@MJBFoo,

Welcome to our HP Community forum!

As far as I understand it, the HP 902 and HP 923 ink cartridges are not interchangeable, as they are designed for different printer models and have distinct specifications. Here's why:

---

Key Differences Between HP 902 and HP 923 Cartridges:

1. Printer Compatibility:

• HP 902 ink cartridges are typically used in HP OfficeJet 6950 series and similar models.
• HP 923 ink cartridges are designed for HP OfficeJet 8000, 9000 series, and other models in the HP OfficeJet Pro series.

 

2. Cartridge Shape and Size:

• These cartridges have different shapes and sizes, and the ink reservoirs are tailored to fit specific printer designs.

 

3. Ink Formulation:

• The ink formulation in each cartridge might differ, meaning the colors, quality, and performance could be affected if you try to use an incompatible cartridge.

Conclusion:

• Using a 902 cartridge in a printer that requires a 923, or vice versa, will likely result in error messages or a failure to print.
• Stick to the recommended cartridge model specified for your printer to ensure proper functionality and print quality.

If you're unsure which cartridge your printer uses, you can check your printer’s manual or refer to the cartridge slot labels on your printer for guidance.

Let me know if you'd like help finding compatible cartridges for your printer!
