Refilling Ink Cartridge
Reader’s Question:
I have not used refills and unamed brands in my printer. Do those refills on printer ink now offered at stores really work? I don’t want to damage my inkjet.

Ink refills actually work – you just have to make sure you choose the right ink designed for your make and model of printer. It is also possible to damage the printer by using the wrong type of ink.
Those ink refill kiosks in malls do a good job – let them do it and let them clean up the mess.
Now here comes the disadvantage. Refilling an ink cartridge will void a printer’s warranty. So if you are planning to take the printer back under warranty for repair, you better replace the refilled ink cartridge with a new one.
Also, I would suggest not refilling cartridges more than 2 or 3 times. They were never designed for extended use and you will notice a difference when you put a new cartridge in your printer.
