Title: Inkjet Refill Cartridges
Post by: Bob_Roller on February 05, 2008, 12:58:42 PM

I don't know if anybody knows abouy this company or not, but I just had to replace the black and color cartridges for my printer.

I had fliers left on my car about 6 months ago, from Cartridge World.

They're only business is to refill ink cartridges.

Cost is about half of what a retail outlet charges.

Did a quick search on-line, and they seem to have stores in a surprising number of countries around the world.

Keep this in mind if you need to replace any cartridges in the future.

Just remember to bring in your empty cartridges, to exchange them.

I will be anxiously awaiting your review!  

What kind of printer do you use?  Mine is a cheap Lexmark from Mal-Wart.  

I quit printing color at home long ago.  Too expensive and too lousy quality (ink jet).
I normally keep a black cartridge in it.  In fact, I just bought one last Saturday! LOL!
I only paid $21 for a lesser-yield Lexmark-brand cartridge (Now with 10% More!), so I don't feel too bad.  Especially if it tolerates my infrequent use of it.  That is what worries me most, is drying out from dis-use.

Work has left me jonesin for a laser.

I'm starting to worry about you, Bob!

Rob,

I just printed a couple of pages, and the new cartridges work great.

Also there is a warning , as to not run the cartridges completely empty, it can cause damage to the printer.

Also they mention something about a cleaning cycle for the cartridge, if you start to have problems with printing.

Time to check the owners manual on that !

Prices were $13.99US for the black cartridge, and $16.99US for the color cartridge.

The printer I have is a Hewlet-Packard Deskjet 3845, not a top grade model, it came as part of a computer set from Fry's Electronics, back in October, 2004.

I don't know why I keep forgetting to post a link to these sites !!!

I found one of their stores right around the corner from my house!

(unlike unclaimed luggage... :( )
