Need a new refill for my laserprinter so stopped by pcworld and the HP one i need is £75 which i didnt bother getting as i thought id find it cheaper online - which i can @ £55. But during the search for that found quite alot of 'remanufactured' ones selling for about £20. Will these be OK or is it a false economy with crap quality of print and a jammed up printer the likely result?

Its the HP Q2612A cartridge if that makes any difference.

No - they don't empty the waste toner compartment and it leaves streaky lines all over the page. Been there, done that with HP toner cartridges.

It's possible to set up the printer to continue printing after it thinks the cartridge is empty. We got nearly 2000 extra pages this way.
