When you receive this HP cartidge, you will find it very easy to install on a B9180 printer. They just snap right in. I never have any problems with clogs or color. Matte Black does have a slightly different texture than other inks, so you can see where the matte black lies on photos. My only negative comment is that the ink does not last anywhere near what HP claims. Typically I can get about 30-35 5x7s before needing to replace an ink cartridge. Since there's 8 cartriges I figure each 5x7 costs around $5 or more. I can no longer afford this so I will either stop printing, buy another printer, or get 3rd party ink even if it means some quality issues.

HP 38 Cyan Pigment Ink Cartridge (C9415A) Purchased this ink for My B9180 Photosmart Pro Printer. It works beautifully, and installation is a snap. However, the price you pay for HP Ink is very high. I have recently switched to Kodak, and the cost is considerably less.

I hate these 38 ink cartridges. I do not get even close to the amount of printed pages each toner should put out. They are way overpriced. I'm printing on Fast Draft (lowest quality). I only buy them because they are the only ones I can use in my printer. They are not refillable and HP says that even if they were I would not be able to use them in my printer because it would void out my warranty. Definitely not a good bargain. I hate to think what my expense would be if I printed photo quality. Oh yeah, I got some flyers wet and the ink does bleed. It is not waterproof like they advertise.
