Yep! Their replacement packs come with everything you need... including syringes for no-spill refills. Here's the page that I use for my printer:

That's cool. I remember my wife bought a Brother printer back in the day. It was a decent printer but some time down the road, she bought some refill kits from Office Depot. Disaster promptly ensued as she tried to refill them.
Ink was all over the place, inside and out.She'd gotten a couple of good years out of it and she saw that Wal Mart still carried that model so she bought another one, boxed up the old one and took it back for a return.
That was when I bought the first HP.
If you don't print more than 15 sheets of paper a month get an canon and sign up for the free ink refill program,shit I paid 19 bucks for the printer and I'm good.
I don't print out much and buying the refill ink kit is a waste of time and money.....less than 15 sheets a month and free ink,just what I needed.
Now if you need a fax and all of that shit,go with what's recommended.

Only a handful of comments but the up to down ration is all about his presentation style.
You just know his wife is white.
Lots of questions in the comment section about how to do this and that. Hmmm.
I do like the look of it though.

I've been using HP products for years...hell, for decades now but I need a hack for these muhfuckin' cartridges or a brand that will print plain text when the fuckin' magenta is depleted!
There was a time, like back when pay phones were still a thing on most corners, I used to go to Kinko's or other joints to FAX paperwork. As time went on, that became inconvenient to go somewhere to pay for a FAX to be sent.
I had a dedicated landline installed at home and bought the HP OfficeJet 6400.
It was a nice printer, packed with features and performed very well. You could even buy competing ink cartridges for it instead of HP's pricier ink. The ONLY issue with it was having a tether it to the computer.
As soon as the HP 6500 series came out, I jumped on it.
It was wireless, so that created space. I could take it off of my desk and put it on its own little makeshift station closer to the phone jack. With THIS model, if any of the color cartridges were depleted, you could still print black so I could still print documents. It would annoy the fuck out of you with reminders, but it would print nonetheless.
They had also modified the cartridges from the 6400 too so generic ink was not as much of an option anymore...ink is how they make their money anyway.
Later on, I was on the move a lot for the Army, so I bought the 8600 for my wife to use at home and took the 6500 with me.
With this printer, as soon as you run out of one color of ink, that's a wrap.I've had this thing since 2011 or 12. It has all of the features of the previous printers that I've had from HP, but this is expandable for use in a Small Business setting, etc.
On numerous occasions, I couldn't print a document for work or coursework or whatever because the Cyan was empty. I fucked with the thing for a couple of days trying to trick it into printing plain text documents, to no avail.I went to buy the muhfuckin Cyan, installed it and...another color HAS to be replaced before printing can resume.
I went back to the store and bought the next color, installed it. Good to go! Nope...wrong again! I had to replace all three of them muhfuckas to print a fucking Word doc. Needless to say, I was irate.
Looking at the indicator on the printer and the laptop showed that only the first color was "completely" out of ink but as soon as you replace one, HP has you by the balls. "Nah neggu, go get another one. In fact, get all three of 'em." These muhfuckas!They're like Debo askin', "What chu got on my ink cartridges?"
I'm convinced that there's a page counter on the chip of the cartridges. When you shake them, there's still ink in them and you HAVE to use HP cartridges. It's programmed into the hardware to detect their own shit.
Anyway, does anybody have other brands that don't pull this bullshit on the consumer? I replaced two cartridges last month and I can't print a damn Word doc yet again.
I run with a Brother Monochrome Laser printer. I gave up on HP because the ink prices don't make any damn sense. And fuck inkjet.
I just looked them up right quick. The prices aren't bad at all.
Any of the Epson Eco-Tank Printers!
I want to get one of these but I'm going to wait for the second or third generation. Reviews are mixed right now, but I think Epson will act on the feedback and make improvements. One of my favorite printers was an Epson all in 1, partly because the scanner was so easy to use. I have an HP my lil nephew gave me, and the scanner sucks for multiple images.
