HP CB304AN 110 Tri-Color Ink Cartridge - Original Ink

The HP 110 Tri-Color Ink Cartridge (CB304AN) is an OEM replacement cartridge for HP's Photosmart A-series compact photo printers. It uses HP Vivera dye-based inks — a formulation specifically engineered for photographic output rather than document printing. The tri-color design combines cyan, magenta, and yellow inks in a single cartridge body, which suits the compact A-series hardware but does mean you replace all three colors simultaneously regardless of individual channel depletion. HP rates output at approximately 55 photos at standard 4x6 settings, and the ink is certified fade-resistant, water-resistant, and smudge-resistant when used with HP Advanced Photo Paper — a performance threshold that generic refills rarely match consistently.

This cartridge is the right choice for HP Photosmart A-series owners who print occasional photos and want color accuracy and longevity without calibration hassle. It is specifically not a high-volume solution — the ~55 photo yield makes per-print cost high compared to dedicated ink tank printers. Its value is in print quality consistency and the documented fade-resistance backed by HP's Vivera ink testing, which matters for users printing photos intended for display or long-term storage. If you own one of the 18 compatible Photosmart models and print photos selectively, this OEM cartridge is the lowest-risk option for maintaining the color quality those printers were designed to produce.
