I wish it would work better!

I had my doubts about getting a remanufactured printhead for my HP but read good reviews; my fault! Received and installed very quickly. After installation, my printer kept trying to align and failing! My copies had streaks and looked very unprofessional for the prints I needed. I wrote to the company and they responded very quickly and gave me some corrections for the print quality! It got a little better, but they never lined up and I had to open and close the cartridge door just to start printing; how painful! I have used multiple ink cartridges only because they kept printing alignment sheets and failed! I would use a cartridge in a month and a half, over 6 months with normal use! It cost me time, quality, money and frustration! I ended up breaking down and paying big bucks to get an official HP printhead! Now I have good prints, everything is aligned and I can type safely! I would save money by just buying HP and not paying for all the extra ink! I really want this to work!
