Frequently Asked Questions

Which cartridges are in this 8 Color Set?

The set is built from the three 651A color cartridges: CE341A cyan, CE342A yellow and CE343A magenta — eight color cartridges in total, for $739.85. There is no black cartridge in this box; the black CE340A is sold separately.

Why would we stock colors without the black?

Because color and black consumption rarely march together. A site whose color cartridges cycle quickly — graphics, marketing proofs, large-format color work — can burn through several sets of colors in the life of a slower black stock held under a separate order. This box restocks the color side on its own rhythm.

What is each color cartridge rated at?

Each of the three colors — CE341A, CE342A and CE343A — is rated at 16,000 pages at standard coverage. High-coverage color work, such as full-page backgrounds and photographs, will use them considerably faster than that figure suggests.

How will the cartridges be divided among the three colors?

The listing is sold as an eight-cartridge color set across the three codes; check the box contents against the codes on delivery and store each color with its own shelf position. If your work leans heavily on one color — cyan in corporate-blue documents, for example — that is the color whose shelf stock to watch.

Can these colors be fitted alongside a black from another purchase?

Yes. Cartridges are independent units; a CE341A from this set works in the same machine alongside a CE340A black bought on its own at any other time. Nothing requires all four positions to come from one box.

What cover and support apply to this set?

Every cartridge carries a 1-year warranty and 1-year free returns; the shipping & returns page documents the terms. Support answers Monday–Friday, 9 AM–5 PM CST, and stock is dispatched from IL, PA, GA and CA.

How do we tell which of the three colors in this set is the one actually running low?

Print the M775's supplies or color test page and read the bands one by one: each color prints its own strip, and the pale or broken strip names the slot that is failing. That matters with a set like this, because a print that looks wrong overall is usually one color — a CE341A, CE342A or CE343A — giving out while the other two are still healthy. Swap only the cartridge the test page indicts and leave the sound ones in place.

We fitted two cartridges from the set today. How should the other six wait their turn?

Keep them sealed in their packaging, grouped by color in the shelf positions you set aside for each code. A sealed 651A color cartridge does not lose its rating sitting on a shelf, so there is no pressure to open units early — and every reason not to, since an opened cartridge invites dust and handling damage. When a slot calls, take the matching code from its group and fit that one alone.

Eight similar boxes invite a wrong-color grab. How do we prevent it?

Read the stamp, not the shelf position. CE341A, CE342A and CE343A differ by a single digit, and the boxes look near-identical under storeroom lighting. Before any unit is opened, match the code on the cartridge itself against the color of the slot being filled, and make that check a habit for anyone who draws stock. It takes five seconds and prevents the one error this set makes possible: a healthy cartridge opened for the wrong slot and a deadline spent undoing it.

Empties from an eight-cartridge set accumulate quickly. How should they be handled?

Give the spent units their own collection spot away from the sealed stock, so an empty never gets carried back to the shelf as if it were a spare. Keep each empty until its replacement has printed a few normal jobs — that way, if output still looks wrong, you can rule the new cartridge in or out with certainty. Once a replacement is proven, send the empties out together through your recycling channel rather than one at a time.

About This 651A Color-Only Set

This is the set for color-led workloads on the Color LaserJet Enterprise 700 MFP M775 family: eight cartridges spanning cyan, yellow and magenta, deliberately without black, so color stock can be managed on the schedule color work actually sets. The matching black CE340A is stocked separately for the same reason.

The complete four-cartridge set and each individual cartridge are also available across our HP range.

One 651A eight-color set serves the full range — Color LaserJet MFP M775, Color LaserJet MFP M775d, Color LaserJet MFP M775f, Color LaserJet MFP M775z and Color LaserJet MFP M775dn. Each slot can be topped up singly when it runs low: the 651A cyan (CE341A) single, the 651A yellow (CE342A) single, the 651A magenta (CE343A) single and the 651A black (CE340A) single.
