How many of us are still refilling ink cartridges?

I refill on a regular basis my two current printers :

- Pro10s : mix of OEM and Octoinkjet inks.
- Maxify MB5150 : OEM ink from G56 bottles for CYM colors and Inktec ink for Black.

Fact is that nowadays I print very little. Almost no photos and not much text, so I guess that my Pro10s wastes more inks on cleaning cycles than on the actual photo.

I'm not complaining. The present printhead (the second of my Pro10s ) has behaved nicely for several years. Nevertheless, we all know that Canon printheads sometimes die suddenly for no apparent reason without a B200 error warning. Touching on wood.

I'm refilling both my:
Pro 100 for photos, and
Canon TS302 for work. I print much less that I did, say 10 years ago, as I'm migrated over to pdfs for business stuff.

Still doing it! Saves money and is better for the environment. ✌️
