Most people I suggest it to think it sounds fascinating - but they say they don't print enough to warrant the hassle.

I can tell you from my own experiences to be very careful evangelizing the benefits of refilling.

In my early days I was a strong advocate of refilling. As we all know there are certain disciplines and procedures that need to be followed to achieve success.

Some of my new adherents were less than diligent, and felt the slightest hiccup they encountered was my fault. In other words I found myself owning all their refilling problems. It was stressful and time consuming explaining over and over the same things. Mainly, even if you are only printing black, you need ALL tanks to contain ink.

Now if anyone expresses interest in refilling I am supportive and then refer them to JToolman`s excellent Youtube videos, and sleep better at night.

Lesson learned.

Refilling a cartridge can be as easy as putting on your shoes in the morning, but if you don’t tie your laces properly there’s a good chance you can trip up.

The same applies to using refill carts in a printer, when you’re out walking you still have to watch you don’t stand in Poop..
Who knew refilling cartridges could be such a complex subject.. :lol:

I have had the same experience. Not only in refilling, but any computer issues. I had people say "Fix it or else!" when something goes south. I quote Roy... "Lesson Learned"!
