Cartridge refill

CLLC

Hi ,

I went to cartridge world today and they charged me £9 a refill.

Anyway , There suppose to refill MY ORIGINAL cartridges but they gave me someone elses ??? same ones but not my ones???

So i was wondering what you think i should do??? Also , can you tell me if you have had any good or bad experiences with cartridge world and how many prints it can do / the quality?

Thanks :beer:

This is normal I think - does it really matter.

in my experience refilled cartridges are not as good as the originals, they appear ok for a few days then degrade over time leaving gaps in the print where the original would have lasted a bit longer.

This could just be my printer though - it is quite old - OH has already ordered another and I have 2 sets of spare cartridges going to waste now!

What does everybody else think?

I never have any issues with cartridges for Epson anyhow

I tend to buy new unbranded inks not have refills which usually exclude Epsons due to the way they use there inks

I've always found that the companies who refil ink cartridges are a lot more expensive than just buying non-branded cartridges. The genuine Epson cartridges for my old printer were £15 each... and almost as much to refil... but it's only £1 to £2 for generic ones on eBay.

FANTASTIC!!! thank you

So is it easy to refill the black? and cheap?

yep sure! i purchased some ink from poundland when they had it. theres a hole at the top of the cartridge that you have to make bigger to take the syringe. i had all these things in with the ink. although i think tesco refill ink has the tools in it too. there are details on the net how to refill just google it.
