Cartridge Type

	Genuine or OEM (Original) Cartridges	Remanufactured Cartridges	Compatible Cartridges
Description	OEM stands for original equipment manufacturer, meaning the cartridge was made by the same company that made your printer. Original brand cartridges are very reliable and sometimes the only option if your printer is new to market or uncommon.	Remanufactured ink is a genuine brand cartridge that has gone through one cycle of use. After use, the cartridge is recycled, acquired by a remanufacturing facility and put through a rigorous professional refurbishing process. During the refurbishing process the cartridge is disassembled, thoroughly cleaned and tested for quality. It's then carefully refilled, tested again and brought back to life. Buying remanufactured prevents one less cartridge from ending up in a landfill.	A compatible cartridge is a brand new ink cartridge built by a manufacturer other than your printer. It's like buying the generic version of the genuine brand. Most are uniquely designed to differentiate from genuine cartridges. Despite any structural difference you may notice, the cartridge will still fit in your machine and print a full yield, just like the original brand.
Price Factors	Many printer manufacturers follow the razor-and-blades business model which may result in higher priced genuine cartridges.	Remanufactured ink is much cheaper than the original brand ink. It's far more cost effective to refurbish a previously used cartridge than create a new OEM from scratch.	Compatible ink is much cheaper than the original brand. Compatible suppliers don't have to worry about the additional costs that hinder OEMs like new printers or firmware, which lets them keep prices low.
Quality	Original cartridges work extremely well and are covered under a warranty by the printer manufacturer	High quality remanufactured ink will match the quality of the original, but not all remanufactured ink is created equal. Make sure you buy from a reputable supplier in order to get the absolute best results.	High quality compatible ink will match the quality of the original, but not all compatible ink is created equal. Make sure you buy from a reputable supplier in order to get the absolute best results.

What's the difference between ink and toner cartridges?

	Ink Cartridges	Toner Cartridges
Printer Type	Work with inkjet printers	Work with laser printers
Material	Liquid ink	Dry powder
How it works	Inkjet printers use a series of nozzles that spray tiny drops of ink directly on the print suface	Laser toner printers use static electricity and heat to bond dry toner powder to a page
Commonly used by	Casual home users, small business and photographers	Large businesses and schools

Number of Pages You Can Print	A cartridge's page yield is the estimated number of pages you can print. Page yield is based on 5% page coverage. This means that the quoted page yield is based upon printed pages where only 5% of the page has been imprinted with ink. For example, a short memo has approximately 5% coverage. If you have a cartridge that has a yield of 500 pages, it can print 500 pages of that short memo. If you are printing letters, photos or graphics, your coverage will vary greatly and your page yield will drop significantly.
Cartridge Warranty and Shelf Life	Most ink and toner cartridges include a warranty or "best by" date on their box. Remanufactured and compatible ink cartridges can last 12-18 months unopened, and toner cartridges can last up to 3 years.
Cartridge Care and Storage	Only open a cartridge when you need it. Opened cartridges will eventually dry out, especially if the protective tape or clip has been removed. If you have an open ink cartridge around and would like to try and prevent it from drying out, place it nozzle side up in a plastic airtight tub. If your cartridge came with protective tape or a clip reapply both before storing. Place a damp cloth or paper towel in the tub, next to the cartridge and keep it stored in a cool, dark place.

Compatible Lexmark 100XL 4 Piece Set of Inks
Q:
I have a Lexmark S305 All-in-One printer and purchased the 4 bulk pack from you a while ago. When I load the new color cartridges in, the ink levels only show that they are about 1/2 full. How do I fix that or are the color cartridges only 1/2 full? If they are only 1/2 full - how do I get them replaced for full ones ??

Lexmark Pro 205 repalcement black ink cartridge

Terrible product. I was hoping that I'd found a replacement for the ridiculously priced Lexmark XL100 cartridges. But the print quality is very bad. Blurred lines on grids, print test (cyan, pink, yellow, black bars on a page# just prints black steaks across the page. I will be calling customer service as soon as I have the time. Too bad. I was hoping I'd found a better deal.
See the attached screenshot, the cyan, pink, and yellow bars are from Lexmark cartridges. The black bar (attempt at a bar) is the LD cartridge.

The cartridges fit my printer just fine. Printing in black ink is OK. Printing in colors is iffy right now, I guess I'll have to play with the settings to get the new cartridges to work better. Otherwise, I'm happy with my purchase.

A Very Dissapointed Customer with your Ink Cartridges!

By Johnny

Comments about Lexmark Compatible #100XL Black Inkjet Cartridge:

You guys should send FREE replacements whenever your product does not do what it is suppose to do. I have ordered your Ink cartridges and the very first one I received work for about a month. I do not print everyday maybe 10 sheets a month. So I would think the ink should last several months but it does not. This makes about 4 cartridges I have purchased from your company and they do not seem to give me the service that I am looking for. Do you have any Ink cartridges that will hold up and not dry up so fast that I will be happy with as long as the price is not to high in price and out of my budget area? If so, please send me an e-mail, so that I can check it out on your website.

Thanks!
