refill of printer cartridges

With cartridges costing $80 for my printer (minolta 1250) and a production of 2500 pg/cartridge, I am considering a printer where I can refill easily. It was mentioned in previous threads that the HP cartridges can be refilled 3-4 times. If true, I can recoup the new printer costs in a very short time.
My cartridge costs is about $.03 per page. How does the HP cost per page work out with refilling your own cartidges?

There are two places that you can obtain quality toner to refill your ep cartridge. To see if some exist for your printer check out www.tonerrefillkits.com.

Is your Printer a Minolta PagePro 1250 E go here: http://www.tonerrefillkits.com/refill_products043.htm?Minolta_PAGEPRO_1250_E

Minolta PagePro 1250 W go here:
http://www.tonerrefillkits.com/refill_products043.htm?Minolta_PAGEPRO_1250_W

Looks like they use the same cartridge.

Tonerrefillkits is where you can buy the "tool kit" in order to refill your cartridge. This company provides excellent instructions on how to refill your cartridge.

Many find that www.tonerkits.com sells the toner cheaper than www.tonerrefillkits.com; but you want to get the tool from www.tonerrefillkits.com first.

Here's your printer from www.tonerkits.com http://www.tonerkits.com/sp302-6.html

Good Luck. I refill my HP 1200 cartridges, very easily. Very economical too!
