Guide refreshed 9 October 2026.
Looking for HP 304XL ink in Manchester? First identify whether you need black, tri-colour or both. Then check the complete printer model and the specification of the replacement being offered.
Black and tri-colour: keep the codes separate
| Code | Cartridge | HP’s approximate yield |
|---|---|---|
| N9K08AE | HP 304XL black | 300 pages |
| N9K07AE | HP 304XL tri-colour | 300 pages |
These are genuine HP benchmarks, not a guaranteed output for every compatible cartridge. HP describes its figures as approximate averages based on ISO/IEC 24711 or its testing methodology and continuous printing; actual yield varies. See HP’s black cartridge specification and tri-colour specification.
Check your printer, not just the cartridge family
Copy the complete model from the printer label and compare it with the supplier’s compatibility information. If the printer was bought outside the UK, mention that too. A broad series name is not enough to confirm the regional cartridge required.
This archive article originally covered the following references. They are retained to help you identify your enquiry, not as an unconditional compatibility guarantee:
- DeskJet: 2600 series, 2620, 2622, 2630, 2632, 2633, 2634, 3720, 3730, 3732, 3733 All-in-One, 3735, 3750, 3760 and 3762.
- ENVY: 5010, 5020, 5030, 5032 and 5050.
What to ask about a compatible replacement
Confirm the exact cartridge type, stated yield, pack contents and support terms. If you want both colours, ask whether the quoted pack contains one black and one tri-colour cartridge rather than assuming every multipack has the same contents.
For help comparing genuine, compatible and remanufactured options, read our HP 304XL buying-options guide.
