laserjet- ink cartridges

[quanttrade99z]

Hey fellahs-

Have you guys ever used those remanufactured ink cartidges for laser printers.

I have an HP Laserjet 1200 series. I hate to waste $$$...would buy remanufactured ink cartridges and save money...but I'm worries that maybe they are no good. Have you guys tried them? Know any good websites to buy them?

Thanks!

Laserjets don't use ink cartridges. They use toner cartridges. And, yes, I have used the remanufactured ones. In many cases they are superior to the originals because they usually replace the fuser roller with a better ceramic one.

I am only using re-conditioned laser toner cartridges. No problems since over a year and more than 10k+pages.

Sometimes you will get remanufacturer cartridges that give very slight imperfections on a printed page. Of course, this can happen with a brand new cartridge from the print maker but I don't think it will occur quite as often with the manufacturer's cartridges. You are taking a chance either way.

But for instance, a remanufactured cartridge which I recently purchased for $30 cost over $90 from HP. At 1/3 the price, I would say it is worth the gamble. In any case you could "possibly" return the remanufactered cartridge if it is defective.

Any idea where to find instructions on how to replace/clean the fuser on this printer?

LOL! QFT! You need to understand a bit more about printers before you do anything BUT have a professional replace your toner
