If available there you can try "Office Centre" and Office Depot" as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevc Posted April 5, 2009 Author Share Posted April 5, 2009 [ Your location says Buriram. If available there you can try "Office Centre" and Office Depot" as well. Hi, I'm going to be in Bangkok next week so I thought I'd try Pantip or Fortune Town, I tried last year but no one done them thought maybe there might be able to by now. The other option is to bin the Lexmark and buy a Brother or similar as a complete set of inks is around 2,000 baht and a new Brother only costs 2,500 with the extra large refillable tanks costing 1000 baht a set including ink.

Went around Bangkok yesterday no one sells compatables or can refill the cartridges for the X3550 (no's 23 & 24) faced with paying another 1600 baht I cut my losses and bought a Brother and the extra large refillable cartridges for an extra 1,000 baht including 4 bottles of ink. still the Lexmark will make a nice little table to stand my beer bottle on.

You've probably hit the nail on the head there... The best thing to do with a Lexmark is find an alternative use for it. I had one a few years ago and did exactly the same as you in the end. They virtually give the printers away but the ink costs a fortune meaning you end up restricting your own printing or spending a fortune... Perhaps you could rip out all pof the internals, line it with plastic and use it as an expensive high-tech ice bucket! Any better ideas? Good advice for anyone: DON'T BUY LEXMARK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
