Great Savings

Have used Ink Express bulk refills for years and they are excellent value for money and much cheaper than branded inks.

I was going to purchase a new printer…

I was going to purchase a new printer with a eco tank as I was fed up being ripped off with very expensive ink cartridges when I came across Ink Express. One reasonable payment the kit comes complete with refillable cartridges, ink, syringes etc to fill and replace the old cartridges. Now all I have to do is purchase the ink which I will from Ink Express. So much cheaper and a very efficient survice. Highly recommend.

Reusable (or not so) cartridges

Only purchased from ink express once for reusable ink cartridges and ink.

The reusable cartridges have only lasted 3 years and, for the amount of ink I have used, they really have not been economical.

Right from the start, one part on each cartridge was incorrectly fitted.
Each chip on the side (used by the printer to calculate ink usage) was mounted upside down!

I requested a return but as I had filled them with ink, a return was apparently not possible under the warranty.

Almost without exception before each print I need to take at least one cartridge out and pop it back in as suggested by ink express.

All in all a bit of a faff. Once bitten twice shy.

Moral of the story might be to buy original ink or elsewhere?

We’re sorry to hear that you are not satisfied with the refillable ink cartridges. Unfortunately, as our return policy states, we are unable to accept returns after three years.

If there’s anything else we can assist you with or any questions you have, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re here to help!
