Suggestions for where to acquire quality bulk ink? |
|
|
I do a lot of printing. Far too much to resort to OEM cartridges.
Could you lurkers out there suggest where I might acquire quality bulk
inks for my Canon and HP printers? I would appreciate you help.
Thanks in advance. |

IF YOU DO IN FACT HAVE A HIGH PRINTLOAD THEN YOU MOST LIKELY DO NOT HAVE
CHOICE AND WILL HAVE TO PUT UP WITH THE WHORES WHO SELL AFTERMARKET INKS.
WHILE SENSINENT, MAKER OF FORMULABS APPEARS TO BE THE BEST IN
AFTERMARKET INK THEY WILL ONLY SELL DIRECT IF YOU BUY INK BY THE
GALLON. THEY DO SELL TO VENDORS BUT MOST OF THESE VENDORS WILL NOT
DISCLOSE THE MFG/FORMULATOR OF THE INK THEY SELL.
IT GETS WORSE. IF YOU WANT TO AVOID THE MESSY PAIN IN THE ASS OF
REFILLING CARTS AND WANT TO BUY PREFILLED CARTS THEN YOU WILL NEVER KNOW
WHAT IS IN THEM. YOU CAN HAVE PROBLEMS WITH CARTS FROM ONE VENDOR, THEN
SSWITCH VENDORS AND WIND UP WITH THE SAME THING.
IT IS A TOUGH CALL. BE CAREFUL NOT TO GET A PRINT CLOG. IFYOU DO PRINT
A LOT AND DO NOT LEAVE YOUR PRINTER FOR LONG BETWEEN PRINT JOBS THEN YOU
SHOULD BE ABLE TO REDUCE THE RISK.
JUST BE CAREUL OF ALL OF THE KIDS AND OLD FARTS ON THIS FORUM WHO THRIVE
ON FIXING PROBLEMS.

From my personal experience MIS inks are very, very good. I use
http://www.inksupply.com/ to purchase them.

Remember, the most important fact to know about the ink you intend to
use is how it performs which only an experienced user can testify to.
All other info about the ink is totally insignificant, useless and unneeded.

I don't use refills in my HP... I have bought refills once from
www.lasermonks.com.
For my canons i've been using MIS www.inksupply.com . They do a decent
job. After the 3rd refill I had to do a heavy leaning for the cyan...
so unlike other users I can't claim a perfect track record, but it's
pretty good. The total volume i've used is two ounces for each refill
except for the pigment black and dye black, which I consume less than
1/2 that of the other colors.
This guy did a test of what I use vs canon vs some other guys I have no
experence with.

Who could be such an incompetent klutz that he would have any problem |
refilling a cartridge (especially Canon, which even the biggest fool on
earth could refill with his eyes closed)?
Oh, you are? Sorry! I guess you can't do anything for yourself, then.
Better log off quick, before you screw up your computer.
Seriously, if you can't do simple things like this for yourself, you
should be institutionalised! Oh! maybe you already are. .... That would
explain everything. |

AND IF YOU BELIEVE THIS PUTZ THEN I HAVE A BRIDGE IN BROOKLYN I WOULD
LIKE TO SELL YOU. ALL OF THE PROFESSIONIAL REVIEWERS HAVE CATEGORICALLY
STATED THAT AFTERMARKET INKS CAN CAUSE PROBLEMS FOR YOUR PRINTER, ARE
NOT AS DURABLE, AND YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU ARE GETTING. ADDITIONALLY
THEY ARE NOT CONSISTANT FROM BATCH TO BATCH. |

YOU CAN USUALLY TAKE A RISK IN AN HP THAT HAS THE INK AND PRINTHEAD
COMBINED. THE ONLY RISK THERE IS LEAKAGE AND A LOSS OF A FEW DOLLARS.
BUT THE RISK IS MUCH HIGHER IN EPSON AND CANON PRINTERS WHERE YOU ARE
RISKING THE PRINTHEAD.

"IN DA BIZNUS" (maybe I didn't get that exactly right, not being an

There is no risk with well chosen inks such as those recommended by
actual experienced users in this newsgroup, you paranoid babbling fool
(and, by the way, your capslock key is stuck on)
