Would It Be Cheaper To Get Your Ink Cartridges Refilled Rather Than To Buy A New One?
Filed in Deskjet Help Forums on ต.ค..26, 2009
I have an HP photosmart D5360 printer. I print lots of pics and documents so would it be cheaper to just buy a new ink nartridge at Circuit City or should I just get them refilled at the ink shop?

Why go cheap?. It is safer for your printer if you put a NEW cartridge in it. Sometimes saving a few pennies can cost you lots of money.
I am not saying refilling is bad, but just to be safe. (printer)

take a look at the refilling instructions available at http://www.inkreloaded.com/instructions for help on refilling your cartridge. i always buy my ink their and it matches the original quality ink in my lexmark printer i really give them five stars they even help you out by pressing the live help button if you are a customer.

It depends, if you want to print photos that you keep. It’s better for you to stick with genuine cartridge. Reason: No inks in the market can beat the quality of the genuine cartridge.
However, if you are just print picture/graphic that soon will be thrown away then refilling is a reasonable option.
Once your cartridge refilled, it need to be resetted because the printer remembers that your cartridge was empty. There are procedures to do that but it depends on your cartridge model. I am not sure for your model. You can search in Google with following keyword:
- reset ink level [your printer name]
- reset ink level [your cartridge number]
For sake of convenience, you may consider of remanufactured cartridge, it’s already refilled and ready to use. It is cheaper compare to genuine cartridge. Hope this help.

The cheaper option is Refilling. It’ll cost you a fraction of what you spent on buying the cartridge.

yes refill it, but asap don’t let the cartidge get dry.
don’t use cartidge world! they only refill half so you comeback to them quickly, any other private shop should be okay remember refill should lasts as long as new.
your printer will still warn you about low ink, just ignore it.
