Does anyone know for sure if Canon IP3500 or IP4500 can be refilled ?
I've tried to search everywhere, incl this forum, but I got very minimal info on these new printers. Even if there is, somehow I don't find it quite convincing or there is not enough info on them.
Can these new printers be refilled by disabling the ink counter ?
Will the procedure be exactly the same as IP 4300 ?
Does it use the same button combination to resume printing as IP4300 ?
I've been waiting for 1 month for more refilling info on them, but I really can't wait anymore. Can someone advise me ?
Btw, I have another printer, HP Deskjet 845C which is still 99% brandnew. I bought it 4-5 years ago, and damaged the cartridge within 2 weeks. I bought compatibles, and tried to refill, and again I failed. The printer just wouldn't print. I got traumatized with refilling HP cartridges and decided to buy Canon printer at the time until its death recently.
Now I have 2 options. Either I bought Canon IP3500/IP4500 or trying again my old HP 845C. My need is very basic printing with very minimal quantity (say, 2-3 pages /week), so my HP845C will actually be enough.
Buying compatible cartridges for my HP 845C will be much cheaper than buying a brandnew Canon IP3500/IP4500, but I'm really traumatized about refilling them. I don't want to end up being costly when I damage the HP cartridge again during refilling, and end up still buying a new printer. I really don't know which way to go.
I want to know what you think.
PS: I can buy IP1880 for much less, but I heard bad things about the cartridges, so it is off my list.
