Genuine or compatible?
Genuine, Original HP, sealed box. Not a refill and not our Royal house brand, which we always sell as Royal. Worth knowing when comparing prices: HP sells this cartridge as 205A in this region and as 204A in North America. They are the same cartridge in different regional packaging, and 205A is the one supplied through the proper channel here. At 1,100 pages it is a small cartridge, so cost per page matters more than the shelf price.
Why buy from Trinatech
- Stocked in the Nairobi CBD for immediate collection.
- Courier delivery countrywide, Nakuru, Eldoret, Kisumu and Mombasa included.

- WhatsApp the model number from the front of the printer, or walk in to The One Mall on River Road.
Getting the most from this cartridge
- Rock it gently before fitting and remove the sealing strip completely before the cartridge goes in.
- At 1,100 pages this empties quickly in an office that prints daily. Keeping one spare black on the shelf avoids a stopped machine at month end.
- Keep the colours and the black balanced. On this range the printer will usually halt when any one cartridge is empty, even for a black-only job.
- Store spares boxed and away from heat. These are small cartridges and they suffer more than larger ones from a hot store room.
Frequently asked questions
- Is there a higher-yield version? Yes, HP 205X black fits the same printers and holds more toner.
- Do I need the colours too? Yes for colour printing. HP 205A cyan, magenta and yellow are sold separately at around 900 pages each.
- How fast is delivery? Same day within Nairobi, next working day to most towns.
- Can I return it? Yes, provided it is sealed and unused.
- Is HP 204A the same cartridge? Effectively yes. Same cartridge, different regional part number; 205A is the number for this market.
