The websites Digital Photography Now and photo-i.co.uk have both taken an in-depth look at the new No.59 Black and White Ink Cartridge from HP, which was announced earlier in the week. This cartridge will be compatible with most of the new printers that HP are about to introduce, including the top-of-the-range HP Photosmart 7960.

This is what DP-Now editor Ian Burley has to say in his 4-page article about the No.59 cartridge:

“HP’s new No.59 ink cartridge really does make the job of producing consistently neutral black and white prints easy without having to resort to complicated printer profiling. Indeed, I’m so impressed by the results I have seen, I’d recommend professionals to look at this offering from HP if they are looking for saleable quality professional mono printing, even though HP is not targeting the pro market here. HP even confidently answers some challenges when it comes to print longevity.”
