what are the expiration dates on these cartridges?

Tracy, The 98 cartridges do not have expiration dates. Some of the HP cartridges do and are listed on the HP web site. I have been using these cartridges for years and have never had a problem and I note the manufacturing date on my last order was 2012. I called HP on this some time ago and they said when they reach a certain age they are removed from the shelves and inventory. Hope this helps. Tom

The date on the package is the warranty expiration date. It DOES NOT mean that the cartridge is no good after the date.

The expiration date on the cartridge that I purchased is December, 2015. But I can't speak to whether or not this is the expiration date that will be found on every cartridge that is sold by this vendor. I can only attest to the expiration date on the cartridge that I personally received.

The date on the cartridge I received was 2009, I believe. But the cartridges I received were not new, rather refilled. The seller was very easy to work with when I returned them though. Quick and courteous.

I don't have a real specific answer, except--there are expiration dates on them. And I've used them after the date and the prints have been fine. I've also had cartridges in my printer for a year and a half--and while they've needed more head cleaning--the prints have been great. Obviously, the best thing is to buy as you need them.

I'd like to buy the same. Waiting for the seller answer. Are these expired HP ink cartridges??

My printer reads them as expired, but they are still usable. I am still using them.

I don't remember seeing such date. It was shipped to me on 6-22-13; With or without the expiration date, the cartridge should've yielded many more pages of printing.

These cartridges(amongst most ink cartridges) will have a shelf life of 2 years. We hope this was helpful. Please let us know if there is anything else that we can do for you. - Northland Wholesale

That's a reasonable question for the selling vendor, but Amazon forwarded it to other customers to answer! Since I bought mine months ago, I doubt that the expiration date on my box will help you. In my experience, the shelf life of these is near infinite BEFORE THE SEAL IS TAKEN OFF; they dry out or get gunked up if they sit in the printer too long after having been opened - that happened to me once on a color cartridge when I was printing mostly black.

Sorry, I didn't even check that. They worked fine. The printer has since died so I won't be able to know how long the ink lasts either.

the expiration date is on the little cardboard box that you don't get with these, so it's a total guess. In there lies the "problem". Is this very old ink? Will it be more likely to clog the printhead?

Sorry I don't have the expiration date, it was probably on the shipping box that I returned with the old cartridge. I did buy this printer on information from an official Hewlett Packard serviceman's recommendation that he has been using the replacement for almost 2 years and that he prints documents in excess of 2000 and his was still printing perfect. I am hoping for half that. Jocelyn

Wish I could help; I used the Cartridges right after I received them and did not notice the Expiration Date, except that the ink was fresh.

I don't know - we had no trouble with the cartridges, and we go through them so fast I don't even think we still have those to check. Sorry.

There's not any expiration date. The cartridges are sealed until they are installed in the printer and they last until they are depleted.

Since these are brand new, that question cannot be answered -- all depends on the lot that they take it from. New cartridges generally run 1-2 years prior to expiration. Mine (from Amazon) was 2 years out - 2017.
