Ink Cartridge need a Compatible Version Out There ? ? ? (ScottG) I'm laying down 90% color on each Disc at the Best, High, Gloss setting on each, and I've been getting over 180 CD/DVD's from one Ink Cartridge. This is well above the estimate of 100 as published. I just need to figure out how to refill the ink cartridge, and soon.

Scott: Try CarrotInk. They don't list the Dymo but they have Universal Inkjet refill kits.

I don't have an answer, Scott, but seeing as how the 3-color cartridge is such a limitation, both in ink usage and in printing pure blacks, I wonder what the possibility is that Dymo will bring out a DiscPainter II shortly, with at least 2 cartridges. There's certainly room for them back there, and it makes a lot of sense. With my luck, they'll do it right after I buy the 3-color version. ;-)Thanks for your review. Re the dithering, is it really that bad when printing in high-resolution? Seems like at 1200 dpi the dithering ought to be minimal, but then I haven't seen one of these.

I have used 2 Epson Artisan 50 Printers & they work great on CD's or DVD's. I will probably purchase another Epson Artisan 50 when the one I have now stops working. It uses independent ink cartridges which are much less in cost. Thanks for your help

I have purchased refill kits consisting of the the ink suggested by the manufacturer, in my case TO69(series) Epson ink. The kit contained 5 sets of 3 colors + black squeese bottles containing 30ml of ink in each bottle. The bottles have a resealable spout small enough to fit in the refill hole (with stopper) in your non-oem cartridge. The printer occasionally quits recognizing the cartridge, in which case I usually only have to remove the cartridge and reinstall it. Search until you find kits of bottles recommended for your printer. My kit contained 750ml of ink for around 10/12 dollars plus shipping. I am satisfied with the results.

I am trying to find the ink for my printer to have on hand when the ink that comes with it runs out. So far, I can only find a 4 pack - it uses 7 cartridges. Do you have to purchase the other 3 separately? Thanks

I'm thinking of buying this printer. I LOVE using Picasa3. If I buy this particular printer and I will be using Picasa3 and IF I find the same problems you are talking about, I'll get back to you. Thanks for the information you've passed along. I've LOVED my HP Photosmart 7550 but it just quit accepting ANY ink cartridges! Can't find it's problem. Printed beauuuuuutifully.

Happened to me before. I already told buyers beware. Do not buy any "Remanufactured Ink Cartridge" at any places. Because it's a RIP-OFF!!! Buy a brand new. That's it.

Ink pig is a mild term. I printed about 12 pages of text and labeled 10 or so discs. The ink cartridges that came with the machine are practically empty. What's the deal? I have had an Epson R200 now for a couple of years and have only had to replace the cartridges once. I would hate to pay for high capacity cartridges and only get double output. I guess I need to take O'Shaughnessey's advice and gripe out Epson!

try megatoners.com. avg price is 2.99 per cartridge. this is compatable ink complete with chip. it's a good outfit. purchased from them several times.

Hmmm. . .check to see if you loaded it right? Is the ink actually printing out? Might be some missing pieces or broken pieces since they are only compatible and not the designated design. Check to see if the seller refurbished this product because most of them are.

Heh heh, is the cartridge a genuine Lexmark product? Because the literature says that Lexmark is all you can use. If it is a Lexmark, but just aged, then you might be able to talk them into a replacement. If it's not a Lexmark product, then it sounds like the printer is rejecting it, and i don't know how to tell you to override that. Hope this helps at least a little bit.

i have purchased 4 of these things and they all work perfectly with the ciss cartridge that comes with your purchase. On occasion (very seldom) does it say it doesnt recognize the cartridge so i simply recharge the ink system process as if you were replacing them but never really do lol then simply do the print cleaning process and it should work. Only issue i have always had with these things is the small wheels that hold the paper down smear or leave dots on your sub paper design which transfers over to your item without fail! I did manage to fix this where it now works perfectly by r...............

I've always thrown the cartridges away. I've never tried to refill any cartridges. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

I have slightly enlarged a few to refill.. But stopped. I found that my Canon Chip resetter (Amazon $6) didn't always reset on some used units. Besides I buy Amazon Cartridges so cheap, it's not worth getting Ink all over my fingers & sink cleanup (for a few pennies) They're so cheap, & good Canon ink isn't free. 1 vendor's case for my MG5220 B wouldn't fit.. ( I wouldn't waste 46 cents to mail it back to Amazon) since all the other carts were OK since I bought extras. Suggest you try 2 different Amazon suppliers to validate their quality to see what works for you!

Hello!While I can't speak for everyone, we have had an awesome experience with this refill! We are on our second refill & the printer's performance is fine (as it has been performing we purchased ir). I can't imagine ever buying two ink cartridges for the price of a printer again. Hope this helps. :)

My Epson printer suggests longer drying times on premium surfaces. I assume there less penetration of the inks but there's no evident additional ink required. After you see the exceptional finish of this DVD with premium inks, you really won't care. It's better than the Verbatim finish in my opinion and rarely is there a burning failure.

There is a compatible system on Amazon. You need to search by the type of printer you own. You can't just take an system and throw it it. Also, there are issues with the systems. I bought one and one of the cartridges leaked in the box. I'm looking ot get refillable cartridges without the connecting reservoir. Less issues that way. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Doffice-products&field-keywords;=deskjet+1000+continuous+ink&rh;=n%3A1064954%2Ck%3Adeskjet+1000+continuous+ink Found this. Maybe it'll help. Do lots of research before you commit to buy. Read the reviews even though a lot may be biased. At least you will get a better idea of what it is and whether or not you really want to chance it on a reservoir system. There is a compatible system on Amazon.

You could also look for a local ink refiller. There's a store where I live that refills ink cartridges. It's very cheap and they put over 20% more ink in the cartridge than the manufacturers. (They don't fill them up.)
