HP 903XL High Yield Black Original Ink Cartridge
HP HP 903XL (T6M15AE) is a genuine HP high yield ink cartridge in black, 20 ml, rated at approx. 750 pages, made for owners of HP OfficeJet 6950 and OfficeJet Pro 6960/6970 printers who want the manufacturer's own ink rather than a compatible.
The high-yield black for the OfficeJet 6950 and OfficeJet Pro 6960/6970 — HP rates it at up to 2.5× the pages of the standard 903 black.
Original HP cartridges are recognised by the printer and the HP Smart app, so ink levels are reported correctly and you avoid the "non-HP cartridge" warnings — and the firmware updates HP printers receive can stop cartridges with cloned chips from working, which does not affect originals.
What's in the Box
- 1 × HP 903XL high yield black ink cartridge (T6M15AE)
- Colour cartridges not included (HP 903 / 903XL cyan, magenta, yellow)
What It Means in Practice
- The yield is HP's figure measured with the ISO/IEC 24711 or HP testing methodology method on a standard mixed text-and-graphics test page. Full-page colour, photos or heavy graphics use ink faster, so real page counts will be lower; plain text documents usually land close to the rating.
- Black and colours are all numbered 903 in this system — check the colour on the box before ordering.
- The printhead stays in the printer; this is the ink supply only.
- The printhead is a separate part that stays in the printer — this cartridge is only the ink supply. If print quality drops while there is still ink, the fix is usually a printhead clean from the printer menu, not another cartridge.
- Installing takes a minute: open the cartridge access door, wait for the carriage to stop, press the old cartridge to release it, and push the new one into the slot of the same colour until it clicks. Close the door and the printer recognises it.
- Keep spare cartridges sealed in their box at room temperature and install them before the date printed on the packaging; an opened cartridge is best used rather than stored.
- Empty HP cartridges can be returned for free recycling through HP Planet Partners where the programme is offered.
- HP sells its consumer and office ink cartridges by region. This is the European/EMEA version, made for printers sold in Europe, the Middle East and Africa — which covers printers bought in Cyprus, Greece or elsewhere in the EU.
What Will Not Work
- OfficeJet 8010/8020/8030 (HP 912) or OfficeJet 6830 (HP 934).
- Colour printing — black only.
- A printer bought in the US, Latin America or Asia — it is set up for that region's cartridges and can reject this European version.
- Any printer that is not in the compatibility list below — if your model is not listed, send us the model before ordering.
