momofsbandeg Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Where do you buy your printer ink at a good price?? I need hp 60. I have ordered 3 times from Amazon - different seller each time. I had to send them all back: exploded in package or past expiration date and dried up. :glare: I really don't want to pay full price. I just printed 100 pages with the new cartridge that I bought from Best Buy and it is gone!!! I have lots more to print and I live 1 hour from the closest print shop. Where can I order affordable quality print cartridges??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bang!Zoom! Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Did you buy actual HP ink or off brand? A real HP should have lasted a lot more than that. Offbrand does not fill all the way up. You can buy a kit to refill on your own. Costco has refill stations if you are a member, I don't know if you can mail them in or not, worth checking out though. http://costcoinkjetrefill.com/pricing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fraidycat Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Someone here mentioned continuous ink systems for inkjet printers just a few days ago. I googled, and now I want. :) Maybe you should, too. ;) inkproducts.com is where I was "shopping". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaxMom Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 (edited) Supermediastore.com I get my ink and toner there ("compatible", not manufacturer), and have never had an issue. Both the ink and the toner I buy do at least the listed page estimate. Edited August 16, 2012 by MyCrazyHouse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoriK Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 I am in the same boat...I just got new ink for my HP printer (21 & 22) and the color is gone after about 30 pages. That is just wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The set I just used up with my printing 100 pages was genuine hp. I don't have a costco.:crying: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She Reads a Lot Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 I've been ordering replacement ink cartridges for my Canon inkjet for about a year now from here: http://www.4inkjets.com/ The cartridges cost less than half what I was paying from Costco (for name brand replacements) and they act exactly the same as the original/Canon ones. The printer and computer can still track the ink levels. They get mailed quickly and I've never had one explode or act weird...and we're at altitude. I can usually search and find a 10% off coupon code online, too. No idea how their HP ink is, but I'd wager that it's comparable. We ran out recently and hubby bought a black Canon cartridge replacement at Target. It showed half full after he printed like two things! So I'm definitely sold on getting my ink online forever more!

YourFidgetyFriend Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Definitely consider refilling yourself using an Amazon refill kit (or just bottles of ink, but you will have to buy syringes too). I use an HP XL cartridge and do self refill and it's pretty easy. I get about 500 pages before having to refill and I can usually refill the same cartridge 12 or so times before it goes wonky. I print at least 200 pages a week so this has saved me until I get another printer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carpe Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 I buy my ink from sourceofink on ebay, they don't have HP60 though. I know that's no help to you, but it might help someone else reading this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Rat Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 I buy my HP60 cartridges at Walmart. I buy the extra large (3 times the normal, supposedly) for $34. Costco is about the same price but I don't need the tri-color as often and my Costco is usually out of the black only packages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mom2one Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 We've had pretty good success with inktechnologies.com. Good prices, fast shipping, and if you check out google you can probably find a coupon code too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
