Solved: only 7 photos from HP cartridges - HP Support Community

m_9-m · ‎02-19-2023

Hello

I own an HP Envy 6000 printer, with genuine cartridges used.

Yesterday I was only able to print 7 photos before the message appeared saying I was out of ink.

Was this due to faulty cartridges or a setting issue. Any assistance appreciated

Thank you

Which size of the photos ? Are they A4 sheets ?

Your printer use HP 67 ink cartridges with page yield of 120 sheets (ISO standard). That means in general, with page 5% text coverage you can print 120 pages.

Printing photo, normally printer covers 100% of a sheet that means printer uses 20 times more inks. 120/20 = 6, therefore 7 photos is roughly right.

Hope this helps.

Regards.

Thank you kindly for the reply.

I honestly thought I would be able to print ,more then 6-7 photos.

I was comparing print yields from previous printers I have owned
