HP 652A & 654A
Two black cartridges and one shared color set run HP's enterprise 600-series color machines. The standard black is the 652A (CF320A); the high-yield black is the 654X (CF330X), built to stretch the interval between black changes on the hardest-working machines. Cyan, yellow and magenta come as CF331A, CF332A and CF333A — the color half of the 654A family. One honest note before you order: HP's standard-yield 654A black, code CF330A, is documented for these printers but is not among this page's listings — the black shelf here is the 652A standard and the 654X high-yield.
These are big, shared enterprise boxes, and that shapes how they should be fed. The four cartridges register as a matched set, which keeps color output consistent across long runs of presentations and reports. On a shared multifunction — the kind a whole department leans on — one dead color channel stalls everyone, not just the person who pressed print. That is why experienced IT teams treat the spare black as non-negotiable stock: black does most of the work on mixed office output, and it is the cartridge most likely to run out the night before a deadline.

One further listing is named for a machine rather than the family: the Enterprise 600 Color M651 4 Color Set carries the same four cartridges for buyers who shop by printer model.
Which cartridge should you buy?
Choose the black by volume first. Offices that print a few hundred pages a week are well served by the standard CF320A; departments that measure output in thousands belong on the high-yield CF330X, which trades a higher shelf price for far fewer interruptions and a lower cost on every page. For colors, resist the urge to replace the whole set when one channel fades — the three colors empty at genuinely different rates, and singles exist so you only buy the one that is done. Full 4 Color Sets make sense at a planned refresh or when a new machine joins the fleet. Compatible cartridges here carry a 1-year warranty and 1-year returns.
Chip, toner and everyday use
The printer reports each of the four channels separately, and the code in the warning message is the one to reorder — on shared machines, that habit prevents the classic mistake of a well-meaning colleague swapping the wrong color. Install with the machine's guide marks, push until the cartridge seats with a click, and let the printer finish its calibration before judging the first page; these enterprise units run a short registration routine after a change. Store spares flat, sealed and out of direct light, and rotate stock so the oldest cartridge goes in first.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know whether my printer takes 652A or 654A cartridges?
Read the part numbers on the cartridges you pull out. A CF320A black means your machine is running the 652A black; CF331A through CF333A mark the shared colors. Both blacks on this page fit the same enterprise machines — the difference is yield, not fit.
Should I stock the 654X high-yield black?
If your Color LaserJet M680 or its siblings print hundreds of pages a week, yes — the CF330X cuts swap frequency and per-page cost where it matters. A low-volume office will not feel the benefit and can stay with the standard black.
One color ran out — do I have to replace all three?
No. Each color is a separate cartridge with its own chip and its own supply gauge. Order the single that is empty; the 3 Color and 6 Color sets are there for planned refreshes, not emergencies.
