What are some of these solutions? At one point, I used some sort of refillable thing, and those were such a waste or time. It was a mess and the quality sucked................Then, I started buying expired cartridges on ebay, and somehow have not been doing that for awhile. IIRC, the kind I needed didn't seem to on ebay anymore................I recently looked at one of the receipts my secretary gave me for buying ink, and I was like Whoa, I think I have to start looking for alternatives again!
