I have just put a X2350 printer on hold to pick up tomorrow. It was only
£29.99, so for an all-in-one that's pretty good and it has good write-ups.

Anyway, my question is, I have quite a few new replacement ink bottles which
i used to use for my old (now broken !) Canon printer. So what i was
wondering is if the X2350's ink tank is capable of being re-filled by the
user. I know it's an all-in-one cartridge (doesn't need black ink). I don't
want the ink to go to waste as i only got it a month ago.

Is the cartridge chipped in any way (like the Epson's) ?, can a small hole
be punctured into the Lexmark inktank for me to syringe ink into ?

I know people like PC World say you musn't refill your own printers (quality
or something !), but i have NEVER had any problems this way and i've been
re-filling my own ink for 8 years now.

Andrew

Chances are it could be chipped. That said, itis not really a good idea
to use Canon compatible ink in it. I suppose you could, at the possible
expense of the head, which is disposable anyway.
 
The ink is not JUST Canon compatible - it is "universal ink", so it should
be okay. Are the cartridges definitely chipped then ??

Universal ink is a bad thing, generally. Good refill ink is formulated fot
your cart/head/printer technology or whatever. If you want to take the
chance with it, go ahead.

OH YEAR THE GOOD REFILL INK WILL CLOG A SPECIFIC PRINTHEAD INSTEAD OF
ALL OF THEM
 
SINCE YOU BOUGHT A PIECE OF JUNK ANYWAY I WOULD GO A HEAD AND USE THE
CRAP INK. IT IS NOT WORTH ANY MORE.

Eskay, meashershithead is our very own resident troll and a moron who
also happens to be a complete idiot and is also a pathological liar.
He is full of shit, knows absolutely nothing about printers, ink or paper.
Best to kill file his stupid moronic ass and be done with him.
Happy New Year!

Congratulations Andrew you just handed over that "best regards" to one of
Measekite's several aliases, "Frank". Francis is his real name and he
enjoys playing both sides with unsuspecting posters. Be very aware on the
Net.
