    At Office Depot or Staples. I know Costco will "refill" your ink cartridges; however, I would prefer unopened ink cartridges.

    HP prices are much cheaper than anywhere else, free 2-day shipping and guarantee. The remanufactured refilled, etc. are often inferior quality and the cartridges are not always full.
    In some instances generics are a good buy, but sometimes your best bet is the name brand.
    Bottom line, "You get what you pay for"

    I take my empty cartridges in to Costco and they refill them for about $7. a bit more for color, but under $10. I am pleased with it.
    It takes about an hour from start to finish and I walk out with them. Just enough time to have a Berry Sunday and read their magazine.

    I buy mine at 123inkjet.com or printpal.com which ever is cheapest and have never had a problem.

    I tried using refilled ink cartridges and ruined my printer. They leaked and messed it up so they couldn't repair it.

    I have used Walgreens refills for last 2 years and have had no problem with them.

    I'm surprised that more people don't know about continuous ink supplies for many, if not most, printers.
    We have the setups on both our printers. By the time you've paid $35 or so for new cartridges four or five times, you could have paid for the continuous ink supply. What a great invention. Even non-techie me can refill the ink cartridges and that wasn't needed for probably two years. Google "continuous ink supplies" to find a system compatible with your printer.
