About this tag
Discussions about printer cartridges on WindowsForum.com cover a range of issues including color printing problems, high costs of OEM ink and toner, ink consumption in low-use printers, and compatibility of third-party cartridges. Users seek solutions for HP and Epson printers, such as Microsoft utilities for color printing fixes, cheaper alternatives like refills or laser printers, and advice on whether non-OEM cartridges are reliable. Technical topics also include RDX cartridge recognition issues in Windows 7 and Vista, with a Microsoft hotfix available. While most threads focus on inkjet and toner cartridges, one off-topic post discusses 8-track tapes.

    HP #62 Blk Ink Cartridge XL

    I just noticed a price increase on HP #62 Blk XL ink cartridge from $35.00 and change to $37.99. That was outragious before the increase. Does anyone have a solution for a cheaper way to make copies? I used to be able to refill the cartridges but it seems that the refills are not available anymore.

    Windows 7 Epson printer using lots of ink

    Couldn't find a good spot for this so I'll ask here... I have an Epson XP800 inkjet that I bought a few years ago and barely use, maybe 20 pages a year. But that doesn't stop the ink from going away. It's so annoying. Is this normal? Should I move to laser for low volume printing without the...
