I'm on my 3rd or 4th refill in my color cartridge and I am beginning to experience some problems. But up until this point I've had decent success with the process. I agree, however, that if you are doing something important with pictures or graphics, color refills might be a problem. Hoever, if all you need color for is to print a map from Yahoo and be able to tell I-95 from US 1, then it might not be a bad choice. Black ink is much easier.

I also wait for sales and try to get my ink as cheap as possible. If I can buy a $10 refill kit with enough ink to refill 3 times, then $3 versus $35 gives me a lot of reasons to try.
