Help CenterContact UsShipping PolicyReturns PolicyPrivacy Policy
What ink does the HP PageWide Pro 452 Series use?

Which printers does this 452 Series page cover?

Can HP 972X replace standard HP 972A?

What comes in the Starink HP 972X 4-Pack?

How many pages does Starink HP 972X print?

Is page yield per cartridge or per 4-Pack?

Page yield applies to each individual cartridge. Black yields up to 10,000 pages, and each color yields up to 7,000 pages. The four yields should not be added together as one total pack yield.

Do Starink HP 972X cartridges require chip transfer?

No. Each Starink compatible HP 972X cartridge includes a pre-installed Smart Chip. Install it without transferring a chip from an old cartridge.

Can I replace each HP 972X color separately?

Yes. Black, Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow are supplied as separate cartridges. Each color can be replaced individually when needed.

Will a firmware update affect cartridge recognition?

A printer firmware update can change how cartridges are recognized. Compatibility with every future update cannot be guaranteed. If recognition changes after an update, see our guide on what to check when a firmware update blocks an ink cartridge or contact Starink with your exact printer model and the message shown.

Can I use this ink in a 452 Series printer from another region?

Check the cartridge family before ordering. HP cartridge numbers can vary by sales region. This Starink HP 972X 4-Pack is intended for the listed printers that use HP 972A or 972X; a similar printer name alone does not confirm the cartridge number.
