Oh yeah, forgot the earlier post about Sam's. I know what you mean about the messy refill kits too. I was doing mine outside with rubber gloves on my old Canon. Got a new Epson recently and the kit is light years ahead, haven't spilled a drop yet.
I'm having hell over here. After buying printer cartridges I discovered that the problem wasn't lack of ink, but a broken printer. I got a little upset and gently placed the damned thing in the trash can.
I'm not a "shopper" by nature, so I always go to Office Depot for this sort of thing. The kids there know me as an impatient impulse buyer and they always accommodate accordingly (I love them). I exited the store about 3 minutes after entering it with a new HP 9110.
This one machine supposedly handles color printing, color scanning, color copying, color faxing, and direct printing from a memory card. Super. I've been at it for several hours, and I haven't even managed to set the clock. This SOB has 4 cartridges (black, cyan??, magenta??, yellow) that apparently have to be set in place with surgical precision.
I know zilch about printers, especially ones that'll do everything except toast bread. I wish I could buy something that was fast and that didn't require me to constantly replace these satanic little ink cartridges. Any suggestions are welcome.
Sorry this is so long winded. I needed to let off a little steam.

LOL !!! I finally gave up on HP and now buy Lexmark garbage at 30 bucks a pop. I can "shot put" them to the dumpster and save myself a lot of grief.
But if anyone has a better idea, please keep this old Grandpa in mind.
