The seller was fine. Ink is incredibly overpriced wherever you get it.

Okay, the supplier was fine and the ink works fine. I just have to mention why the ink is around $3,000 a gallon every time I'm asked to review these ink tanks. Do you think I'm wrong? Try math. I right. On the other hand, be warned. Never use non-genuine ink in a printer where replacement heads are expensive. What they put in these tanks is often pure junk that clogs the printheads and wrecks your printer. The only way I would use aftermarket ink is if the heads are part of the reservoirs and have been replaced with a reservoir. So you buy a new OEM tank and you're back in business. The problem is finding a printer that is still built that way. I don't know if you will find it. HP used to make them but may have decided to cash in on the ink hitter. So, finally, why is OEM ink so expensive?
