Toner Cartridge Refill

I just bought a HP 3030 and I am about to place my first order from tonerkits.com. The refill kit is only 6.99 , the 10 case refill is $ 64.90. Does this mean I will be able to refill cartridges 10 times?. If the answer is affirmative.. what a great deal !!. Also, I was wondering if I really need to buy the universal tool or hole maker at 9.99. Thank you for your time!

Yes, you will be able to refill a cartridge ten times, but not the same one.

Most cartridges get 3-5 charges.

YES, by all means do purchase the hole maker at $9.99.

I recharge my cartridges and think it is the greatest thing since sliced bread.

I also use tonerkits.com. Love them!

Excuse me for not getting this but why can't you refill a cartridge more than 3 or 4 times?

My experience is that they wear out.

Why it might wear out.

I was told that the HP models have thier drum in the cartridge. This would explain why it wears out.

Brenda is 100% correct. Only thing I'd add is: ALWAYS have a brand new one on hand.
