They also have a booth by one of the entrances (from car park) to Big C Extra (ex-Carrefour) on Pattaya Klang.

"where to but cheap or refilled printer cartridges in Pattaya"

There are at least 50 stores that refill cartridges in Tukcom. Surprised anyone could be here more than a week and not find them.

If you're using your printer for business then you might want to consider a continuous feed ink system. They are readily available at Tukom

Definitely worth looking into if you do a lot of printing. Not all brands/models can be fitted with tanks though.

One advantage of the booming trade in tank-fitting is that the unused cartridges from new printers that have been fitted with tanks at the time of purchase are often available at a big discount from the tank-fitters. They dont come in proper retail boxes though, and dont always contain the full amount of ink ("starter" cartridges).

Yes I would buy a printer with the system already fitted. As stated, not all printers work well with this kind of system. Epson for sure does since the print head is permanent in the printer and not part of the ink carts. HP on the other hand has the print head as part of the disposable carts so they were never meant to be used forever but rather thrown away when the ink runs out.

Indeed. Epson actually do one ore two models that are factory-fitted with tanks. These can be found in the big stores in Tukcom.

Or, if color is not required, check on laser...costs came down a lot, cheaper per page cost (although inkjet with tanks probably even cheaper).

Mainly like the hassle free operation of them, very long cartridge life, no clogged printheads if left unused for a while etc...

Yes.. HP makes lovely laser printers. The costs of a toner cartridge are high (think they might be refillable as well) but the benefits of laser printers vs inkjets are great. For my business that primarily used the printer to print out invoices, a laser printer was the only way to go. You never have to worry about smearing or water ruining the printed material and the speed of a laser printer is much faster than inkjet.

Indeed. I have only had lasers for years.

If you get a colour laser from samsung, it is possible to tweak them and buy toner bottles en bulk and you get really cheap non fading prints

Laser/Led printer have kill-chips in their toner cartridges., they work like a countdown counter, if it reaches zero the printer will stop working. So if you refill old school style you have to get new kill-chips as well.

Samsung printers can be modified, a small module will be soldered into the printer, so the printer always thinks the cartridges are full and you don’t have to get chips.

Toner itself is pretty cheap, if you buy the big 1kg bottles

The fix i works only for certain samsung printers, if you find a samsung printer you like, than check with a place like power print ( Tuk com /3 fl.) if they can patch it

Worth mentioning that for other brands/models it is usually possible to do a part-exchange for a refilled and re-chipped toner cart (they are remanufactured in China, I think).

on my day off today stumbled across tuk com, brought a refill kit for the HP 250 B, cheaper than the 1100 B tesco want for both the colour and b&w carts refilled and printing ok

when in tesco looking at the carts today saw the same printer is on sale for 900 B refill carts work out at 1100B crazy
