HP 981A Cyan Cartridge 6000 Pages

The HP 981A (J3M68A) is a genuine cyan ink cartridge rated for approximately 6000 pages. It uses dye-based ink with an 8.02 pl drop size and is designed for HP PageWide Enterprise 556 and 586 series printers. This single pack suits offices that need consistent colour output at high speed.

Replaces depleted HP 981A cyan supply

The cartridge replaces an empty HP 981A cyan unit in the same printer. The jump is worth it when the current cartridge reaches end of life and print quality fades or the device prompts for replacement. It restores the original page yield and colour accuracy for the 556 and 586 series.

PageWide dye-based ink limits

Dye-based ink can be sensitive to moisture and extreme temperatures; operating humidity should stay between 10 and 90% RH and temperature between 41 and 95°F. Storage outside the -40 to 140°F range may degrade performance. The cartridge is engineered only for the listed PageWide Enterprise models.
