If supply is out, please replace required cartridge with new one. The supply may be out, refilled or non-HP. I could easily keep printing for a month after the utility application would insist that I change them because of low ink levels. The computer readings about ink levels were never accurate anyway. Original HP Ink Depleted – Information about ink levels will not be available. The warning on the HP utility application was even worse. The printer was already out of warranty, so I wasn’t worried about voiding my warranty, but I was kind of offended that HP thinks they get to tell me what I can do with my printer after I buy it. Replace Cartridge(s) or press OK to continue. Now that the printer believes that the ink jet cartridges are empty, I have gotten rather threatening warnings on the little printer screen.ĪTTENTION: Printer service or repairs required as a result of using a non-HP supply will not be covered under warranty. The HP ink was never water resistant and neither is this replacement ink, so I’m just as “happy” with my inkjet printer with the refill ink as I was with the original ink cartridges. I inject the ink into the cartridges and the printouts I had were just as beautiful as the ones with the HP ink. I used the Inktec Refill Kit that I found at with some syringe needles. I’ve done this on my HP Printer and it has worked rather well. Here is a video showing you how to do it. You can refill the ink in the cartridges you already own. Of course, there are options for people who want to enjoy their ink jet printers without shelling out the big bucks for the cartridges. I’ve even heard that they sell the printers at a loss in order to “get you hooked” on their ink.

It’s commonly known that printer manufacturers make money from selling ink cartridges, not from making the printers.
