The printer displays the approximate level of ink in the cartridge, once they are empty, the printer doesn't allow you to print with theme, even if you refill theme. I've found several tutorials to reset the cartridges, but none of the tricks has worked for me, that is why I have to buy new cartridges every time. I've read that this is the new system HP uses in its printers to avoid the use of refilled cartridges, a practice not eco-friendly at all. | |
| Oct 1, 2013 at 9:14 | comment | added | Nate | I'm not saying that you're wrong, but how do you know that the printer won't allow refilled cartridges? Is it just that the cartridges it comes with don't have any kind of refill holes/ports? I don't think my printer's cartridges are officially refillable, but with a small drill bit, a syringe, a hot glue gun, and some bottles of ink (bought on eBay), I've refilled my ink many, many times with the original cartridges. | |
