Thread Name: TECH: Re-Filling Printer Ink Cartridges
Subject: RE: HELP: Re-Filling Printer Ink Cartridges
UK side of the pond!

I tried refill, and I reckon my hands, desk, and other items involved will be back to their normal colour any year now.

I use a company called Inkcycle, who sell pattern cartridges.

For my Epson Stylus Photo 750, a six pack of black, and a six pack of five colour cartridges comes to GBP23 approx.

These are unchipped ICs as the print head is in the printer. I have been using this printer for more than three years with no sign of decreasing quality.

Chipped cartridges will not give as good savings, HP are the worst, I believe (about 15% lower than other suppliers).

Inkcycle make three promises.

1. If you find the same product cheaper they will refund twice the difference.

2. All their cartridges are recycled in their own plant.

3. All cartridges are filled, not to the standard mark, but to the maximum the cartridge will hold.

They will also refund or replace without quibble if ICs are not up to standard, and their prices (in the UK) include delivery, VAT, etc.

I don't know if they operate in the USA, but I would recommend them to anyone.
