HP 932XL Black Ink Cartridge is now available at Mascom International for KSh 8,400, brand new and sealed in original HP packaging. The HP 932XL Black Ink Cartridge holds 22.5ml of pigment-based black ink, rated by HP for about 1,000 A4 pages under ISO/IEC 24711 testing. That is roughly 2.6 times the ink inside the standard 932. It fits HP OfficeJet 6100, 6600, 6700, 7110, 7510, 7610, and 7612 printers. Buy the HP 932XL Black Ink Cartridge at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Designed for high-volume offices, the HP 932XL Black Ink Cartridge suits accounting firms, school bursaries, SACCO branches, and law chambers around Upper Hill and Milimani. These teams print KRA returns, fee statements, loan schedules, and pleadings every day. Swapping a small cartridge every three weeks interrupts that work, often on a deadline afternoon. One HP 932XL Black Ink Cartridge covers about 1,000 pages, so a desk printing 50 pages daily changes ink roughly once a month. Pigment black keeps text dark and sharp enough for scanning into case management and audit systems.
Unlike traditional electronics retailers in Kenya that quote XL prices without explaining the maths, Mascom International shows you the real numbers. At KSh 8,400, the HP 932XL Black Ink Cartridge costs about KSh 373 per millilitre, against roughly KSh 388 for the standard 932. The per-page cost is near KSh 8.40, almost level with the smaller cartridge. You pay for convenience and fewer interruptions, not a big per-page discount. Buyers throughout Kenya tell us that trade-off suits busy offices. Order by WhatsApp and pay on arrival anywhere in the country, with same-day delivery across Nairobi and next-day delivery to other major towns.
Common Questions About the HP 932XL Black Ink Cartridge
Which printers accept the HP 932XL Black Ink Cartridge?
The HP 932XL Black Ink Cartridge fits the HP OfficeJet 6100 ePrinter, 6600 e-All-in-One, 6700 e-All-in-One, 7110 Wide Format ePrinter, 7510 Wide Format All-in-One, 7610 Wide Format e-All-in-One, and 7612. It uses the same slot as the standard HP 932, so you can switch between sizes freely. Printers built for HP 950, 953, 963, or 305 cartridges will not accept it. Send a photo of your printer label on WhatsApp and our team confirms the fit before you order.
How long does one XL cartridge last in a busy office?
HP rates the HP 932XL Black Ink Cartridge at about 1,000 A4 pages at standard office coverage. An accounts desk printing 50 pages a day, five days a week, gets roughly four weeks from one cartridge. A school bursary printing 2,000 fee statements at term opening would need about two cartridges for that run. Heavy tables, bold headers, and scanned stamps consume more ink, so plan for 700 to 900 pages on dense financial reports.
Does the XL cartridge actually save money over the standard 932?
Only slightly, and we prefer to be clear about that. At KSh 8,400 for 22.5ml, the HP 932XL costs about KSh 373 per millilitre. The standard 932 costs about KSh 388 per millilitre. Measured per rated page, both land near KSh 8.25 to KSh 8.40. The real gain is time: one XL replaces two and a half standard cartridges, meaning fewer swaps, fewer mid-job stoppages, and fewer emergency trips to buy ink before a deadline.
Who should choose the XL over the standard size?
Choose the HP 932XL Black Ink Cartridge if your office prints more than 600 pages a month. Accountants handling KRA deadlines, lawyers filing bundles at Milimani Law Courts, and SACCO staff printing member statements all fit that profile. Offices printing under 400 pages monthly should stay with the standard 932, since ink sitting unused for months gains nothing. The XL also suits branches upcountry, where running out means waiting a day for delivery.
Is the HP 932XL here original HP stock?
Yes. Every HP 932XL Black Ink Cartridge at Mascom International is original HP stock, part number CN053AE, sealed in its HP carton. We do not sell refilled, remanufactured, or third-party cartridges under the 932XL name. Original HP chips communicate correctly with HP printer firmware, so the ink gauge reads accurately and updates do not block the cartridge. You can inspect the seal, security label, and part number at our Kimathi Street counter before paying.
Can I use the XL black with standard 933 colour cartridges?
Yes, sizes mix freely. The printer reads each cartridge separately, so an HP 932XL Black Ink Cartridge works alongside standard HP 933 or high-yield HP 933XL colour cartridges. Many offices run XL black with standard colour because they print mostly text and only occasional coloured charts. All four slots must stay filled, though. HP OfficeJet 6000 and 7000 series printers stop printing when any single cartridge is missing or fully depleted.
Will the XL cartridge dry out if my office prints slowly?
It can if left unused for many months, which is why sizing matters. Pigment ink is thicker than dye ink and needs regular movement through the printhead. Offices printing fewer than 100 pages a week should consider the standard 932. Once installed, print at least a few pages weekly, even during December closures. Keep unopened spares sealed and shaded. HP rates sealed storage between -40 and 60 degrees Celsius, well within Kenyan warehouse conditions.
How does delivery work for ink cartridges outside Nairobi?
Mascom International delivers the HP 932XL Black Ink Cartridge to all 47 counties with pay-on-arrival terms. Nairobi and its environs receive it the same day. Nakuru, Eldoret, Kisumu, Mombasa, Meru, Nyeri, and every other major town receive it within one business day. You open the delivery, check the sealed HP carton and part number, then pay the rider. That gives county offices and upcountry schools the same protection as walk-in buyers.
What should I do if the printer shows a cartridge error?
First, remove the HP 932XL Black Ink Cartridge and check that all protective tape is off the contacts. Reseat it firmly until it clicks, close the door, and wait for the printer to finish initialising. If the error remains, switch the printer off with its power button for 60 seconds. Still stuck? Bring the cartridge and receipt to our Nairobi CBD service desk, or send a WhatsApp video, and our team walks you through the fix.
Technical Specifications
Ink Formula and Print Output
- Pigment-based black ink sits on the paper surface, giving dense text that scans cleanly into accounting software.
- HP lists a 12 picolitre drop size, keeping small print on bank statements and fee schedules readable.
- Text dries quickly on plain 80gsm paper, so long print runs stack without smudging each other.
- Pigment output resists water splashes and highlighter pens better than dye ink on working legal documents.
- HP Thermal Inkjet technology fires ink through the printer's printhead for even line density across pages.
- Dark, consistent black helps certified copies and stamped documents photocopy well at registry offices.
Page Yield and Running Cost
- About 1,000 A4 pages per cartridge, rated by HP under the ISO/IEC 24711 office document standard.
- The 22.5ml fill equals roughly 2.6 times the 8.5ml inside the standard HP 932 cartridge.
- At KSh 8,400, cost per millilitre is about KSh 373 against roughly KSh 388 for the standard size.
- Per rated page, black ink costs near KSh 8.40, almost level with the standard cartridge's KSh 8.25.
- An office printing 1,000 pages monthly swaps ink once instead of two or three times with standard cartridges.
- Dense reports and bold letterheads use more ink, so budget 700 to 900 pages for heavy financial documents.
Printer Compatibility
- Fits the HP OfficeJet 6100 ePrinter, a single-function model common in reception and front-office desks.
- Works in the HP OfficeJet 6600 and 6700 e-All-in-One printers used by clinics and small firms.
- Compatible with the HP OfficeJet 7110 Wide Format ePrinter, which prints A3 site plans and posters.
- Also fits the OfficeJet 7510, 7610, and 7612 wide-format models found in architecture and survey offices.
- Uses the same slot as the standard HP 932, so either size can go in at the next change.
- Will not fit printers designed for HP 950, HP 953, HP 963, or HP 305 cartridges.
Physical Build and Chip
- HP part number CN053AE marks the Europe, Middle East, and Africa version sold for the Kenyan market.
- The cartridge measures about 114 by 126 by 36 mm, visibly taller than the standard 932.
- It weighs about 90 grams, with the extra mass coming from the larger ink reservoir inside.
- An HP chip reports ink levels, so the printer's control panel shows remaining ink accurately.
- Original HP chips pass HP firmware checks, avoiding blocked-cartridge messages after automatic printer updates.
- The cartridge holds ink only, because the printhead stays fitted inside the printer between changes.
Operating and Storage Conditions
- HP rates operation from 5 to 35 degrees Celsius, covering normal office conditions in Nairobi and Nakuru.
- Operating humidity from 10 to 90 percent suits damp coastal offices in Mombasa and Malindi.
- Sealed storage tolerates -40 to 60 degrees Celsius, so warehouse transit across Kenya carries little risk.
- Keep spares indoors and out of direct sun, especially in Kisumu and Garissa where afternoons run hot.
- Install within a day of removing the seal so the ink outlet does not dry or crust.
- Store boxed spares upright in a drawer or cabinet rather than on a sunny window ledge.
Installation and Printer Care
- Open the access door, wait for the carriage to park, then press the cartridge in until it clicks.
- The printer reads the new chip automatically and refreshes the ink gauge within a few seconds.
- Keep all four cartridges installed, since HP OfficeJet 6000 and 7000 series printers stop when one empties.
- Run the printhead cleaning cycle only when streaks appear, because each cycle uses a measurable amount of ink.
- Turn the printer off with its own button so the printhead parks and seals before power cuts.
- Print a few pages weekly through quiet periods to keep pigment ink moving through the printhead.
