Anyone know of an Inkjet refill seller, who sells inks, *ACTUALLY* made to
the same specs of the inks as the original manufacture? I have used various
inks before for Canon (which would build up and still clog printheads), and
Lexmark , (same result, after a few refills - which worked perfectly - would
eventually clog up). And after a head cleaning or two, got back to full
functionality. On a side note, the "Lexmark" black never prints like an
original Lexmark black. It leaves too much loose, non dried ink, on the
paper, under the same print settings and paper.

I have an HP 5550 I use for full photo. And see refills, but dont want to
clog my photo printer.
My workhorses - no prob.

To make to the OEM specs would not be practical or even legal. What
3rd party vendors do is try and match the **behavior** of the OEM ink.

Second the other post recommending MIS (inksupply)

"Atlantic Inkjet" says its ink is made to OEM specs. I've been using
their refills for over a year and have had no problems at all. My
printing is about 40% photo. (My original Black Cart is on its 9th
refill and my colour on No. 7. I rotate them with two replacement
carts.)

For several years, I've been impressed with Arkansas Anna Wells and
her http://www.ink-etc.com/ for cartridges and refill kits and bulk
inks.

They know that inks must be matched to the specific cartridge and do
a good job and I find them very honest.
