Is the cartridge refillable? Toner cartridges are $$ and I've refilled before, but this one says all 4 are in one cart.I only want to refill black.

The color and black toner cartridges are separate. I have not personally refilled them (printer just came out last summer, still have toner) but I can confirm that they are separate.

It's more like a slide-out drawer which holds 4 separate, removable cartridges. I have never refilled a laser cartridge but it's probably possible. This printer is using much less than my Brother laser printer, which would spill toner, even using their cartridges.

I have one now, have owned one before this... it prints in full color. Check the 4 refill cartridges to see the toner colors.

Yes, the cartridge is refillable. You need to drill a hole on the cartridge follow the instructions in the pack. It is a little difficult to do that. And I recommend that you to drill the hole a little larger so that it would be easier for you to inject ink into the cartridge without overflowing.

I'm sorry . I am only using it for the Artisan 800 which works great. The cartridges were so inexpensive I am not considering refilling. Try to purchase small amount. Sorry

It refilled my toner one time. There was a little bit of mess and wasted toner when it flew all over the place rather than going into the cartridge, but not a whole lot, only a slightly fraction of the contents was wasted. I don't think you'll get multiple refills unless you're only adding a little bit at a time.

Yes. It comes with 3 color and one black toner cartridges. However, if you use a lot, you may get additional set of cartridges. At that time, you have a choice of genuine ones from Canon or compatible ones. The latter works OK but colors on prints are somewhat different between genuine and compatibles.

They are not refillable. I did have refillable ink cartridges and they are a mess. I prefer these.

thanks for the quick response. could you post the link of where to learn about taping the cartridges or suggest what to google. My lexmark requires a computer chip to be replaced to refill the toner. Each chip is $20 which bumps up the refill cost to close to $250. That's almost what I paid for it. I love my old Brother B&W; MFC and have had good luck with it. So I'm looking to combine the Lexmark and old brother MFC. I'm almost sold on this unit. Just don't want to end up in the same situation as my lexmark. thanks again & enjoy the new printer!

It comes with a refillable cartridge which works best with black ink. This way is a little more messy. You can use that or per filled cartridges.

Of course you can refill HP original cartridges as well as those you get from'refill' vendors. The printer will show a message to try to shame you to buy OE carts. Just press OK.

You can refill the cartridges, I've done it before. You just need to be sure to buy the refill ink and chip that goes on the cartridge

Hi Sharon,I've bought 3 of these kits with 4 each refills. I think the toner will probably cover more than 4,000 copies, but the chips that come with it only allow you to get 4,000 per refill. You could probably do a partial refill, but will have to get replacement chips. Refilling is pretty easy, but can be messy - so you may want to do it outside. I've saved a ton of money with these though and haven't had any toner quality problems. Would definitely buy again.

Toner carts are individual. The printer will continue printing even when the carts are 'empty' if you acknowledge the periodical nag messages. My experience has been that the carts show empty long before they are completely dry.

it's ink & for my purpose of just refilling printheads, I didn't question it. I have not tried to refill cartridges, & I know the HP Printers are set up to be sensitive to 'tampering" so you can continue to purchase HP cartridges. Sorry, can't help you in that area.

Yes, it is for one cartridge only because the grey color does not come in the pack and the printer won't work without the grey cartridge unfortunatly. I even tried to put a black cartridge in to the empty spot but the printer would not work. That's why I paid for one cartridge only. I hope that helps you, Deborah. :-)

No. I've used V4Ink and Monoprice cartridges and they just dump toner all over the page. I'm just going to buy a new printer since it's cheaper than buying new (though higher capacity) toner cartridges. I really wish printer companies would stop this silly "starter toner" BS and just sell printers with regular cartridges.
