Highlights
Quality
I've ordered this product in the past through another vendor, so it's not like this is a brand new product that i'm using.
Packaging/appearance
Delivered when promised, original undamaged packaging, fit and performs perfectly in my long dis-continued hp 4050.
Competitiveness
These oem units cost about 3x the generic ones, but i was time critical and couldn't afford to try the different generic brands.
