Where do you get your print cartridges from ?
 
I've come to the conclusion that I am spending far too much on Print cartridges. I have the HP Deskjet 930C printer and it takes one black and one MultiColour cartridge.

The colour costs over £30 and I'm sure there must be some cheaper places. I'm tempted to try the Tesco ones that do the same. Does anyone know if they are any good ?

There must be a place for the cheapest cartridges.
If you know it, please post here.

I've also heard people that refill them with kits. Anyone know if thats worth it ?


Thanks all.

Halcyon.

I use these http://.inkcycle.co.uk found them very good

I did try years ago to fill my own but..... the ink eventually blocked the jets of my epson :dozey:

Believe it or not its a copyright issue why hewlet packard and lexmarks cartridges are so expensive(pattern parts)The copyright is in the print head,cheap epson and canon cartridges do not have the print head attached and this is where they differ.Manufacturers slightly alter the design of the reservoir so they dont break copyright,of course print heads can't be copied differently or they would not work.

I use a epson R300 5 colours and a black and the total set cost me £7 quid , mind you I do have a buddy owns a consumerables shop lol lol

Well when you're a tight wad like me..... :) They're really good - quick delivery and no hassle. I like the way their website looks like the office junior did it too!

The last HP cartridge I bought was from www.savastore.com
Even with delivery it was cheaper than the same product at Tesco's.

Slightly tangential to topic, but I use these people for laser toner refills. I have the samsung where you just prise off a cap and pour the new toner in.

I have found a couple of sites for Epson CX6600 printer cartridges (yes I know, but we cannot afford, and nor do we need to replace it at the mo).

Anyone recommend a good online ink cartridge supplier (that is up to date).

Thanks
