The naming here trips people up, so here is the short version: in this family, 308A is the black cartridge and 311A covers the color cartridges. Together they serve the Color LaserJet 3500, 3550, 3700, and 3750 series — models like the 3500n, the 3700dn, and the 3750dtn all take this same set. A complete refresh is the black 308A plus the three color 311A cartridges, each installing on its own. This family ships in a single standard size with no high-yield X option, so there is exactly one capacity to choose from. Clever Supplies stocks the set in genuine HP originals and compatible replacements, giving you both the factory-backed route and the budget-friendly one. For these mid-range color workgroup printers, the 308A/311A family is the supply line to know.

Frequently Asked Questions
What do HP 308A and 311A mean — are they different cartridges?
The naming trips people up: in this family, 308A is the black cartridge and 311A covers the color cartridges. Confirm your printer is a Color LaserJet 3500, 3550, 3700, or 3750 series model in the list below, and check that your current cartridge shows 308A or 311A. Both matching means a correct fit.
Should I buy genuine HP or compatible 308A/311A cartridges?
Genuine HP 308A/311A cartridges are manufactured by HP with HP warranty support. Compatible cartridges are built by third parties to fit the same 3500 through 3750 series printers at a lower price. Installation is identical either way, so the decision usually comes down to how much weight you put on the HP brand versus the savings on compatibles.
Can I mix and match, replacing only the empty HP 308A/311A colors?
Yes — each cartridge is fully independent, so you can replace just the empty black or just one depleted color. Full four-cartridge sets are convenient for a complete refresh, but the printer never requires all four to be changed at once.
