What Ink Does the HP DeskJet 2723e Use?

by William Elward Last Updated: October 14, 2026

Quick answer: The HP DeskJet 2723e all-in-one uses two HP 67 cartridges: one black and one tri-color. The high-yield HP 67XL versions fit too. Castle Ink stocks remanufactured 67XL Black, 67XL Tri-color, a 67XL 2-pack and an extra-high-yield 67XXL Black.

The 2723e is a retailer version of HP's DeskJet 2700e series and takes the same ink as the DeskJet 2755e and 2700. Important: the "e" means it's HP+ eligible. If HP+ was turned on during setup, HP says the printer requires Original HP ink for its lifetime, and remanufactured cartridges won't work.

What Ink Cartridges Does the HP DeskJet 2723e Take?

Cartridge	HP part no.	Approx. yield	Castle Ink option
HP 67 Black	3YM56AN	~120 pages	—
HP 67 Tri-color	3YM55AN	~100 pages	—
HP 67XL Black	3YM57AN	~240 pages	Remanufactured 67XL Black
HP 67XL Tri-color	3YM58AN	~200 pages	Remanufactured 67XL Tri-color

HP 305 is the European version and won't work in a U.S. printer. HP 65 looks almost identical but fits older DeskJet 2600 and 3700 models, not the 2723e.

Is HP 67XL Worth It?

Yes: HP 67 standard cartridges hold enough for only about 100 to 120 pages. On October 14, 2026, Staples listed Original HP 67XL black at $35.89 and 67XL tri-color at $36.89. Our remanufactured 67XL black is $32.95 and tri-color $34.95, or $59.95 for the pair, and our 67XXL black ($28.99) is the best value for text.

Before you switch from HP ink: check that HP+ isn't active (in HP Smart, look for HP+ under your account or printer settings) and turn off automatic firmware updates, which can block non-HP chips.

How Do I Replace the Ink in the HP DeskJet 2723e?

Turn the printer on, then open the front door and the cartridge access door.
Wait for the carriage to move to the center and stop.
Press down on the old cartridge to release it and pull it out.
Pull the plastic tape off the new cartridge by its pink tab, without touching the contacts.
Slide it into its slot until it clicks, close the doors and align when prompted.

Which Other Printers Use HP 67?

The DeskJet 2700, 2734e, 2755e, 2800e, 4133e, 4155e and 4200e series, and the ENVY 6000 and 6400 series.

What DeskJet 2723e owners ask

These are the questions that come up most for this printer and its 2700e-series twins in HP's support community and owner reviews, answered in our words.

The cartridge door won't close after I install a cartridge.

The cartridge isn't fully seated or it's the wrong size. Push it down and back until it clicks, and confirm it's an HP 67, not a 65 or 305.

New cartridges aren't recognized or show empty.

Remove and reseat them, check the tape is off and wipe the contacts. If HP+ is active, non-HP cartridges are refused by design.

Paper feeds crooked and then jams the carriage.

Load fewer sheets, slide the width guide against the stack and clear any scraps from the carriage path. The tray holds only 60 sheets.

It keeps dropping off Wi-Fi.

The 2723e supports dual-band Wi-Fi. Assign it a fixed IP address in your router and keep HP Smart updated; restart the printer after router changes.

DeskJet 2723e quirks worth knowing

HP lists it as discontinued and points buyers to the DeskJet 2755e, which takes the same ink.
HP rates it at 7.5 pages a minute in black and 5.5 in color.
It prints, copies and scans and connects by dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or USB.
There's no document feeder; two-sided printing is manual, and HP rates the duty cycle at 1,000 pages a month.
