Hello All,
So I am in a quandary. Do I..........buy clear, non OEM 225 and 226's, with a chip and filled.
OR
Do I buy clear, non OEM 225 and 226's, with a chip and NOT FILLED.
I know it seems like a very simple question but I am wondering the following. Is there any true "reliability" factor if I get the ones WITH the ink in it VS virgin ones ?
I know in the perfect world that buying OEM's and refilling them is the best road but I'd prefer not to deal with the dark 225/221 cartridges.
Here is another item that put a question mark on my head. I sent off an email to a seller that is offering the virgin 225/226's and asked him about the "Durchstich" refill method and this was his response that I found VERY surprising.
"Obviously we would neither recommend NOR support drilling any unnecessary additional holes into these cartridges like the duestsch method".
Being introduced to the "Durchstich" refill method only about a week ago, is the "Durchstich" refill method only suggested for OEM's ? Am I Missing something here ?
Any input is appreciated and thank you in advance.
