Where to cheaply replace HP 56 (C6656a) cartridge?

[tariq.1.rahim]

Probably an old question here. I have a PSC 1200.

I bridle at the prices HP charges.

Is there a brick-mortar chain or a reliable website where I can get a
remanufactured or off-brand black cartridge? I have googled and have
found it priced at $13.25 + $3.75 shipping. Wonder if somewhere is
better or if I can hit a chain in person, thus eliminating shipping.

Thanks.

These guys just sold me the photo colour cart refills for virtually nothing

You really do have to learn how to refill that cartridge: It is
exceptionally easy and buying ink in bulk makes a lot of sense if you get
the refilling right when the ink supply is quite that tiny. (See other
threads here for doing this)

i took a path of less resistance and bought a single remanufactured
cartridge at staples.

it will take me a long time to use it up. i print seldom.
