Be sure you get an "X" and not an "A"

(1 out of 5) by Alan Barber on Oct 4, 2005 (Sandpoint, ID)
I, too, received the lower capacity 49A instead of the promised 49X. Four times! Three by Amazon and once by Target. No amount of explanation by me could persuade them to check that large "49A" on the package (see my image, above) before boxing it and mailing it to me. On the fifth attempt, by phone, Amazon simply refused to try again. Yet, as of today, the product is still offered for sale at the attractive $71.99 price.

Shipped product different from order

(3 out of 5) by Dave-small biz on Sep 26, 2005
Ordered the HP Q5949X (high capacity) toner cartridge and received the HP Q5949A (standard capacity) toner cartridge. Based on the price paid I'm assuming they listed the item part number incorrectly on the web. Fair price for the Q5949A, but would have been a great price for the Q5949X. Received the shipment in a timely manner.

Amazon screwed up here, might be fixed now

(3 out of 5) by ARealAVFan on Oct 9, 2005 (Acworth, GA)
I ordered the 5949X, Amazon sent the 5949A. I sent it back, they sent another 5949A. The third time, the rep told me Amazon's SKU is probably messed up on this item. Take your chances ordering this here, but I would recommend ordering somewhere else for this, because Amazon has had difficulty managing the inventory info properly on this item.

3rd Grade Math

(5 out of 5) by Wilcy Moore on May 22, 2006
DISenchanted needs to check their elementary school math. 33 cents per page?? And this person is making purchasing decisions? OMG!

Based on today's prices:
Q5949A: $64.78/2500 pages = 2.6 cents per page

Q5949X: $104.15/6000 pages = 1.7 cents per page

Amazon messed up

(1 out of 5) by N. Ali on Oct 21, 2005
They listed the 49X and they shipped the 49A(standard capacity), so like everyone else who bought this product, it is really the standard capacity toner that you are going to get. You may get it at a lower cost elsewhere check around.....
