genuine inks or cheepies from ebay
most cartridges are chipped so could be dodgy chips my tesco ones sometime fail to recognize then other times they work. three months old now the inks |

This is common with refilled or non-OEM carts. See if this link is any good...

We've got a lexmark 3 in 1 at the mo. Non manf carts cause all sorts of erratic problems. No idea why. Std Lexmark branded carts no problems apart from buying the damned things

TBH you're just as well off printing your colour pics at Tescos and getting a cheap laser for B&W stuff......

I have 2 epson printers for A3 and A4 jobs photos etc. and a brother laser for the b&w stuff. Always use 7dayshop.com inks and never been a problem.
Epson £9 to £18 depending on model. 7dayshop.com 87p to 99p no contest
