WHAT IS THE EASIEST PRINTER CART TO REFILL ???
I have 2 old Canon 5000 printers which have worked flawlessly for the past 8
years, and they are a breeze to refill the cartridges. I am thinking of getting 2 new "combo" printers, copiers, scanners. Who makes the best and the easiest to refill ??? RON ================================================== ====== Remove the ZZZ from my E-mail address to send me E-mail. |

And the Measekite troll can't believe I'm running one of my current printers almost 2 years without trouble while refilling. Measekite will just LOVE to hear you've been refilling successfully for almost a decade. -Taliesyn |

I am thinking of getting 2 new "combo" printers, copiers, scanners. Who makes the best and the easiest to refill ??? Ron - there may still be a few multifunction Canon printers in the pipeline that take the bci-6 and bci-3ebk carts. These units have the ip4000 printer engine and are quite good. I saw a post about a week ago about sealed-box, refurbished mp780's. Any of the multipurpose Canon units that take four bci-6 and one bci-3ebk would be desirable if you can't find an ip5000 or ip6000. I understand that the refurbished units come with a new sealed printhead as well as a full set of OEM inks. That would give you an extra OEM cart set which are the best for refilling anyway. If you can't find one of these units you might consider an ip4300 which would give similar results to the ip5000. They are selling for under $100 and often have rebates. There are ink sets available for them from several good vendors. Refilling is the same as the ip5000 except that the carts are chipped and when they show empty give you the warning screens about continuing to print with an empty or refilled cart . You can get rid of this screen, but you will lose the ink monitoring function. No big deal as you have been refilling for years and know to visually check your ink levels before any extensive print job. |

I was thinking of refilling some cartridges, but a really clever guy called Measekite on here showed me how doing this could cause my house to burn down, my young daughter could catch syphilis, my cat could die, and maybe even cause a mini black hole (or cyan or yellow or magenta) to develop and swallow the earth! So I just buy regular ones, and keep the world safe. |
