Page 1 of Cheap Ink Refills

Lidl have ink refill kit at only £1.99 and they are Hewlett Packard ink.I was a bit concerned that using these things would be messy but I found it quite simple and I have a Canon Pixma ip4000 printer.Did some test prints on photo quality paper and results where ok. :)

Canon printers are easier to refill than most, as their cartridges contain no electronics (which is a very good reason for having them). I doubt that the Lidl refill are actually HP ink, as HP don`t encourage refilling (ink cartridges are where all their profit comes from), but as most inkjets use the same principle, ink formulations tend to be similar. Epson use pigment ink in some printers, and their ink propulsion method is different, so Epson-specific inks may not work in other printers.

Poundland have printer cartridges for Canon iP4000 (and others - I think Epson) for £1...seem to work ok!
