I've always been using off brand names and most of them work just as well and r half the price...

I always stick to brand ink/toner and my all in one canon ink-jet has been serving me well for over 5 years (not sure how common that is). I've found brand inks and toner bet. 30-50 % cheaper on ebay and Amazon marketplace which is where I by them.

Buy a quart of generic toner and refill for a small fraction of the cost of brand name.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Are you using inkjet or toner?

There are major quality and capacity differences  between between the non-OEM toners. Buying from eBay leaves you to risk of leaking underfilled toners so its really up to you.

while there might be some kits out there that let you do this. I would advise against this for laser printers. the toner isnt a liquid so it gets all over the place. databazaar has consistently good prices.

I have also found amazon to have the best prices many times. Our office has bought from ebay many times as well and it has always been good for us.

Just a warning to everyone about using generic ink: I had my Canon MP390 Multifunction since mid 2005 and never had a problem while using canon brand ink. Recently after seeing the price of the ink keep going up I decided to buy generic on eBay from a top rated seller. Well, last week the ink cart jammed and after spending 4 hours using every fix I can find, I'm on my way to buy a new multifunction.

No personal experience with Color Laser printers, but I see B&H has theHP CP1215 Color LaserJet Printer for 154.99 which seems like a very good price for a color laser. No doubt you'll save a tone in ink costs with any laser printer over inkjet.
