Re: Printer Inks
There was a time you could order ink tanks very cheap online at 999 inks, And you never had a problem these printers today mine is H.P. Scanner Printer, You have to buy there ink with the code for your printer or the printer rejects them. When you peel off the foil security strip from the cartridge itself the printer has to recognise the chip on the tank, The best advice I ever got leave the printer on they sleep until they are called upon, Otherwise left cold the ink solidifies in the printer and you will end up paying a fortune over and over again, No sell by date on mine however you could own a printer that is to be dis continued................. Therefore they are fore warning you Regards Terry.

If you are finding H.P. inks expensive, try Cartridge World. They say their inks are compatible and guarantee it so. Just buy say one black cartridge as an experiment to see how it goes.
I have an excellent ADVENT all in one wireless printer/scanner/copier, which is a PC world own brand made by god only knows and every time I went into PC world they never had new ink cartridges for my printer. The ones I get from Cartridge World are excellent and work fine.

Re: Printer Inks
I have tried some of those Compatible Inks on my Epson Stylus 514 printer/scanner. and most times Not Compatible, and one of ASDAs spilled the ink all over the inside, They took it and cleaned it for me.
Cheers
