HP DesignJet T650 Supplies FAQ
What ink cartridges does the HP DesignJet T650 use?
The HP DesignJet T650 uses HP 712 Bright Office Ink cartridges. These dye-based inks are specifically designed for technical document printing and deliver crisp lines and vivid colors on plain paper. Available colors include black, cyan, magenta, and yellow, with both standard 29ml and high-yield 80ml black options.
How often should I replace HP 712 ink cartridges in my T650?
Replace HP 712 cartridges when your printer indicates low ink levels or print quality begins to decline. Standard 29ml cartridges typically yield 400-500 A1-size pages, while the high-yield 80ml black cartridge produces approximately 1,400 A1 pages. For high-volume users, we recommend keeping spare cartridges on hand to avoid downtime.
Can I use compatible or remanufactured inks in my HP DesignJet T650?
While compatible inks may work, we strongly recommend genuine HP 712 cartridges for optimal performance. Genuine HP inks are formulated to extend printhead life, prevent clogging, and maintain print quality. Using non-genuine inks may void your printer warranty and can lead to costly repairs.
What's the difference between HP 712 standard and high-yield cartridges?
HP 712 high-yield cartridges contain 80ml of ink versus 29ml in standard cartridges, providing nearly triple the page yield. High-yield cartridges offer better value for high-volume printing environments, reducing cost per page and the frequency of cartridge changes. Only available in black for the T650 series.
How do I properly store HP 712 ink cartridges?
Store HP 712 cartridges in their original packaging in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep cartridges at room temperature (59-95°F) and avoid extreme temperature fluctuations. Properly stored cartridges can maintain quality for up to 18 months from the manufacturer's date.
What maintenance supplies does my HP DesignJet T650 need?
Besides ink cartridges, your T650 may occasionally need printhead cleaning or replacement, depending on usage. Regular cleaning cycles using genuine HP supplies help maintain optimal print quality. For heavy-use environments, consider our maintenance kit options to keep your plotter running smoothly.
