I believe you. My old HP DeskJet 895 Cxi just keeps on chuggin'. Now Costco will reload the
cartridge while you wait for about $7. I didn't see that sign until after I put the new printer on
my wish list. But, I like the extra capabilities of the Samsung.


The operative word is "old". The new ones use a cartridge with a chip
that keeps you from refilling them. If the chip says it is empty,
putting more ink in it will not get it to say full again.
Ink jets are a scam. They give away the printer and make their money
on the ink. Like everything else, 3d parties are trying to take a bite
out of that model tho.

I just prefer a laser. The prints are water proof, you can make
"foils" and they end up cheaper in the long run if you print a lot.


I dunno... Like I said, we pay about 66 cents a cartridge but it's not
available for my Lexmark so not for all jet printers. Thankfully it is
for our Office "Brother"...
