    Ok, my hands are multicolored as I've just refilled my ink cartridges. I was just wondering is there any way to get the ink off? I've tryed bath cleaner and all sorts with no luck. Will anything short of bleach get this blasted ink off my fingers?

    Also, someone said sometime that refilling the ink cartridges will shorten the life of your printer. How does it affect it in this way that it will damage your printer? I don't get it.

    2. I think it's just an urban myth. If anything, it shortens the life of the catrige

    because the printing head wears off (you can't refill it forever).
    but that's logical and not affecting the actual machine

    Its eventually came off with bleach and sand paper.

    So refilling ink cartridges wont damage your printer? What if you refill one too many times and it starts to fall to bits, ie one of the litte nozzles have came off and stuck to the cartridge dock and it leaks a little bit of ink?

    And if you don't own rubber gloves, you can lease ... with an option to buy.
