HP DeskWriter ink comes in two cartridges: a compatible black ink that replaces the HP 51626A and a remanufactured tri-color ink that replaces the HP 49. Both are standard capacity and made for the older DeskWriter inkjet printers.
HP DeskWriter printers and their cartridges
The DeskWriter series is a line of inkjet printers that uses two cartridges: one black and one tri-color. Each cartridge here matches one of those two slots, so a full set takes one of each.
Colors and page yields
- Black: compatible ink that replaces the HP 51626A, standard capacity, with a page yield of 794.
- Tri-Color: remanufactured ink that replaces the HP 49, standard capacity, with a page yield of 310.
Compatible cartridges cost less than new name-brand cartridges, which makes them a practical choice for an older printer that sees light use.
Finding the right DeskWriter model
Models in the series include the DeskWriter 510, DeskWriter 520, DeskWriter 540, DeskWriter 550C and DeskWriter 560C. Check the cartridge number printed on your current cartridge, then match it to the HP 51626A for black or the HP 49 for tri-color. Pick your exact model to see the supplies that fit it.
