    Anyone who owns a printer can attest that buying new ink cartridges can get expensive. If you do a lot of printing, inkjet refills are a way to save money. If refill kits are available for your ink cartridge type, give one a try. Many people have reported good results with these kits. Look for well-known brands that get good user reviews online.

    On the Other: Some Disadvantages

    The ink cartridges themselves may degrade over time, meaning you'll have to replace them anyway even if you use a refill kit. Some printer manufacturers have installed sensors or microchips that detect third-party ink and cause the printer to stop working unless a brand-new cartridge is installed. If your printer is under warranty, using third-party refillers may void the warranty.

    Bottom Line

    You should be able to use ink refill kits, though you may have to replace the cartridges occasionally. If you're uncomfortable performing the task yourself, look for a refilling business in your area. Other ways to save money on printing include using the "economy printing" option, printing in black instead of color, and reducing font size so you have fewer pages to print.
