Hi Chuckie,
I am sorry that the cartridge didn’t last long for you. I can understand if you are not happy, but rest assured that we take your feedback very seriously.
Perhaps you were printing denser printouts with this cartridge. Ink usage determines how long it lasts. High-density prints (such as images and graphs) will use more ink, especially if the paper is highly absorbent and the surrounding air is dry.
If the poor performance you experienced appears to be due to a defective cartridge, please check about returning it to us. Step-by-step instructions for completing the return and exchange process is covered at: store.hp.com/us/en/cv/returnsandexchanges
This is the same size as the XL so it doesn't fit in the smaller spot and without that, I can't print.

Hi Ally,
I'm sorry for the confusion and that the cartridge wasn't what you expected. It is still a correct cartridge for your printer, just not the Photo one you wanted. It should fit into the slot for the black cartridge.
A few years ago, HP found that customers were sometimes mistaking the cartridges labeled 'Photo Black' for the regular black cartridges. Because of that, HP renamed the cartridges 'Photo' rather than 'Photo Black'. Here is a link to some online information about the renaming: support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01839024
HP ink always gets the job done, and of course the multi-packs are the best deal. The only caution I would give to others is not to depend on the page estimates (number of pages each ink cartridge will print). In my experience they have seriously over-estimated the number of pages. I know HP uses some kind of "accepted" standard in showing page estimates, but whoever came up with that is probably not an end-user of the product.
