Re: Alternative to ordering from Dell

I am wondering if anyone has purchased a laser cartridge from an online site for a Dell laser printer. After checking out other sites the Dell, there is a savings of over $30 from various online ink sources. I think I will try it one time and see if the savings is worth it, I would appreciate any comments. Thanks in advance.

JMO but I was told that dell's lasers are very inexpensive

and also for the supplies.... but I was also told that their laser printers are not that reliable....

I have had this printer for over 2 years with no problems at all. Dell charges $100 for the toner cartridge, I just ordered one from 4inkjets.com for $60. I am curious to see what the difference is. Hopefully none!

What model is your printer, ms? I have Dell 1700, it cost me $20 to refill and change the chip.

Yes, lovetoner.com

my toner from dell is $189, lovetoner.com is only $79, but you loose the toner low indicator on screen when you use it. Also, lovetoner always seems to forget my order and I have to remind them. I've not had any quality issues with it.

My dell printer 5200nt absolutely is horrible, and I'm getting an HP soon, what kind of Dell printer do you have?

I have a Dell 1600n MFP. I bought a genuine dell toner cartridge from Ebay (InternetWarehouse??) for about $40 less than dell. You mentioned "ink" are you using an inkjet printer for loan docs?
