Why the full code matters
Product titles vary between shops ("HP 305 black", "305 standard black", "HP305"). The OEM code is unambiguous. HP pages also show
forms such as 3YM61AE#UUS or 3YM61A; they mean the same cartridge.
Besides 6ZD17AE (standard), HP makes an official 305XL 2-pack, 6ZA94AE. In the UK it's sold under that part number by retailers such as Cartridge Save and Amazon.co.uk; HP Store UK's own page for it returned an error when we checked. Other packs with two XL cartridges are put together by retailers or are alternatives.
HP 305 outside Europe
In the US and Canada the same cartridges are called HP 67 (3YM55AN to 3YM58AN), in parts of Asia HP 805. Which number belongs to which region: HP 305, 67 and 805 by region. Bought your printer in the US or Canada? HP 67 on 67ink.com.
