I worked as a mechanic for Ollivetti.
i also serviced: Oce, Xerox, Hp and some less known manufacturers and trust me when i say we turned down 40% of the warranty cases because the heads are damaged due to refilled cartridges.
U can try with Laser printers but the drums often dont distribute eventy so the result is crap, no damage done though.
A lot of printers get damaged with the use of refilled catridges.
There are a lot of fake cartridges on the market that are cheap and do the job perfecty.
I agree that brand cartridges are very expensive but the manufacturers keep the possibility of refilling in mind when designing the cartridges.
They aren't built to be refilled and refilled.
They want you to go and buy a new cartridge.
some of the older jet printers were built more solid and if u have the original cartridge that came with the printer u can try refilling that. chances are it's a little stronger than the ones in the store.
that's about all the advice i can give u.
well ok don't let mice make babies inside your printer.
