How to read an HP 218 code
A code such as W2181X consists of W218 (the 218 series), the fifth character for the color
(0 = black, 1 = cyan, 2 = yellow, 3 = magenta) and the letter for the capacity
(A = standard yield, X = high yield). W2181X is therefore 218X cyan. The box usually shows both "218X"
and the W-code. Retailers add their own item numbers (Staples item, Best Buy SKU, Walmart item) — the W218… code is the one to match.
