    Do I need to stick with brand specific ink?

    Ok, I will stick with the ink designed for my printer brand to avoid complications. If I buy ink that's not for my specific model, are there any other negative effects other than incorrect color match? THanks for your help

    Do I need to stick with brand specific ink?

    I have an Epson printer and I plan on buying refillable cartridges. I'm going to use dye ink, but do I have to buy ink that's specifically labeled for Epsons or can I use also use ink that's labeled as Canon ink? I'm using my printer to mainly print stuff for school so it doesnt need to be the...

    Thanks, but those directions sound like they're talking about aftermarket refillable cartridges.

    Are Epson OEM 69 Cartridges Refillable?

    Two different reputable sources on this forum gave me contradictory information. One said it couldn't be refilled and another said that it could. I did a quick search online and it looks like it might be possible if you're careful not to tear a plastic liner inside. If it's really difficult to...

    Refillable Cartridges

    I've been searching on this forum and see that inksupply.com has a good reputation. While looking for a refillable cartridge and ink, I noticed that inksupply carries a cartridge for my printer that looks very similar to ones on ebay. The labels look almost 100% identical. Does anyone know if...

    Turning printer off vs Standby mode?

    Thanks for the info. I called Epson and they told me that the bright green LED will stay on permenantly; if powered on and even in standby mode. The LCD is supposed to go blank while in standby mode. The rep told me that if I'm only printing once every few days, it's better to just turn the...

    Why no one is using Megatoners Canon cartridge?

    I thought my friend's experience would be applicable because wouldn't a generic replacement for his printer be of similar quality as one for my printer? He said one thing I should be worried about is that mine has a chip in the cartridge and he's not sure if my printer would recognize it.

    Best place to buy cartridges for Canon MX860

    Does Hobbicolors have anything for Epson printers? I tried clicking on the link, but it didn't take me to an Epson page. They sell both the cartridge and ink right? The precisioncolor site isn't too user friendly for the ink refill newbie. They only sell ink that you use with your current...

    Why no one is using Megatoners Canon cartridge?

    Sorry to bring back an old thread. I just bought a new Epson Workforce 310 AIO and was shopping around for inexpensive ink. I saw that Ebay had a bunch of replacement cartridges for this printer for only about $2 shipped, but everyone here warns that using cheap ink will kill the printer. My...
