Built for schools, churches, marketing teams and small businesses running HP OfficeJet 6000, 6500A and 7500A printers, the HP 920XL Yellow Ink Cartridge keeps colour work on schedule. Yellow is part of almost every colour you print, from green in bar charts to skin tones in photos and orange in logos. When it runs dry, school newsletters, fundraising posters and sales brochures print with odd blue and purple tints. The HP 920XL Yellow Ink Cartridge fixes that without replacing the other three cartridges. Event planners in Nakuru and Kisumu printing programmes and name cards feel this most.

Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that only stock black for older OfficeJet printers, Mascom International carries the HP 920XL Yellow Ink Cartridge and can supply matching cyan, magenta and black on request. Our team at Mascom International sees yellow as a common first colour to run out in offices printing charts and branded material. You can check the seal, HP label and box date before paying. Our community of school administrators and small business owners tells us buying one colour at a time keeps printing affordable. Visit Kimathi Street or order for pay-on-arrival delivery.

It fits the HP OfficeJet 6000, 6500, 6500A, 6500A Plus, 7000 wide-format and 7500A wide-format printers. It goes into the yellow slot, which is usually marked with a yellow label inside the carriage. The same printers accept the standard HP 920 yellow, so either size works. Check the cartridge door sticker for 920 or 920XL. If unsure, send us a WhatsApp photo of your printer's front panel and we will confirm the match within minutes.

HP rates it at about 700 pages using the ISO/IEC 24711 colour test. That test prints mixed documents with charts, text and small images, not full-page photos. Brochures, posters and photo pages with large coloured areas use far more yellow, so expect 200 to 400 of those. A school office printing 25 colour pages a day would replace yellow roughly every five to six weeks. Printing internal drafts in greyscale saves colour ink for work that matters.

Inkjet printers build most colours by mixing cyan, magenta and yellow dots. Greens, oranges, reds, browns and skin tones all rely on yellow in the mix. Without it, greens turn blue and oranges turn pink. These OfficeJet models also need all four cartridges installed before they print at all. So even offices printing mostly black text need a working yellow cartridge in place. Replacing it promptly keeps the printer ready for any job.

At KSh 3,900 for about 700 pages, yellow ink works out to roughly KSh 5.60 per rated page. The XL prints more than twice the pages of the standard 920 yellow, so you replace it less than half as often. That matters for schools and churches printing weekly bulletins and posters. Fewer trips to the shop also mean fewer interrupted print runs. Offices printing only occasional colour pages may prefer the smaller standard cartridge.

No, only replace the colour that is empty or low. These printers use four separate cartridges, so yellow can be swapped without touching cyan, magenta or black. The printer screen and self-test page show which cartridge is running low. Replacing only yellow avoids throwing away ink you have already paid for. If cyan and magenta are also nearly empty, buying them together saves a second delivery or trip into town.

HP prints a date on every ink box, and on OfficeJet cartridges it usually marks the install-by or end-of-warranty point. Sealed ink stored away from heat normally prints well for months after that date. Your printer may show an expiry notice that you can acknowledge before continuing. We go through the box date with you before you pay, so there are no surprises. The Mascom warranty below applies to this unit either way.

Refilled cartridges often carry old chips that misreport ink levels or trigger error messages. Mismatched yellow ink can also shift colours, turning a company logo the wrong shade on letterheads. Poorly filtered ink can clog the printhead, which costs far more than several cartridges. The HP 920XL Yellow Ink Cartridge uses the ink the printer's colour profiles were built around. That keeps branded material consistent from one print run to the next.

Orders within Nairobi and its environs usually arrive the same day, and you pay only after checking the sealed box. Nakuru, Kisumu, Eldoret and other major towns typically receive orders the next business day. CBD customers can walk in and collect within minutes. Schools often order yellow with cyan and magenta together before term starts, so the printer never stops during exam season. Full delivery timelines appear at the end of this page.

Switch the printer on, open the cartridge access door and wait for the carriage to stop moving. Press the empty yellow cartridge down gently, then lift it out of its slot. Remove the new cartridge from its foil pouch, pull off the orange tab, and push it into the yellow slot until it clicks. Close the door and let the printer finish its short setup routine. The swap takes under two minutes and needs no tools or technician visit.

Three ways to order:

The cartridge comes with the 6-month Mascom warranty stated above.
