Refill ink from Sam's Club

Nov 19, 2002

A few weeks ago I purchased the canon I850 printer. About the same time, in this forum, I asked for information on Stratitec refill ink from Sams Club. No response. I was looking for 2 things....1. less costly printer supplies 2. local availability

After quickly running thru the canon ink supplied with the printer, I purchased the Stratitec refill for 20 bucks from Sam's Club. Printed many of the same photos I'd printed using the canon ink. No difference.

Though the Stratitec refill kit came with the rubber plugs and such for the ink cartridges, I took the advice of one of the posters in this room and used a heated paper clip to form a fill hole and a hot glue gun to seal the hole after filling. Thanks to that poster, though I've forgotten your name, it proved very successful and easy.

Paper.

I purchased Royal Brites High Gloss Photo paper from Sams Club for 20 bucks per 150 8 1/2 by 11 sheets. This I did early on to compare with the Canon paper supplied with the printer and some Kodak paper I had from a previous printer. Royal Brites output quality looks just like the Kodak output, and better than the Canon output. Canon paper, even using their canon ink, has a milky film look in darker photos. Royal Brite didn't have this problem.

Thanks to all the informative posts, and good luck.
