    3-year warranty on our own-brand cartridges
    We are proud of our own-brand cartridges, so we’ve made trying them a no-brainer. If within three years of purchase you have any problem whatsoever, we’ll happily offer either a replacement or a refund.
    Returning items is easy—it takes just a few minutes. But our return rate is very low, so you’ll be unlikely to need it.
    We are confident that no other own-brand cartridges are better than ours. They produce vibrant prints with accurate colour densities and dark blacks—and their page yields are as good as the genuines, if not better. Give them a try, and see why our customers love them.
    Our own-brand cartridges are incredibly reliable for three reasons:
    1. We are the UK’s biggest seller of own-brand cartridges, and we have invested a lot in optimising them.
    2. We are dedicated to quality. Every own-brand cartridge is performance-tested before it leaves the factory.
    3. We constantly monitor customer feedback, and quickly resolve any issues.
  • Printer protection guarantee
    Our cartridges won't damage your printer—guaranteed
    Some people worry that own-brand cartridges might damage their printers. We know from experience that ours don’t.
    To reassure you, we guarantee that we’ll repair or replace your printer—for free—in the unlikely event that it gets damaged by an own-brand cartridge. This is regardless of how old your printer is. We can afford to offer this because problems are almost unheard of.
    Some people whose printers are less than a year old worry that an own-brand cartridge might invalidate the manufacturer’s warranty. This isn’t true. By law, the manufacturers aren’t allowed to invalidate your warranty if you use own-brand cartridges. If something does go wrong, and our own-brand cartridges are to blame, we’ll take over the manufacturer’s warranty, offer you phone support and repair or replace your printer if needed.

    In summary, there’s zero risk in using our own-brand cartridges.

  • Hi, can you please advise where I can get hold of chemical safety data sheets for HP LaserJet 4240, 4250 and 4350 toner cartrdiges? I cannot find them on your website. They are sets of sheets that explain to you the chemical composition of each product. This is just for health and safety purposes? Thanks, Sam.

    We don't publish MSDS data sheets on the website. However, if you can contact customer services it's possible that we'll be able to send you an MSDS data sheet for the compatible HP 42A toner, or whichever other cartridges you're interested in purchasing.

  • At the reduced price of nearly two thirds cheaper, can this compatible HP 42A cartridge be as good as a geniune HP Laserjet cartridge? Will it last as long and produce the same quality printing?

    Compatible HP 42A toner quality

    You should see very little or no difference in terms of print quality between the compatible HP 42A toner and the OEM toner. The capacity of this compatible HP Q5942A toner is 10,000 pages which matches the genuine HP 42A printer cartridge.

    By Mike on

    I ran out of ink in the middle of an urgent printing job, and found Cartridge Save online. The prices seemed very competitive, and so I ordered. The delivery was right on time and the product has been really good. I guess a few weeks and I will order from them again.
