Are remanufactured inkjet cartridges any good?

Refurbished or refilled ink cartridges generally work well, but often they contain a small circuit to tell the printer how much ink has gone through. After those cartridges are refilled, the printer software will tell you that the cartridge is empty. This is an attempt by the manufacturer to KEEP you from refilling the cartridge, since some of the "features" of the printer will no longer work. Inkjet printers are cheap to purchase, but the ink is so expensive that you might find a better printing option by purchasing a laser printer.

Where can I get ink cartridge refills online?

First check with the brand of printer you use. I know with Lexmark and HP you can not refill your own cartridges because the printer will tell you it is empty and not read a new cartridge number and shut down not allowing you to print. I buy already refilled Lexmark ink from the manufacture it is a few dollars less and I recycle my old cartridges with the company. If you own an older printer you can buy ink refilling kit on eBay or Amazon even inkjet.com and you can refill your old ones and use them over and over again. You will just have to check with the brand of printer. I use to refill my old ones with a Canon printer.
