Canon Printer Tips – Replacement Ink Cartridges?
Cannon MP600 Printer (just purchased) Makes beautiful copies but where do I find less expensive cartridges? At Staples where I purchased this printer a complete sex of six which includes 2 blk,lylo,lrd,lbl, costs $50.00 I tried refilling them but to no success. If one color is low, the printer will not print even with the filled black cartridges. I tried printing one picture & it sucked the brains out of the color cartridges. Where to buy refills, please advise. Thanks
Best Answer: I find Office Depot is the best place for getting replacement cartridges. If you bring in your old ones they will give you a $3 coupon for each one. You can use up to 3 of these coupons at once. Wait for a sale and then you can get them for a really good price.
- You can get remanufactured CLI-8 and PGI-5 cartridges in Canada at Inkjet Oasis. These have the chips reset so they’re good to go at about 1/2 the cost of new Canon cartridges.

http://www.eezytrade.co.uk/acatalog/pixm… - Walgreens will refill them for you, good luck finding those for cheap online unless you can wait like three weeks for shipping…..
- I’ve been buying from www.carrotink.com for years, however, I recently had a problem — I think because I installed a couple of Carrotink cartridges along with the existing Epson.
While my printers are under warranty, I buy brand ink. After that, I buy generic – however – next time I will replace all cartridges at the same time and not mix a generic with a brand name.

http://www.cartridgeworldusa.com/ - Yep, can understand your situation. I tried refilling before and it’s messy. Worst I damaged the cartridge and need to get new ones.
However I came across a better option, that is to use recycled or remanufactured ink cartridges. So far they work great and no problem. The main thing is they cost less, much less than the new OEM ones.
You can get these cartridges on line and there are many vendors supplying these cartridges. Go for the ones that gives guarantees with the cartridges. Some of the vendors have buy back, so you can sell them your used ink cartridges and get “new” remanufactured ones.
