One of the reasons I like my Canon home printer. It comes with see-through cartridges so you can tell that it really is empty.
On an older model I had it was easy to refill them myself using a DIY kit from Costco. These days I can buy 3rd party cartridges pretty cheaply and they work fine (and are probably worth it to avoid the mess of DIY refills).
- zdw 15y agoI'm more hesitant to refill inkjet cartridges that don't have an integrated print head, as I've seen cases where mixed ink vendors resulted in unfixable clogged heads. This was only with very cheap ink refills though. For HP and Lexmark printers where the head is built into the cartridge, it obviously isn't an issue, but for Canon and Epson I'm more hesitant to do so.
