HP 933 Yellow Ink Cartridge is now available at Mascom International for KSh 3,250, brand new and sealed in original HP packaging. The HP 933 Yellow Ink Cartridge holds 3.5ml of pigment-based yellow ink, rated by HP for about 330 A4 pages under ISO/IEC 24711 testing. It fits HP OfficeJet 6100, 6600, 6700, 7110, 7510, 7610, and 7612 printers. Buy the HP 933 Yellow Ink Cartridge at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, or order it for pay-on-arrival delivery anywhere in Kenya.
Made for home users, students, and small shops that print colour only now and then, the HP 933 Yellow Ink Cartridge keeps the printer working without a large upfront spend. Yellow is the lightest ink, yet the printer needs it for greens, oranges, reds, and skin tones. When yellow runs dry, most HP OfficeJet printers stop printing altogether, even black documents. A parent in Rongai printing homework sheets, or a boutique in Ngara printing price tags, needs the printer back quickly. At KSh 3,250, the HP 933 Yellow Ink Cartridge solves that problem at the lowest cost.
We will be direct about value. At KSh 3,250 for about 330 pages, yellow costs close to KSh 9.85 per rated page. The high-yield HP 933XL Yellow at KSh 5,050 brings that down to about KSh 6.12. If you print colour weekly, the XL saves more over time. If you print colour a few times a month, the HP 933 Yellow Ink Cartridge keeps less money tied up in ink. Unlike traditional electronics retailers in Kenya, Mascom International explains both options before you pay. Nairobi orders arrive the same day, and major towns receive theirs the next business day.
Common Questions About the HP 933 Yellow Ink Cartridge
Is the HP 933 Yellow Ink Cartridge right for my printer?
The HP 933 Yellow 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 yellow slot, shared with the larger HP 933XL yellow. Printers built for HP 951, HP 953, HP 963, or HP 305 cartridges will not take it. Send a clear photo of your printer's model label on WhatsApp and our team checks the match before you order.
Why will my printer not print black when only yellow is empty?
HP OfficeJet 6000 and 7000 series printers require all four cartridges to be installed and working before any page prints. The printhead sits permanently inside the printer, and an empty slot can let it dry or take in air. So an empty yellow blocks black-only jobs too. Replacing the HP 933 Yellow Ink Cartridge is the quickest, cheapest way to get the printer back online when colour barely matters to your work.
Should I buy the standard yellow or the 933XL yellow?
It depends on how often you print colour. The HP 933 Yellow Ink Cartridge costs KSh 3,250 for about 330 pages, roughly KSh 9.85 per page. The HP 933XL yellow costs KSh 5,050 for about 825 pages, roughly KSh 6.12 per page. If you print colour every week, the XL saves about 38 percent. If colour appears only on occasional school projects or price tags, the standard size costs KSh 1,800 less today.
How long does a standard yellow last at home?
For a household printing mostly black homework and forms, one HP 933 Yellow Ink Cartridge can last several months. HP rates it at about 330 pages of mixed colour business content. Homes rarely print that much colour, so the practical life depends on photo use. Printing photos or full-colour posters drains yellow faster. Keep printing a colour page every week or two, because unused ink can dry in the printhead nozzles over long quiet spells.
Does yellow run out faster than the other colours?
Sometimes. Yellow appears in greens, oranges, reds, browns, and skin tones, so photo printing and nature scenes draw on it heavily. Business charts with blue themes use less. The 3.5ml fill in the HP 933 Yellow Ink Cartridge is smaller than the 8.5ml in XL colour cartridges, so a mixed set rarely empties together. Check the ink levels page on your printer before any big colour job so yellow does not stop you mid-run.
Why buy original yellow rather than a cheaper refill?
Original ink protects the printhead, which is the most expensive replaceable part in HP OfficeJet 6000 and 7000 series printers. Refilled cartridges can carry thinner ink or air bubbles that block nozzles or leak onto the carriage. A cartridge that saves KSh 1,500 can end up costing a printhead replacement. The HP 933 Yellow Ink Cartridge, part number CN060AE, comes sealed from HP with a chip the printer recognises without error messages.
Can I check the cartridge before paying?
Yes. At our Kimathi Street counter you can inspect the sealed carton, the HP security label, and the CN060AE part number before paying. For deliveries, pay-on-arrival lets you do the same check at your door. Nairobi and its environs receive the HP 933 Yellow Ink Cartridge the same day, while Nakuru, Eldoret, Kisumu, Mombasa, and other major towns receive it within one business day. You hand over payment only after seeing the sealed HP box.
What is the best way to install a new yellow cartridge?
Switch the printer on, open the cartridge access door, and wait for the carriage to stop moving. Press down on the old yellow cartridge to release it, then remove the new one from its packaging. Push the HP 933 Yellow Ink Cartridge into the yellow slot until it clicks, then close the door. The printer detects it within seconds. If an error appears, reseat the cartridge once before calling our team on WhatsApp.
What happens if the cartridge arrives damaged or fails?
Check the sealed carton when the rider arrives, and refuse any box that looks opened or crushed, since you have not paid yet. If the HP 933 Yellow Ink Cartridge leaks or your printer rejects it on first installation, bring it with the receipt to our Nairobi CBD service desk. Our team tests it on a matching OfficeJet and replaces a faulty unit under the warranty below. Upcountry buyers can start the claim by sending a WhatsApp photo or video.

- Not compatible with printers built for HP 951, HP 953, HP 963, or HP 305 cartridges.
Physical Build and Chip
- HP part number CN060AE identifies the Europe, Middle East, and Africa version supplied in Kenya.
- HP lists outer dimensions of about 115 by 24 by 100 mm for the standard yellow cartridge.
- The empty cartridge weighs about 20 grams, according to HP's published specifications for this part.
- An HP chip reports yellow levels, keeping the printer's on-screen ink gauge accurate over time.
- Original HP chips pass firmware checks, avoiding blocked-cartridge messages after automatic printer updates.
- The cartridge holds ink only, since the printhead stays installed inside the printer between changes.
Operating and Storage Conditions
- HP rates operation from 5 to 35 degrees Celsius, suiting home and shop conditions in Nairobi and Kiambu.
- Operating humidity from 10 to 90 percent covers the long rains and humid coastal towns.
- Sealed storage tolerates -40 to 60 degrees Celsius, so county deliveries carry little risk to the ink.
- Keep spares in a shaded drawer, away from windows and parked cars in afternoon heat.
- Install within a day of removing the seal so the ink outlet stays moist.
Installation and Printer Care
- Open the access door and wait for the carriage to stop before touching any cartridge.
- Press the yellow cartridge into its labelled slot until it clicks, then close the door.
- The printer reads the new chip automatically and updates the yellow gauge within seconds.
- All four cartridges must stay installed, because HP OfficeJet 6000 and 7000 series printers stop otherwise.
- Print a colour page every week or two so yellow nozzles stay clear through quiet periods.
- Switch off with the printer's own power button so the printhead parks and seals properly.

Each box contains:
- One original HP 933 Yellow Ink Cartridge, part number CN060AE
