HP 933XL Cyan Ink Cartridge is now in stock at Mascom International for KSh 5,050, brand new and sealed in original HP packaging. The HP 933XL Cyan Ink Cartridge carries 8.5ml of pigment-based cyan ink, rated by HP for about 825 A4 pages under ISO/IEC 24711 testing. It fits HP OfficeJet 6100, 6600, 6700, 7110, 7510, 7610, and 7612 printers. Pick up the HP 933XL Cyan Ink Cartridge at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, or order it for countrywide pay-on-arrival delivery.
Built for schools, churches, NGOs, and small marketing teams across Kenya, the HP 933XL Cyan Ink Cartridge supplies the blue channel behind every coloured page. Cyan prints blues directly and mixes with yellow for greens and with magenta for purples. When it runs dry, school timetables lose their colour coding and county maps turn muddy. Headteachers in Nyeri, programme officers in Kisumu, and church secretaries in Nakuru print this kind of material weekly, often in batches of 200 or more. With about 825 pages per cartridge, the HP 933XL Cyan Ink Cartridge lasts roughly two and a half times longer than a standard 933.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops push compatible colour cartridges with unpredictable tones, Mascom International sells the original HP 933XL Cyan Ink Cartridge only. At KSh 5,050 for about 825 pages, cyan costs close to KSh 6.12 per rated page. The standard HP 933 yellow sells here at KSh 3,250 for 330 pages, near KSh 9.85 per page, so high-yield colour saves roughly 38 percent per page. Customers across Nairobi report steadier colour after returning to original HP ink. Walk in to confirm your printer model, or order through WhatsApp today for same-day Nairobi delivery.
Common Questions About the HP 933XL Cyan Ink Cartridge
Which printers take the HP 933XL Cyan Ink Cartridge?
The HP 933XL Cyan 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 shares the cyan slot with the standard HP 933 cyan cartridge. Printers that use HP 951, HP 953, HP 963, or HP 305 cartridges will not accept it. Our team can confirm compatibility from a photo of your printer label sent by WhatsApp.
What does the cyan cartridge actually print?
Cyan is the blue base of every colour page from your OfficeJet. On its own it prints light and mid blues, such as table headers, hyperlinks, and sky areas in photos. Mixed with yellow it forms greens, and with magenta it forms purples and deep blues. So an empty HP 933XL Cyan Ink Cartridge affects far more than blue text. Charts, maps, and school certificates lose accuracy the moment this channel runs low.
How is the 825-page figure measured?
HP rates the HP 933XL Cyan Ink Cartridge at about 825 pages using ISO/IEC 24711, the standard method for inkjet yield testing. The test prints a set of mixed business pages with text, charts, and small images. Your real count depends on how much blue sits on each page. Colourful posters or full-page photos use far more cyan, while documents with only a coloured logo use only a small amount. Treat 825 pages as a fair average, not a promise.
Why pay KSh 5,050 instead of buying a standard 933 cyan?
Because high-yield colour costs less per page. At KSh 5,050 for about 825 pages, the HP 933XL Cyan Ink Cartridge works out to roughly KSh 6.12 per rated page. The standard HP 933 range at Mascom International sits near KSh 9.85 per page, based on the yellow at KSh 3,250 for 330 pages. That gap saves about 38 percent. It also means fewer colour swaps for schools printing hundreds of term reports.
Will a colour cartridge last longer if I print mostly text?
Yes, and that is normal. An OfficeJet printing mainly black letters draws little cyan, so one HP 933XL Cyan Ink Cartridge may last several months. The printer still uses some colour ink during automatic printhead servicing, so the gauge drops slowly even without colour pages. If your office prints colour rarely, keep printing a coloured test page every week or two. That keeps the cyan nozzles clear and avoids streaked blue lines later.
Do I need to replace all colours at the same time?
No. Each colour sits in its own cartridge, so you replace only the HP 933XL Cyan Ink Cartridge when its gauge reads empty. That saves money compared with printers that use one combined tri-colour cartridge. However, the printer needs all four slots filled with working cartridges before it prints anything. Keep an eye on the ink levels page, and order the next cyan when the gauge shows about 10 percent remaining.
Is this cartridge sold as original HP stock?
Yes. Every HP 933XL Cyan Ink Cartridge at Mascom International is original HP stock with part number CN054AE, sealed in its HP retail carton. We do not carry refilled, remanufactured, or cloned 933XL cartridges. Original HP chips work correctly with HP printer firmware, so updates do not trigger "cartridge problem" alerts. You can inspect the carton, HP security label, and part number at our Kimathi Street counter before you pay.
How do I store a spare cyan cartridge at the coast?
Keep the HP 933XL Cyan Ink Cartridge sealed in its carton until installation day. HP rates sealed storage from -40 to 60 degrees Celsius and humidity from 10 to 90 percent, which covers Mombasa, Kilifi, and Lamu conditions. Heat is the bigger risk, so avoid car dashboards and sunny window ledges. A closed office cabinet works well. Once the seal is removed, install the cartridge the same day to keep its outlet from drying.
Can I get the cyan cartridge delivered to my county?
Yes. Mascom International ships the HP 933XL Cyan Ink Cartridge to all 47 counties with pay-on-arrival terms. Nairobi and its environs receive it the same day. Mombasa, Kisumu, Nakuru, Eldoret, Kakamega, Kisii, and every other major town receive it within one business day. You inspect the sealed carton and part number before paying the rider. Schools and churches upcountry order this way before exam and event seasons.
Technical Specifications
Ink Formula and Colour Output
- Pigment-based cyan ink, as listed by HP, holds colour on plain paper without heavy bleed into fibres.
- HP lists a 7 picolitre drop size, fine enough for smooth blue gradients in charts and small photos.
- Cyan mixes with yellow and magenta inside the printer to form greens, purples, and deep navy tones.
- Coloured text and table shading dry quickly, so double-sided school newsletters handle without smearing.
- HP Thermal Inkjet technology fires cyan through the printer's own printhead for consistent tone across pages.
- Original HP colour profiles in the printer driver match this ink, keeping corporate blues close to brand.
Page Yield and Running Cost
- About 825 pages per cartridge, rated by HP under the ISO/IEC 24711 inkjet yield standard.
- At KSh 5,050, cyan works out to roughly KSh 6.12 per rated page of mixed business content.
- Cost per millilitre lands near KSh 594, based on the 8.5ml fill HP lists for this cartridge.
- High-yield colour saves about 38 percent per page against standard 933 pricing at Mascom International.
- Full-page photos and posters use far more cyan, so graphic-heavy offices should budget extra cartridges.
- Offices printing mostly black text may get several months from one cyan cartridge before replacement.
Printer Compatibility
- Fits the HP OfficeJet 6100 ePrinter found on many reception desks and small shop counters.
- Works in the HP OfficeJet 6600 and 6700 e-All-in-One models used by schools and clinics.
- Compatible with the HP OfficeJet 7110 Wide Format ePrinter for A3 maps, posters, and plans.
- Also fits the OfficeJet 7510, 7610, and 7612 wide-format printers used in design and survey offices.
- Shares the cyan slot with the standard HP 933 cyan, so either size fits at the next change.
- Does not fit printers built for HP 951, HP 953, HP 963, or HP 305 cartridges.
Physical Build and Chip
- HP part number CN054AE marks the Europe, Middle East, and Africa version supplied to Kenyan buyers.
- The cartridge measures about 94 by 126 by 24 mm, the same footprint as the black HP 932.
- It weighs roughly 30 grams unpacked and about 50 grams in its sealed retail carton.
- An HP chip reports remaining cyan to the printer, keeping the on-screen ink gauge accurate.
- Original HP chips pass firmware checks, avoiding blocked-cartridge alerts after automatic HP printer updates.
- The cartridge holds ink only, because the printhead stays inside the printer between cartridge changes.
Operating and Storage Conditions
- HP rates operation from 5 to 35 degrees Celsius, matching office conditions in Nairobi, Nyeri, and Eldoret.
- Operating humidity from 10 to 90 percent covers the wet months along Kenya's coastal strip.
- Sealed storage tolerates -40 to 60 degrees Celsius, so transit on long county routes carries little risk.
- Keep spares shaded and indoors, since direct afternoon sun is the main threat to stored ink.
- Install the cartridge within a day of opening so the ink outlet does not dry or crust.
Installation and Colour Care
- Open the access door, let the carriage stop, then press the cyan cartridge into its labelled slot.
- The printer reads the new chip automatically and updates its cyan gauge within a few seconds.
- All four cartridges must stay installed, because HP OfficeJet 6000 and 7000 series printers stop otherwise.
- Print a colour test page every week or two if your office rarely prints colour documents.
- Run printhead cleaning only when blue streaks appear, because each cleaning cycle uses ink from every cartridge.
- Switch off with the printer's power button so the printhead parks and seals before any power cut.
Package Contents
Each box contains:
- One original HP 933XL Cyan Ink Cartridge, part number CN054AE
