    I have a HP all in one 1410. I get my ink from inkclub - 3 times the size of the HP cartridges same price.

    If you need a full av suite, I got my Kapersky suite free through trial pay just by buying £20 worth of ink from inkclub.

    Hello Krfc07

    I'll move your thread to the 'Shop but don't drop' board, where it can be merged with the 'Hewlett Packard Cartridges' thread by the Board Guides.

    Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: I’ve asked Board Guides to move threads if they’ll receive a better response elsewhere(please see this rule) so this post/thread has been moved to another board, where it should get more replies. If you have any questions about this policy please email [EMAIL="abuse@moneysavingexpert.com"]abuse@moneysavingexpert.com[/EMAIL].

    Regards

    if you find your using alot of black ink, reset the printer settings to print
    in 'draft' mode instead, you wont notice the differnce but uses half as much ink.hope this might help.

    When you select PRINT you get what's called a dialogue box that shows you the printer that has been selected, the pages you want to print etc. Also in this dialogue box you will see a button marked PROPERTIES or PREFERENCES. Click on either and you are presented with a second dialogue box which shows your selected printers properties. As well as other things, you will see selections for FINE, NORMAL, FAST NORMAL & FAST. These are the selections that govern the amount of ink it will use. If FINE is selected, then the print quality will be superb, but it will use the most ink. If you select FAST, then the print quality wont be too hot, but you'll use much less ink.
