Hi
I have a canon i560 and for the last couple years I have buying canon ink but now I am starting to think of buying generic ink. I use to have a old epson printer and we started buy refill kits and all of a sudden it started not to print out as well. This could have been from the ink we where buying(this was like a refill kit you can buy from a store that refills almost every printer on the sun) or it could just have been because the printer was like 10 years old.
Either way this turned me off from buying generic ink. I am now reconsidering it. I am seeing that buying ink for the canon i560 is getting expensive. Like I bought color ink 4 months ago and its already out and I don't use color ink that that much(but still need it so not having is not an alternative) and I print everything in draft mode. It the same thing with black it runs out pretty fast(I used black ink more though but still usually on draft mode).
So I figure I pay about $250can a year on just ink. Thats quite a bit since I think that was about the price of the canon printer(maybe even less I can't remember now I bought it like 3 years ago). Even though say the ink would break the printer after a year then the amount of money I would have saved would be enough to probably buy a new printer but I like this printer but at the same time I don't like paying so much for ink.
So I am trying to find a good site that sells good quality ink. I am finding this hard since they all claim there ink is good so its hard to tell.
I been looking at 123inkjets.com since they got pretty good prices and ship to Canada. However I am not sure how good there ink is.
Also I am not sure what I should be getting should I get a refill kit where I refill it myself since many sites claim their refill kits are high quality inks made in the U.S.A(forgot the site it was something 123- they seem to like start with 123) but the ones that are already filled up they don't mention where they where made and if the ink is that high quality. The problem is if I go this route I will eventually need to buy a new cartage since I hear they only can be refilled so many times(another reason why our epson printer could have broken we used the same cartage dozens of times)
I also saw some sites that where on this site.
http://www.atlanticinkjet.com/
http://www.inkdepot.biz/c
not sure if they all sell the same stuff
So can anyone help me out?
edit
I think this might be the site that has the made in usa refill kit. http://www.123-refills.com/comuninkjetr.html
Also its important to note one more thing it has to be still pretty cheap prices. Like I for color ink it has to be alot less then $15.79can and for black $17. So if the ink and shipping make the cost like $10+ for like color and like $12+ I would have to think about it like sure I am saving $5 but at the same time is that little bit of savings worth the risk.
