My HP850C colour inkjet is coming to the end of its long life. As it can be refilled with bulk ink, the print cost is less than half a penny per page. I print about 1000 pages per month - predominantly black text. I refill the 42ml black cartridge about once a month, the 39ml colour cartridge...

Where do you buy your ink ?

Many of the customers at my open-air farm market are local people that we've known for years, and they often inquire about our activities in the off-season. I've created a small display of vacation photos, and placed them on a counter where those who wish to view them, can. Even with customers...

THE TRUTH THERE ARE NO BRANDS OF PREFILLED CARTS. NOBODY HAS CUT AND PASTED FROM ANY VENDORS WEBSITE CLEARLY MARKED INFORMATION OF A BRAND AND ITS PRICE. NOBODY. IF YOU THINK THERE IS A BRAND IT IS NOW YOUR CHOICE. NOBODY HAS MET THE CHALLENGE. JUST GO TO ANY WEBSITE YOU BELIEVE SELLS BRANDED...

As you SHOUT down all users of third party inks, stating that they do not know who makes the ink nor what is in them, please be kind enough to answer this question...... WHO makes Epson, HP, Canon or indeed any other oem inks? Please supply evidence of this. Oh! and don't just say Epson, HP, Canon,...

I just refilled my IP4000. Now I don't need to worry about my wallet whenever I print. It went smoothly. I used plastic screw and o-ring to seal it. I had to thread the filling hole and there may be scraps got into the cartridge while threading. Should I worry about it? Will the foam/filter block...

Yeh, I really am going to put the Bank Of England out of business with my new £30 Lexmark. We all do it for a laugh or just because we can and had no probs before, just happened to try it on my new machine and I get a warning about new software to stop forgeries. Thanks Lexmark, but as you didn't...

I'm looking for a monochrome (e.g. black only only) ink jet printer. Connection by parallel port, USB, Firewire, or ethernet (TCP/IP) is OK. A color printer with a single separate black cartridge that can function in monochrome mode with the color cartridge(s) missing would be acceptable. But I...

Thanks Mike

All, I recently purchased a Samsung ML-2151N Network Laser Printer. I've printed close to 1000 pages, nearly all duplexed, and it has performed flawlessly. However it became clear early on that, especially with duplexing enabled, the standard 16MB of RAM was not going to cut it. There were long...

OK, I am going nuts trying to figure out which to get. I have looked at numerous reviews of both the HP 7960 and the new Canon Pixma 4000. I can get the HP at Costco for the bargain price of $150.00. I had a Canon i850 which I love but killed the print head. I am replacing the head for $50 to give...

Been following some of the interesting comments in recent threads about Canon inks and after reading all that, I have a couple of questions: I recently purchased the Canon i9900 printer along with a full set of spare cartridges. At approximately $12 (USD) per cartridge this is not totally outrages...

Hi, guys. Can someone tell me or help me change the settings on my Sony Vaio laptop so that when I edit pictures they print the same as what I see? I am using Adobe Photoshop Elements 3 with a Sony Cybershot camera. Currently, I am using a Canon S820 printer but will be changing that to a Canon IP...

I have replaced my Epson 880 with an Epson C86. The installation went easily and the new printer works fine. The problem is that many of my (thousands of ) files are still set to use my old printer. This means that every time I open a document, I have to reset to the new printer. If I fail to do...

I have a brand new Canon iP3000 that I want to use for non-critical printing, including test prints for clients (who will have acceptable images professioinally printed). I've used a really good HP for that purpose, but am tiring of paying the consumable prices and may use it only for my own high...

I want to buy a combination scanner/inkjet printer that uses refillable cartridges? I believe HP inkjet cartridges have chips on them that prevent refilling, ie after being refilled the printer still senses the cartridge is empty. Thanks, Mike

Have a Canon S820 that is about a year old (will probably be 1 day past the warrenty when I check). Very little printing on it (about once, every few weeks). I have now replaced the ink tanks for a second time. The photo inks ran dry a while back, and the black just did so too. Now, upon replacing...
