Non-oem ink cartridges on an Epson R800/R1800?

I've spent the last 2 nights looking for an alternative to Epson replacement cartridges but finally conceded and bought $130 worth of genuine cartridges. Has anyone found a comparable solution that offers some savings for the R1800?

Have a look at Inkrepublic

they are some kind of alternative.
Hope that helps

HP6700 officejet, Can you use non-oem ink cartridges???

Hi, I recently got a new printer last year and I recently purchased some non HP ink cartridges. I changed the color cartridges, the printer recognized the cartridges and went through the install process. Everything looked good. When I go to print, I get an error saying there is non-oem ink cartridges installed. I click on the info button and it tells me that non-oem ink will void the warranty. I am fine with that, I just want to be able to print. Is there any way to get past this or can on only use HP ink in a 6700 officejet printer???
Thanks

Using non OEM Print Cartridges.

I have just fitted non oem ink cartridges in my HP 6520 and they will only display in the ink levels on the printer front panel a question mark and through the printer software on the PC i get an exclamation mark,can this be bypassed or do i have to "guess"? "Genuine"HP Cartridges are so expensive,can anybody help?

You would need to take the issue up with the supplier of the third party cartridges. HP has no way to tell the ink levels if they have not been properly programmed into the ink supplies or if the cartridge has been marked as previously used.

How do I get the "non HP Ink Cartridge" pop up to go away??? HP Photosmart 7520

After my trial ink ran out on the HP Photosmart 7520 I installed a non-hp ink cartridge. It prints fine but EVERY SINGLE TIME I print anything I get a pop up saying I have a non-hp cartridge installed and the quality cannot be guaranteed. It then gives me the option to shop HP online, cancel the print, or click ok to close it. EVERY SINGLE TIME. I print a lot of pages and this is extremely annoying. There is no "do not show this message in the future" option. How can I make this stop popping up????

OK, you're receiving this error because of the non HP cartridge you've installed. This message can be bypassed by selecting OK; it will not go away until you install HP ink. Until then you should be able to print.

Disabling continual Non-HP ink cartridge message

Please help!I can see there have been many others with the same annoying problem, but I can not seem to stop the 'Non-HP Ink cartridge"message coming up on my computer constantly, even when I'm not printing anything! Whenever I am on my computer, the message comes up every 5 seconds. I can't get anything done!I tried unchecking the "Enable bidirectional support" box under "Ports", (as per one of the answers here) but it hasn't worked. I am wondering if I turned my computer off and on again, would that work? I have a HP Pavillion 23 computer.Surely I don't have to unplug my printer every time I'm on my computer and go through this rubbish whenever I need to scan or print something?This is beyond frustrating!Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks.

Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums! I understand that you are getting a continual Non-HP ink message with your HP Photosmart Plus B210 on Windows 8. I am sorry for the frustration but happy to look into this for you. Are you using Genuine HP ink cartridges? Or refilled/Non-HP ink? Please see this guide, Can I Refill The Ink In My HP Ink Cartridge? As well as this guide, Ink Usage in Inkjet Printers. In the meantime, please try the solutions within this guide, HP Photosmart Plus e-All-in-One Printer - B210a support. Also, the HP Print and Scan Doctor, might help as well. Hope this information is helpful, and thank you for posting!

Using non-HP ink cartridges

I have a Photosmart C6180 that uses HP 02 cartridges - black and five colors. My local Walgreen's has a cartridge refill program. I have always used HP cartridges, but what would I give up if I went the non-HP route? Is the ink status gauge about it?

I have been used replacement cartriges from Ebay on my new Photosmart B109n successfully. Removing the chips and transferring them to the Chip-extender is fiddly, and you need to be careful that the Chip-extender is properly seated and hooked into the printer carriage locating aperture - my black cartridge was rejected first time because it must have slipped slightly when the cartridge was locked down, I can see that this must be carefully checked each time one replaces a cartridge otherwise one could damage the chip. Removing the chip with a craft knife is best done starting from the top right (with the gold pads towards you) because you are less likely to damage the printed circuit traces there. Usually the spare adhesive tape will not be required because the existing tape should remain on the chip if you are careful. I assume that eventually the printer will reject the chips after the warranty has expired - 2 years from the date of OEM cartridge manufacture (27/09/2011), according to the Printer Hardware Information page. I suppose then I shall have to buy some cheaper non-XL HP cartridges to get some more chips, unless they become available from another source. Or maybe I could try the PC date reset back a few years then re-set to current date method?

I have a pixma mg 7120. I was wanting to know if anyone had any good recomendations on non oem ink?

I mainly want to use it for photos and I love the way that the canon ink looks on the canon paper its AMAZING!! Are there any oem (non canon, third party, not from orignial manufacture, for the ones that don't know what non-oem means) inks out there that look close to it? I have seen alot of reviews on amazon on inks but just not sure which ones to get or if there was a site that was better quailty out there then those.

Non hp ink cartridges

My ink cartridges for my hp photosmart 6520 lasted a very short time so replaced them with non HP cartridges which were compatible. I get the well reported warnings that I am invalidated my warranty but the main issue is that my iPad will not print to the HP printer as it states that there is no ink. all the cartridges are full and direct printing works fine. I have downloaded the hp printing app but something seems to be stopping the iPad sending the print job to the printer.
could it be that as the cartridges are non Hp it thinks there is no ink and therefore does not send print job.
any help much appreciated

Hi!, DaveB1: The original's cartdridges have a impressed circuit, what store many information, over the printer. If you extract from printer and replace with other non-original, you cann't see the remanent ink and out of warranty.Each cartdrige have date of expired warranty. You must see, if change with other original, this date, in the external case. All cartdridge are 564XL, with the date, of warranty.Please, see ... www.youtube.com/watch?v=9AVba_km2Oc

HP Officejet Pro X476dw ink cartridge failure

I have a new HP Officejet Pro X476dw . It gives me Ink Failure for the four cartridges when I shut it down and turn it on the next day it starts to print but after a while it gives the same message . and so on I check the cartridge when it is working , it is already full of ink .
it is the ink which come with the printer in the shop they told me it shoud print at least 2000 pages using those inks .

@ SMOKEY DOG - I will need a little more information in order to help out. Do you have the same printer as the one listed in the title? Are you using genuine non refilled ink cartridges is the device? Do you have the printer plugged directly into a wall outlet to ensure that it is getting the proper amount of power? If the printer is not getting enough power, that can cause the printer to produce erroneous error messages.

"Non-HP Ink Catridges" warning again and again and again...

Hi,
I have a new HP Photosmart 6520 series printer that I recently installed a non-HP ink cartridge in. I understand that there are risks associated with doing this, and that HP would rather I buy their ink. However, I've chosen to use this ink anyway.
The software on my Windows 7 computer now pops up a warning every time I print saying "HP cannot guarantee the quality or reliability of non-HP supplies" along with a link to the HP shop.
Now that I've read, understood and digested the message, I would like the software to stop warning me every time I try to print.
Is there any way to disable the message, so that it only appears each time I install a new cartridge, say (or even better, never again)? I checked forum queries and searched using the help system provided but couldn't see an answer, but apologies if I missed it.
Kind regards,
David

Photosmart D7460 failure to recognize a "genuine" HP reolacement ink cartridge

I have a Photosmart D7460 and have installed "genuine" HP replacement ink cartridges purchased from Office Depot or Staples continually. All colors - EXCEPT YELLOW - have been 'recognized' by the printer as "genuine". I get the non-HP ink cartridge message every time I turn on the printer. This continues to happen - even after I've replaced that and the other colors a dozen times since that message first appeared.
Does someone know how to inform the printer that it is a genuine HP product and stop the message from appearing?

New ink cartridge problem

My black ink cartridge needed replaced. I put the new one in and when I printed the test sheet it had only black and no color on it. I get a message it cannot be calibrated. I have never got this before. Any suggestions?

Hello , I may be able to help you with the colour printing issue on your Photosmart D110. Usually the calibration the printer wants to complete is the alignment. The alignment page needs all colours and black to complete successfully. When was the last time you replaced your colour ink cartridge? If you believe it does have ink, you could try the steps in Fixing Print Quality Problems for the HP Photosmart e-All-in-One. Please Note: HP recommends that you use genuine HP ink cartridges. HP cannot guarantee the quality or reliability of non-HP ink cartridges or refilled HP ink cartridges. If you do not use genuine HP ink cartridges, the steps in this post might not resolve the issue you experiencing. You could also see how non-HP supplies compare to refilled or remanufactured cartridges from the Buyers Lab Report.
I would also suggest reviewing the Limited Warranty for HP Ink Cartridges and Customer-Replaceable Printheads for HP Inkjet Supplies. Please let me know if any of these steps resolved your issue, or if there is anything else I can do to help. I look forward to hearing from you! Thanks,
