Help answer this question below.

Printer ink refill kits? Should I buy this to save some money? They give you a big bottle of black ink and you drill a hole in your cartridge and inject some ink with a needle. I can save like 80% if it works. Does it work?

    It costs about the same to take your cartridge to Walgreens and have them refill it.

    Whether or not it works depends a lot on whether or not you actually do it right. The way I see it, there are two types of people here; those that will do it wrong and those that don't feel like making a mess and let someone else refill them.

    I get replacement cartridges from a store that does all the dirty work for you. Drilling holes in stuff and trying to get ink into it can be very messy. If you spill it you may end up having to pay for dry cleaning to get stains of clothes.

    I've only seen that in office environments where the printers are used everyday. I wouldn't do this in my own house because it's messy and you need a place to store it. If you only use your printer every once in awhile I would just buy the correct cartridges for your printer. Cost versus convenience may not save you that much in the long run.
