Hi guys,

Just wondering if any of you folks use refillable inkjet cartridges, and had good results without clogging print heads, etc. If it works decently, I wouldn't mind trying it out, haven't done much research into it yet.

Thanks!
 
I have a set of epson refillable auto reset carts and a couple of bottles of ink from some guy off of eBay. Works great though it does require a bit of maintenance. I also had inksets for my HP printer but it was a nightmare to get going since there are no cartridge resets for some of the more recent cartridge types. Epson has a great following on the refillable/Continuous ink supply scene, probably because they're so hackable.
 
People still use inkjets?

Get lasers!

Only reason to still have inkjet is photo printing.
 
inkjets are a lot cheaper , i am not a excessive printer user any more , so usually one fill lasts near 2 years now ,so its cheaper to get a new printer as new ink cost more then a new printer nowadays ,and refilling i tried several times in the past , but it can get pretty messy so i leave it to others
