I was just speaking with an HP sales rep @ OfficeMax this afternoon. I don't know about the cables, but he finally admitted to me that the 4 ink cartridges that come with the printer (black, red, yellow, blue) are indeed full size cartridges (the plastic part) but HP doesn't FILL them up for inclusion with new printers. You can consider the ink a "starter pak". He couldn't/wouldn't tell me if they were 1/2 full, or 1/3 full, or less...but that they were "enough to get started". I've decided NOT to purchase a new HP printer. When I have finally gotten tired of purchasing cartridge after cartridge after cartridge, and never getting the advertised yield of pages from any of them, I will search for a new printer from someone else. HP doesn't work for my loyalty as they once did.

Many printers today come with both a color and black ink cartridge. A printer will only print black ink if there is the only cartridge is the black ink cartridge, the color cartridge has run out of ink, or you select the print option to print either in black and white or grayscale.

yes initial cartridges to get you started were in the box with my printer. It did not have one of the cables, but it is a cable that you should have with most printer products. I don't remember which one but it was not costly and pretty standard.

Yes, it includes all cartridges needed to operate. They are not the largest size available.

Mine had CDs for drivers and additional software. Up-to-date drivers can be found online. Power cable included but not Ethernet nor USB, as I recall. Manuals were included too, though you can find those online too. BTW, this printer has worked very well for several years of light home office use.

Yes. USB and mini olor and Black cartridges come with it. You will need to buy a set of the regular size color, Black and Black photo cartridges, since the "starter kit" doesn't last long.

It included one cartridge of each color. I print fairly often, the cartridges lasted over 6 months. I purchased third party cartridges for replacements and have not had a problem. I bought the printer last summer, and 10 months later, I am only on the second cartridge of each color. Note - The printer will not print at all if any one cartridge is empty.

Ink cartridges came with the printer, but the Black cartridge ran out pretty quickly. Buy the XL ink tanks if you plan to do lots of straight printing.

It comes with ink.....but one of the units I have purchased used a black cartridge in one week!....not sure if the cartridge was bad but something to keep in mind

Yes, all 4 cartridges are included. However my understanding is they are not the large cartridges and if you print a lot you will need refills soon.

When you buy it, it does come with both black and color ink. But it's said that the ink that comes with printers is not as long lasting as the ink you buy in the stores...so it won't be long before you are buying some

It comes with a starter cartridge, which is supposed to last half the time of the real cartridge or about 500 text pages at 5% black coverage. The box contains the printer, the power cable, and a CD with Windows and Linux drivers and a manual. It does NOT contain an USB printer cable.

no it is not but if you can get along with black and white is is one heck of a printer for the $$$ and very easy to set up and run. cartridge lasts and lasts!

We purchased a new unit. I believe it does come with all four starter ink cartridges. We've had the unit in our office for about a year and have gone through a few of the color cartridges and the black.

No, you will have 3 color cartridges and 1 black cartridge, so a total of 4 cartridges per printer.
