Although HP LaserJet 13X (Q2613X) costs about 20% more than LaserJet 13A (Q2613A), it is a superior buy for a number of reasons. Topping the list is lower cost per page. 13X can print 4000 pages at 5% page coverage (ISO/IEC 19752 standard) whereas 13A can print 2500 pages. That's 37.5% difference in page yield. Divide up the toner price against 4000 (e.g., 91.99 / 4000 = 2.3 cents) to get cost per page.

Secondly, laser toners last a long time whether you print few times a month or dozens of pages a day (they don't dry out). And finally, higher page yield means fewer toner replacement.

My only complaint with 13X (and that goes to 13A as well) is that page yield cost with some competing printers and higher-end HP LaserJets is even less.

I print a lot, but this high capacity cartridge seems to last forever. The quality remains good right to the last. The only drawback is that my HP printer software seems to be geared to the lower capacity cartridge and is perpetually reminding me I'm running out of toner, when in fact, the cartridge is still going strong. Well worth the money.

Due to budget cuts I have to buy the toner for my printer at my work- this toner usually costs around $90 but I bought it here for $32 INCLUDING shipping! Great buy, great price, fast shipping. I could not be any more satisfied. GREAT TRANSACTION.

This is the appropriate toner for my printer. What is best about the Q2613X is that it has greater capacity (prints more pages) than the other toner that works for this product. I get extensive use from one of these toners.

Purchasing the maximum capacity toner sizes for HP Printers works out great as long as you can find a reasonable price. So far, I have been able to find great deals here on Amazon. I recently purchased a two pack of this toner for a great price.
