HP Smart Tank 581 All-in-One Compatible Ink Bottles Buying Guide

βœ“
A user producing mostly invoices, notes or school documents will normally consume more black, making GT53XL the practical larger refill. Colour-heavy presentations should be monitored tank by tank because cyan, magenta and yellow rarely fall evenly. The 581's manual two-sided printing feature does not call for a different ink family.

Frequently Asked Questions

What ink family does the HP Smart Tank 581 take?

HP specifies GT53 or GT53XL Black and GT52 Cyan, Magenta and Yellow ink bottles.

Can GT52 Black be used in the HP Smart Tank 581?

No. GT52 is the colour-bottle family. Black ink should be GT53 or GT53XL with the correct regional code.

What should I check before refilling an HP Smart Tank 581?

Confirm the tank colour, the GT reference and the regional product code. Also verify that poor printing is caused by low ink rather than a printhead or maintenance issue.
