HP 680 technical specifications and page yield
The HP 680 is an Ink Advantage cartridge built for HP’s entry-level home and small-office inkjets. Knowing the published yields helps you compare the true running cost rather than just the shelf price.
- Black yield: up to 480 pages (ISO/IEC 24711) for the F6V27AA black cartridge.
- Tri-colour yield: up to 150 pages (ISO/IEC 24711) for the F6V26AA tri-colour cartridge.
- Ink type: dye-based ink in both black and tri-colour units.
- Tri-colour ink volume: 4 ml delivered, with an ink drop size of roughly 3.25 pl to 6.8 pl.
- Print technology: HP Thermal Inkjet.
Yields are measured to the ISO/IEC 24711 standard, which uses a fixed test document and around 5% page coverage. According to HP’s supplies guidance, page yields are published “based on the industry standard for measuring ink cartridge yields (ISO/IEC 24711)” so that buyers can compare cartridges on a like-for-like basis. Your real-world mileage depends on how much ink each page actually uses. See HP’s page-yield explainer for the full methodology.
Working out cost per page
Cost per page is simply cartridge price divided by rated yield. At Officestationery.lk pricing, the HP 680 Black works out to roughly Rs 3,100 ÷ 480 pages ≈ Rs 6.5 per black page, while the Tri-colour comes to about Rs 6,100 ÷ 150 pages ≈ Rs 40.7 per colour page. That gap is normal for dye-based home cartridges and explains why text-heavy users get far more value from the black unit.
Which printers use the HP 680 cartridge?
The HP 680 Black and Tri-colour cartridges are designed for a wide range of HP DeskJet Ink Advantage and similar models, including the HP 2135, 2138, 5085, 5075, 3635, 3636, 3835, 2675, 2676, 4535, 4675, 3775, 3776 and 3777 printers. Always match the cartridge to your exact printer model; using the wrong region or part number can trigger a “cartridge not recognised” error.
Genuine vs compatible HP 680 cartridges
You will see both genuine HP 680 cartridges and cheaper third-party “compatible” versions on the market. Genuine cartridges carry HP’s published yields, fraud protection and low-ink alerts. Compatible or refilled cartridges can lower upfront cost but may vary in yield and print consistency, and refilling can affect print quality and cartridge life. For a printer you rely on, the genuine cartridge usually delivers more predictable cost-per-page.
The wider ink cartridge market
Demand for consumables like the HP 680 sits inside a large, steadily growing global market. Industry analysts at Global Market Insights value the ink cartridge printer market at USD 20.6 billion in 2025, with continued expansion forecast into the next decade.
“The global ink cartridge printer market was estimated at USD 20.6 billion in 2025. The market is expected to grow from USD 21.3 billion in 2026 to USD 33.8 billion in 2035, at a CAGR of 5.2%.”

For Sri Lankan buyers, that steady demand means standard-capacity cartridges like the HP 680 stay widely supported and easy to source locally.
Tips for buying HP 680 cartridges cost-effectively

- Print in draft/grayscale for everyday documents to stretch the tri-colour yield.
- Stock the black cartridge first; at roughly Rs 6.5 per page it carries most text printing.
