HP 201 Standard vs. High-Yield: Which Should You Buy?
| Version | Part numbers | Black yield | Color yield |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard (201A) | CF400A Bk / CF401A C / CF403A M / CF402A Y (4-pack CF400AQ1) | 1,420 | 1,330 |
| High Yield (201X) | CF400X Bk / CF401X C / CF403X M / CF402X Y (black 2-pack CF400XD; CMY 3-pack CF253XM) | 2,800 | 2,300 |
All versions fit the same printers. Higher-yield cartridges cost more up front but less per page, so they make sense if you print regularly.

Chips, Printer Messages & Installation
HP LaserJet printers may show a "non-HP supply" or "used supply" notice. Select OK or Continue and print as usual. If a cartridge isn't recognized, remove it, check that all packing tape and the clip are off, and reseat it firmly. Some HP firmware updates have been known to reject third-party chips, so consider turning off automatic firmware updates.

Compatible vs. Remanufactured vs. Original
Original (OEM) cartridges are new from the printer brand and cost the most. Compatible toner, like this one, is newly manufactured from new components to the original's specifications and tested before shipping. Remanufactured cartridges are refilled originals. Castle Ink sells compatible (newly manufactured) toner and drums, and remanufactured inkjet cartridges.

Can I use a look-alike cartridge instead of HP 201?

Will this void my printer warranty?
No. Under the U.S. Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, a manufacturer can't void your printer warranty just because you used a third-party or remanufactured supply. If a non-original cartridge directly caused damage, that specific repair might not be covered.

How long can I store it?
Store it sealed, at room temperature and out of direct sunlight, and use it within about 24 months for best results. Once opened, install it promptly.
