In many instances, not using genuine brand ink will void the warranty on your printer. Other than that, generic ink is not the same quality as genuine ink. Off brand inks are 33 times more likely to fail than the original inks, and at times can even ruin your printer (users often report off-brand inks dripping inside the printer, or at times the printers may not even recognize the cartridge).\n\nIn the long run, it's cheaper to stay with the original manufacturer's ink. Although, many see the prices of ink as high, part of owning and using a printer is purchasing ink. We all own cars and hate the price of gas. But it's part of owning and driving a car. The only real solution is finding a car (or printer) that is economical on gas (or ink).

If you post back with the make and model of the printer , myself or someone else can post back with a more specific url, that or you could always call the printer manufacturers number and talk to them.\n\nBut finding out there website(s) isnt that hard unless they are non existant or something.\n\nHopefully that helps, if you have a hard time finding the drivers just go to www.driverguide.com\n\nregistration is free and easy :)

heh, that is kind of funny.  You have a tracking problem.  it will require service to fix it.  If it still prints put up with it until it is time to replace the cartridges, then replace the printer.   For the Price of a new set of Dell cartridges you can get a nice little HP printer.

Don't get caught up in the printer maker misinformation that you can only use cartridges made my Lexmark, or Epson, HP, etc., etc., etc.\n\nI have 3 Epson printers and have been using 2nd source cartridges for several years with no problems or issues.  They are brand new cartridges, not refilled, and heres the price difference for my cartridges.  And yes, the brochure that came with the Epson printers said I absolutely needed to use the Epson cartridges because.....yadda, yadda, yadda.\n\nEpson or Staples   Black + Color Cartridge     $54\n\nimarketcity    Black + Color Cartridge               $3.50\n\nYep that's right $3.50 for a pair.  \n\nGive it a try.  I think you'll be happy with the results you realize.\n\nhttp://www.imarketcity.com\n\nHope this helps.

To get your printer to work you should just need to download and install the driver from the manufacturers website. If your printer is still under warranty they should help you reinstall your printer drivers.\n\n1. Goto http://support.dell.com click on printers -> Dell Printers\n2. Under "printer troubleshooting" click on "Drivers and Downloads"\n3. Select your model of printer from the Product model and download drivers for XP. ** Remember where you downloaded them to and what the file is called. **\n4. ** UNPlug your printer from the computer.\n5. Check in Start, Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs that there is not a listing for your dell printer, if there is uninstall it.\n6. Check in Start, Control Panel, Printers if your printer is already setup. If it it right click on it and delete the printer. \n5. Install the drivers by double clicking the file your downloaded. It should go thru an install program. Do not plug in your printer until it tells you. It might do this after the computer restarts.\n\nOnce everything is done and you have plugged in your printer check in Start, Control Panel, Printers and verify your printer is listed.

I have heard that the office supply store, Staples, produces high quality ink that is comparable to the printer's manufacturers ink. \n\nI found an article that points out Staples will be providing ink for Dell printers. Plus they offer some sort of in-store recycling program. Sorry couldn't find any comparisons online.

Check out \nPrintpal.com\n123ink.com\n\nI've found really decent priced inks there.

Some print cartridges have an embedded chip that communicates with the printer to advise ink levels. When you buy from aftermarket suppliers (especially refillers) they may not support these.

Yes - its like a different keyboard (HP), mouse (Compaq), printer (Lexmark), scanner (DEll) etc - all different brands - but all follow the same standards

With Hp and Lexmark cartridges the can be re-manufactured, however with epsons there is really no point due to the lack of print head.  Ink tanks are really cheap to manufacture so nobody really re-manufactures them.\n\nThere are plenty of charities that will take them off your hands, you may not get any cash for them.  However, you do get a little bit of a moral glow, and the satisfaction of knowing they aren't going to end up in a landfill.
