When it comes to choosing to use refilled ink cartridges in an inkjet printer, there are both positive and negative aspects to be considered. Manufacturers claim that your warranty will be voided and your printer damaged by using cartridges that have been refilled.<\/p>\n

Companies that sell refills for cartridges, however, want you to believe that their lower priced ink will work just as well as the manufacturer’s in your printer.<\/p>\n

In reality, there is truth<\/a> to what both sides claim. Consider the pros and cons of using refill ink.<\/p>\n

Pros<\/p>\n

Refill ink costs quite a bit less than a new ink cartridge, and after you need new ink several times, this can add up to a substantial savings. <\/p>\n

Using refill ink will also allow you to recycle your ink cartridge and thereby help the environment, besides saving you money.<\/p>\n

Readily available, you can store extra refill ink at home and you will be able to continue printing no matter when your cartridge runs out of ink. If you are using a Dell printer, for example, this is a huge benefit. This is because Dell ink is not available in stores; it has to be ordered directly from Dell.<\/p>\n

Cons<\/p>\n

The actual process of refilling your printer’s ink can be a bit difficult and if something goes wrong you might have problems printing after refilling. Since printer manufacturers want you to buy their ink, they intentionally design cartridges that are not easy to refill.<\/p>\n

Ink can easily be spilled while you are refilling a cartridge, so it shouldn’t be done while you’re wearing clothes you are worried about staining. Bad print quality can also be caused by air bubbles that form in the ink during the refilling process.<\/p>\n

Lastly, the manufacturer’s warranty on your printer can be cancelled out through the use of refill ink. Think seriously about whether or not the money you will save by buying refill ink is really worth voiding your warranty and possibly having to replace your printer yourself.<\/p>\n
