and 1 black cartridge, so a total of 4 cartridges per printer.

No, the cartridges are separate. For many inkjet printers there's a cartridge for black and a cartridge for color. For others (like this printer), there's a cartridge for black and separate cartridges for different colors.

It includes a starter cartridge, but it doesn't contain a full amount of ink. You can look up the replacement inkjet cartridge type on line.

Cheryl,Not sure, just bought the printer. I print in Black and White and use color only when I need to. They offer an "XL" ink cartridge for each color which offers additional ink over the standard cartridge thus lasts longer, but at a higher price.

There is one black cartridge and one color cartridge. Based on my past experience these XL cartridge are well worth the higher price because they last so much longer than the regular sized cartridge. The expiration date is good to March 2015 and it's been at least six months since I purchased them. Hope this helps in your decision. I would highly recommend the purchase.

Yes, as part of the basic package, you will receive one complete set of ink cartridges to get started with the printing process. After that, when you need new ink cartridges you will have to purchase them on your own.

Yes, one black ink cartridge was included in the package. However since it's not in the description you may only get the pen depending on the distributor.

I don't own this printer, but I believe the printer uses two different types of Black ink (at the same time, in different slots). So, for the printer to work, you would have to have all the color cartridges installed as well as both black cartridges - one of each type.

It cones with one black and one tricolor cartridge. Beware these cartridges are very old.The do work, but there is no hp guarantee. If the somehow damage your printer hp will not honor the warranty.

We purchased a new unit. I believe it does come with all four starter ink cartridges. We've had the unit in our office for about a year and have gone through a few of the color cartridges and the black.

Nope. None. Nada.I'm saving up for a black only laserjet instead and I haven't used this thing in over a year other than for excellent scanning. Refuse to buy magenta and yellow ink just to print a 1 page word doc in black.

I have not tried it without the color cartridges. I'm still working with the original ones that came with the printer. Actually, I'm still using the original black cartridge. I've had this printer since Oct. 2014 and print about (20-30) 42"x30" construction drawings a week. Mostly black. Why not just set the printer properties to black only to save the color ink. If you need the color at some point, you'll have it. I'm assuming you don't own this printer, otherwise you could have found out for yourself.

Not sure, I also print 99% of my plans in black & white. So my color cartridges that came with the printer are still full.

Yes you get both for $25.00, but the black cartridge did not work displayed empty.

No, but the black cartridge only worked for about 2 applications and then I had to throw it out. But the supplier DID send a replacement and that seems to be working. The colored cartridges have worked fine. I sure hope nothing bursts in MY printer. And I won't be purchasing any more of these remanufactured items.

When you buy it, it does come with both black and color ink. But it's said that the ink that comes with printers is not as long lasting as the ink you buy in the stores...so it won't be long before you are buying some

after reading all of this im still confused....will THIS PRINTER IN PARTICULAR print black & white even if the color ink isn't in the printer?
