363 Black Ink Cartridge
These are some of the printers that
go with HP 363 black ink cartridges
The black HP 363 ink cartridge
comes in different sizes capacity wise. The actual ink
containers aren't any different size wise but it's how
much ink is in them. When you first buy your printer
it will come with the minimal of ink. Just like when you
buy a car it only has maybe a gallon in it, just enough to
get you home if you're lucky.
It's the same with your new printer. Just enough to do a few
pages and then it runs out and the HP 363
ink cartridge needs refilling or probably more to the
point it needs replacing. Again there are different sizes of
capacity. HP use two sizes called Standard and Value.
Standard usually has a capacity of just 6ml of ink and is OK
for moderate use. Value usually has a capacity of 17ml
giving more than 2 times more prints and because you're
buying in bulk it is cheaper per print This is a large
fill version of the HP 363 ink cartridge and costs less per ml
of ink. this is therefore most suitable for customers who print
regularly. This cartridge is called 363xl.
Buying Compatible 363 Black Ink Cartridges.
When you buy compatible or remanufactured 363 ink cartridges
then you usually get bigger capacity ones anyway than the
standard HP 363 ink cartridge and they're cheaper so
giving you greater value for your money!
Plus the remanufacturing of high use consumable
cartridges seriously helps the environment and land fill
sites
The 363 Black Ink Cartridge is
usually the one that gets used up first especially if your
doing a lot of text printing, so buying the cheaper compatible
ink cartridges will certainly help you save quite a bit of
money over the long term.
HP Vivera Inks provide vivid, and crisp, laser-quality
documents. For optimal performance, the inks are formulated to
resist fading, smudging & bleeding-and are specially
designed for use in your HP printer.
HP 363 ink cartridge page yield (black and
white) 410 pages*
Page yield note,
*Tested in HP Photosmart D7360 Printer. Average based on
ISO/IEC 24711 or HP testing methodology and continuous
printing. Actual yield varies considerably based on content of
printed pages and other factors.
HP 363XL Black Ink Cartridge, Page yield (black and
white)
1000 pages*. *Approximate yield. Actual yield depends on
printer and specific use.
How HP displays page yield data

HP publishes specific page yield numbers for each cartridge
that is recommended for each inkjet printer. Generally this
will be the ISO standard yield. The major exception is for
cartridges that are used primarily for photo printing, for
which HP publishes photo yield.
Example of individual yields on HP printer
packaging
For select printers that have individual colour
ink cartridges, HP publishes a 3-colour composite page
yield.

The composite yield is based upon the ISO 24711
reporting methodology, which provides for a single average
reporting yield for Cyan, Magenta and Yellow ink cartridges.
Black is reported separately as an individual yield.
Example of composite CMY yields on HP printer packaging
Actual yield will vary depending upon the amount of content
on the page. Obviously highly "dense" documents, such as the
text document below, may yield fewer pages than the ISO
standard, while less dense one's such as the organisation chart
below, would yield more pages than the standard. Printing that
uses primarily one colour like a high use of cyan for example
could cause lower yields for that colour and higher yields for
colours not heavily used. The yield you experience will depend
upon the content that you print.

Some inkjet users print a few pages at a time and hours,
sometimes days, pass between print jobs. With this kind of
start/stop printing, inkjet printers use some ink to keep print
nozzles clear and ink flowing smoothly. This is critical to
maintain the health of your printer and ensure that you
continue to experience the same great print quality that your
printer delivered when it was new. However, it can cause your
yields to be lower than if you printed the same content
continuously.
Some HP inkjet printers use ink from the first cartridges
installed for printer start up. This one-time ink usage is not
included in the ISO 24711 test and could impact the yield for
your very first cartridge. Also, some HP inkjet printers
include an "introductory cartridge" in the printer box, which
may print less than an HP replacement cartridge. HP's printer
packaging indicates whether introductory cartridges are
included with the printer.
What is ISO?
ISO (International Organization for Standardization) is the
world's largest developer and publisher of International
Standards.
ISO is a network of the national standards institutes of 157
countries, one member per country, with a Central Secretariat
in Geneva, Switzerland, that co-ordinates the system.
ISO is a non-governmental organisation that forms a bridge
between the public and private sectors. On the one hand, many
of its member institutes are part of the governmental structure
of their countries or are mandated by their government. On the
other hand, other members have their roots uniquely in the
private sector, having been set up by national partnerships of
industry associations.
Therefore, ISO enables a consensus to be reached on
solutions that meet both the requirements of business and the
broader needs of society. For more information on ISO see
http://www.iso.org
HP publishes page yield data based on the ISO standard for
measuring ink cartridge yields (ISO/IEC 24711):
* The test is based on a standard suite
of five pages printed consecutively until the ink cartridge
reaches its end-of-life. A cartridge is determined to be at
end-of-life when the test pages fade or, for some printers,
when the printer automatically stops due to out-of-ink
detection.
* To account for variations that may
occur, a minimum of 3 cartridges of each cartridge type is
tested in each of 3 printers.
* The ISO test does not account for ink
used for printer start-up. The standard specifies that after
the printer completes initial start up, the cartridges must be
removed and replaced with new cartridges prior to measuring
yield.
