What do you think of refill kit for HP deskjet printer ?

Question

I bought a refill kit similar to that : http://cgi.ebay.fr/HP-94-C8765W-BLACK-INK-CARTRIDGE-REFILL-KIT_W0QQitemZ250099313229QQcategoryZ99320QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD2VQQcmdZViewItem

It worked fine. But after 3 months maybe, it doesn't print well, lines of printing are missing. I refilled the cartridges and cleaned them, but it's the same. So I have to buy new cartridges.
Was I unlucky ? or the refill kit is not a reliable solution ?

Answer 1

If you are not using and cleaning a cartridge regularity you are going to get lines. Cartridges are designed for single use.

A higher level of maintenance and care is needed to keep them printing well. Print head cleanings every two weeks as well as not letting them run out before refilling them is essential to getting the most out of a refill kit. You also have to remember that after putting in ink you can only expect the cartridge to print as well as it was prior to the refill. make sure you are refilling when the cartridge is printing well in the future.

Answer 2

A Big NO...
As per HP ,If u use refilled ink cartridge ,the INK-DELIVER-SYATEM of the printer goes bad and in the long run the printer will be deand sooner than later.also if hp knows of using refilled cartridges ,the warranty of the Printer will be void then and there.

Generally each cart can be filled at most "twice". The circuit board in the cart has a finite life, as it's designed that way.
