Running into HP\u00ae 564\u00a0cartridge\u00a0problems? Or are you simply looking to learn more about your beloved HP 564? \u00a0We will go over the basics here. From technical specs to common problem troubleshooting tips, this quick guide will teach you everything you need to know so you can get the most out of your cartridges.<\/p>\n

The HP 564 ink cartridge is a popular series for home users and casual photographers. There are many different printers that work with this series and you can find these cartridges pretty much anywhere ink cartridges are sold. With a multi-cartridge set up, you are able to replace each color as needed. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

HP 564 Cartridge Colors<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are five different 564 cartridges: black, cyan, magenta, yellow and photo black. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It’s important to note that\u00a0some HP printers only take four out of the five cartridges<\/em>. The photo black is a specialty cartridge that will only work with certain models, so be sure to double check your printer model number before you buy an extra cartridge you may not need. <\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

HP 564 Cartridge Sizes<\/strong><\/p>\n

You can buy cartridges in two sizes, standard yield and high yield. \u00a0High yield cartridges are more expensive, but worth the money if you print regularly. \u00a0There are some extremely affordable compatible\u00a0options that are worth considering too, but we will get into that later. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For now, let\u2019s get to know our cartridges a little bit better with technical specs:<\/span><\/p>\n

HP 564 Technical Specifications<\/h3>\n

As briefly mentioned earlier, the HP 564 ink series comes in two sizes: standard yield 564 and high yield 564XL. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

HP 564 vs 564XL<\/strong><\/p>\n

As the XL in the name suggests, the 564XL has more ink compared to the standard 564. All HP 564 colors are available in high yield size.<\/p>\n

If you print a lot, go for the high yield. \u00a0You\u2019ll get twice the amount of black ink and two and a half times the color ink per cartridge. \u00a0Casual printers that only print a couple of times a month should be fine sticking with the standard yield. <\/span><\/p>\n

Page yield <\/span>is the approximate number of pages that can be printed with a particular cartridge<\/span>. \u00a0It is based on 5% coverage, or roughly one quarter of a page. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For example, if your standard black cartridge offers a page yield of 250, it can print around 250 pages at 5% coverage per page. \u00a0So if you were hoping to get 250 pages of complete text, you\u2019ll probably end up needing a second cartridge.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
