I did not do a true cost comparison for the ink cartridges. All I know is the kit (with its initial bottle of ink meant to refill the cartridge about 7 times) cost a little more (with shipping) than a single new cartridge.Franceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17498828064686986382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4070730304128292781.post-82063941311497260382008-09-24T16:44:00.000-04:002008-09-24T16:44:00.000-04:00Frances,I didn't realize you could do this--will h...Frances,<BR/><BR/>I didn't realize you could do this--will have to keep it in mind. Did you happen to figure out the savings of DIY vs. buying new cartridges at the store?*carrie*https://www.blogger.com/profile/10545859613596796648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4070730304128292781.post-50827209106132111462008-09-24T15:43:00.000-04:002008-09-24T15:43:00.000-04:00I'm going to try this.

I usually do my refilling on newspaper on the kitchen floor and keep paper towels nearby to catch the drips and any overflow from the cartridge head.Franceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17498828064686986382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4070730304128292781.post-9356189279893394352008-09-24T13:18:00.000-04:002008-09-24T13:18:00.000-04:00I too refill my black ink cartridges, never tried ...I too refill my black ink cartridges, never tried color either. <BR/><BR/>Tip #1 - I bought bulk ink refill bottles (no kit) through a company on ebay - 4 bottles that are about 1/4 the size of a soda bottle for like $15. Usually once you have a kit you don't need another one. <BR/><BR/>Tip #2 - I have terrible troubles with somehow ending up with black on my fingers & table anytime I refill. Rubbing alcohol will take off most ink. And if you do the dishes the rest will come off HAHA!<BR/><BR/>love your wfm!Anne M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03891579621760424876noreply@blogger.com
