Printer ink cartridges

williacg

I have an Epson SX420 printer, and after scouring the web for cheap cartridges, I'm finding them quite expensive, can anyone recommend any outlets?

Thanks for any advice.

Hi,

Have you considered filling them yourself?
or getting them refillled professional by cartridge world etc?

What do you call expensive?

Compatible or new here

If you have the SX425W then there aren't compatibles for that yet

Am lucky in that all my printing is for work so I can claim for costs of new cartridges but I always shop around on amazon and ebay and find the cheapest price is usually the same people on there.

If it was my own money I would probably be getting refills or would go laser.

That's an excellent idea. Some time ago I actually bought a refill set, but I found it quite fiddly to use, and the note on the back of the package worried me a little, it stated that they were not responsible if the cartridge leaked after being filled, and it ruined your computer. But if Cartridge World refill it for you, that would be great - can I just take the pack with me and ask them to do it?

I thought as much.

Thanks for the tip.

I think I'll try the refill route.

Many thanks

Your Welcome.

Yes, you are right, it can be a bit fiddly.
Once you do it a couple of times, there is nothing to it really.
Spillage does mean you filled it up too much.

Yes, I would take the pack with you anyway.
They might use yours or have some used ones there.

Hope this helps!

I have a Cartridge World on my high street, shall call in with the refill pack, as it's a new printer, I really don't want to risk ruining it.

Thanks for the advice, it's appreciated.
