If like me you fed up of being mistaken for a pigeon by buying ink cartridges for your printer brand, sold at the price of caviar, I suggest you take a look at Ebay .
There are refill kits that allow you to print an unbeatable price.
Considering the price, 16 € including postage, I decided to test a refill kit (bottles ink). FYI one cartridge brand costs 8 € and it takes 5 ... or 40 € if you chose the 5
So I bought what I needed at Falkonstore , excellent seller, very good contact.
What's this? Simply
small bottles of ink, although with a fucking needle to refill your cartridges once they are empty. Provided in addition with a pair of gloves to avoid dirtying (ink stain heavily on the skin).
How many times can you refill the cartridges?
The volume of ink contained in the bottles you can fill your cartridges 6 times. You can imagine the economy.
cartridges are not reusable at infinity, one after a certain number of filling the sponge contain it crashed. It will then buy the cartridges about every 8 fillings.
However there are also kits to print at infinity, called CISS (Continuous Ink Supply System). In this case no need to buy cartridges, sold € 49 with large well-filled ink tanks. In this case, it will take off the chip located on the old cartridges to stick on the news with a cutter. These chips can prevent the use of cartridges other than those of the brand ... thank you HP! How we
done?
It's very simple, remove the cartridge is laying upside down and poured ink on the towel lying down, without needle puncture. No need to break anything or open a vent.
quality printing?
Personally I saw no difference with the original ink.
Problems?
cartridges are still reported as empty because the printer does not know they have been fulfilled. This does nothing to print.
How we save?
official Cartridges HP C5380 (Ink 364):
5x8 € = 40 € (Excluding shipping) for 6
change cartridges: 6x40 = 240 €!
Filling:
€ 16 (including postage) for the equivalent of 6 cartridge changes
Fill cartridges takes about 10 minutes.
Kit ISSC:
€ 49 (including postage) for the equivalent of 50 cartridges
or 49 / 6 = 8.2 € for the 6-'équivalent cartridge change
Review:
CISS is 29x cheaper than HP cartridges
Filling is 15 times less expensive than HP cartridges and 2x more expensive than CISS
That, I think it's easy to decide what is most interesting from a financial point of view now. Ya no photo
