Description
Part 1XB11A fills the Photo Black position at a liter. This machine runs two blacks, and this is not the one for uncoated stock.
Which printers take this part
This cartridge fits the HP DesignJet Z9⁺ family — the 24-in and 44-in models, the Z9⁺dr and the Z9⁺ Pro — which is the platform under PSE’s Education Print Center Pro 64. Those four models are the whole compatibility list for this part, and the 776 parts for them are listed together on the Z9⁺ ink page.
What Photo Black does here
Photo Black is the black for coated and glossy media, holding more shadow detail and a wider tonal range there than Matte Black manages. Which of the two blacks a job draws on follows the media it is printed on. That has an ordering consequence: a change of paper shows up weeks later as a change in which black drains first.
Don’t order this by mistake
Two numbers cause trouble. 1XB12A, the next number up, is Matte Black — a different ink for a different surface, and the one for uncoated and matte stock. And P2V82A is the photo black position for this same platform in a 300 ml HP 746 tank, so a number carried over from an older order can arrive as 300 ml when a liter was budgeted.

Questions schools ask about this cartridge
What is the difference between Photo Black and Matte Black?
Photo black suits coated and glossy stock and holds finer shadow detail there; matte black goes deeper on uncoated paper. Which one a job uses follows the media you print on.
Which of the two blacks runs out faster?
Whichever matches the paper you use most. There is no fixed ratio and it moves when your media does, so read the front panel levels rather than last year’s pattern.
Is a liter the only size for this color?
No. P2V82A is the 300 ml HP 746 photo black for the same platform.
