Title: Ink Cartridges
Post by: jacko on September 24, 2004, 11:51:59 am
I spend a small fortune on Ink Cartridges for my Lexmark X1160 printer - £20 - £25 per cartridge.
For this i get around 500 A4 sheets B4 the black runs out then another 250 B4 i have to replace the colour.

I do a lot of flyers and a5 cards. As well as invoices, qoute sheets, survey sheets etc. Spending around £100 per month currently.

Anyone know the best source to buy "recycled"Lexmark 16 & 26 cartridges?

i used to have a lexmark printer as they are very cheap to buy but when it came to buying the ink cartriges it would have been cheaper to buy a new printer
i know my local tesco sells a photo quality printer for 30 quid
i have since bought an epsom c84 printer and a full set of 4 compatible cartriges costs me 12 quid form my local market

Lexmark cartridges do seem to be the most expensive, I had a Lexmark printer a whil ago, and the crtridges did cost more than I paid for the printer. I chucked it out and got a Canon, and the cartridges are now about a quarter of the price that I was paying for the Lexmark ones.

I dont know what they charge for your printer cartriges,
but I can recomend them for price and quality.
