I always use 'catridge people' online either for genuine cartridges or remanufactured ones which are better value and have more contents :happy2:

Refills are not worth the money. I saw a TV programme (Gadget Show maybe?) where they did accelerated sunlight tests on photo prints and the aftermarket cartridges faded really quickly. They left 2 prints under a sun lamp and after 24 hours the HP cartridge print was still a photo and the refill one was a white piece of paper again!

Correct ^^^^^^

If your near a Wilkinsons, they sell the 'combo' 350 and 351 cheaper than anywhere else I've found.

I use Epson printers and 3rd party refills are fine if like me you print 100+ sheets per day, we only print website orders or paypal invoices and once picked n packed we file them (I.E> we don't leave them in the sun) and we hold them for 3 years (Accounts) and after 3 years the print is still fine.

If your printing Photos or materials you need to keep in direct sunlight for a long time maybe best to get OEM, otherwise 3rd party is fine.

I use 2 types of cartridges and they have 50% more ink than OEM and they only cost 95p each (including shipping) rather than £8 each for OEM.
