Guide refreshed 19 October 2026.
HP 83X is the high-yield black toner reference CF283X. The related standard-capacity cartridge is HP 83A (CF283A). Match the code printed on your existing cartridge and the complete printer model before you order; a shared cartridge family name is not enough to confirm every model variant.
For help checking a match, call Cartridge Care on 0161 738 1066, Monday to Friday, 9am–6pm, or request a quote.
HP 83A and 83X reference codes
| HP cartridge | Part number | Approximate original HP yield |
|---|---|---|
| 83A standard | CF283A | About 1,500 pages |
| 83X high yield | CF283X | About 2,200 pages |
HP’s estimates are based on its test methods and are not guaranteed page counts. The actual number of pages depends on print coverage, content and settings. These are original HP reference yields; they do not establish the yield of any compatible or remanufactured product.
HP’s supply information includes the M201, M125, M127 and M225 printer families for this cartridge family. The older list in this article names M201n and M125/M127/M225 variants, but suffixes and regional versions matter. Confirm your exact model against HP’s HP supplies and yield information and the support page/manual for your printer before ordering.
What to check before buying a compatible cartridge
- Read the complete printer model, including its final letters, from the printer label or settings page.
- Check whether you need standard CF283A or high-yield CF283X.
- Confirm that the supplier’s listing explicitly names your full model and gives its own product code and yield.
- Check current stock, delivery charge, returns terms and support before placing the order.
You can search CF283X products in the online catalogue. If the listing does not clearly identify your printer, contact us before ordering.
