Printer ink options

[Mudball]

We have a HP Color Laserjet Pro MFP M281fdw... .. Given the amount of printing that happens for school work, the ink is running low. So looking to order HP 203A colour cartridges. First view of HP cartridge cost is >£250 (I think i got it for some £150 for the printer at that time). It is a bit of Gillette pricing.

Any recommendations on options to get decently priced ones. I cant get a refill as shops are closed. What are the brands of compatibles that i need to avoid

I buy Canon compatible ones on Amazon & they're perfect, never had a problem with them. https://www.amazon.co.uk/stores/nod...owse-bin=Go Inks&ref_=bl_dp_s_web_19345539031

hmm, i like amazon because u can order it online, buy did u tried usual technical shops? Oh, this is a really common problem for printer owners. A couple of days ago, I realized that I was completely out of color cartridges. I usually buy a few extras, but this time it didn't help. I didn't know what to do because I couldn't go to Walmart because of the COVID-19. My sister told me about this site https://www.mrdepot.ca and I found a lot of different cartridges at low prices. I bought new cartridges and I am 100% happy with it. Take a quick view on this site, if u will have time!

I have the exact same model and use these from Amazon

You get an authenticity error but they work fine and for general business printing they are spot on.
I did buy genuine HP toners first time round but at £280 they can ram it.

Yup, Amazon or try Viking Direct, they do all office supplies.

I have no idea of the cost but have you looked at (or if it is for inkjet inks only)

M281fdw is a colour laser jet so needs toner cartridges.

We use Stinkyink. Terrible name. Good service and cheap prices.

Be wary of signing up to HP Instant Ink. We did without really understanding hoe it worked and ended up paying a packet for no ink as you get ink as you print - if for any reason you cut back or stop needing to print - you still have to pay - but nothing being printed means no ink sent.

Saves us a fortune as the lad uses a lot for his homework.

We were the opposite - our lad basically went paperless - but we had him signed up. ?

I am on my 3rd set of Amazon cheapies and had my first misprint in over 3000 pages (both wife and I WFH plus son printing homework etc). Simply took the Cyan out, gave it a wipe and a shake and all good again. Saved hundreds compared to the HP ones. Total rip off.
