HP 301 (Black/3-Colour)

When choosing between the HP 301 (Black/3-Colour) and the HP 301 (Black) cartridge, the primary distinction lies in the package contents and colour range offered. The Black/3-Colour bundle provides better overall value by including two cartridges—one Black and one multi-colour unit—whereas the single Black cartridge contains only the black ink component. Consequently, the combined yield of the multipack reaches 355 pages, significantly surpassing the 190-page yield of the standalone black cartridge. If your printing needs require both colour and black ink, the bundled option delivers more comprehensive coverage and a higher total ink volume. However, if you exclusively require replacement black ink, the single black unit offers a more direct replacement without extra colours you may not need.
