We refill cartridges from all major printer cartridge manufacturers including Lexmark, Canon, Epson, HP, and Dell. Our technicians are fully trained in the latest refilling techniques, and are kept up to date by our Research and Development Department. If for some reason your cartridge can’t be refilled, we have compatible and remanufactured cartridges that will give you great results and still save your money.

If you don’t have time to wait for a refill we can find a solution that gets you on your way immediately. If you have the time to wait, most refills are done in 20-25 minutes or so.

Most people can’t tell the difference between the printing from a refilled cartridge and a new cartridge because the attributes of the inks we use are carefully matched to those of the original manufacturer. We use world class inks & toners to reduce fading and give you the results you expect. In fact, your satisfaction is guaranteed.

A refilled cartridge should last just as long or longer than your original cartridge. New cartridges are often sold as either standard or high yield capacity. Other than the higher price of a high yield cartridge, the only difference between the two is the amount of ink the cartridge originally contains. Re-feel Cartridge Engineering refills all cartridges to their full capacity, transforming standard capacity cartridges to high yield cartridgesat a fraction of the cost and giving you twice as much printing.

With proper care, a cartridge can be successfully refilled several times, however, eventually all cartridges do fail for reasons other than being out of ink. See our tips below.

We recommend the following tips for optimizing the life of your inkjet cartridge:

  • Print at least once a week.
  • When your printer gives a low ink warning, stop printing and prepare the cartridge for refilling as soon as possible.
  • Remove the cartridge from the printer, avoiding contact with the print head.
  • Dampen a small piece of folded paper towel and attach it to the side of the cartridge with an elastic band.
  • Place the cartridge into a zip top bag, avoiding contact with print head at all times, and bring it to your local Re-feel Store.

Call the Re-feel location that refilled your cartridge or send them an email. The contact information for all Re-feel Store locations is available online.

Inkjet cartridges are made of plastics which use approximately 2.5 ounces of oil for each new cartridge manufactured. We can refill the cartridges reducing landfill waste and the amount of new resources required to manufacture new cartridges.

Having your cartridge refilled means that the life of each cartridge can be extended by using it multiple times. We also refill non-print head cartridges which would normally not qualify for recycle programs.

No. Using refilled cartridges does not affect your warranty. We simply refill the cartridge designed by the manufacturer. Federal law prohibits any company or person from requiring you to exclusively purchase their product. Your rights as a consumer are protected under the Magnusson-Moss Warranty Federal Trade Commission Improvement Act, Section 101 (USA) and by the Combines Act (CDN). The printer manufacturers would like you to believe that refilling will affect your warranty but the law states that it does not. In the unlikely event that leakage from the cartridge occurs, we will arrange to have your printer professionally cleaned and repaired, and even replaced if necessary.

There is no thumb rule in the industry. A cartridge can be refilled from 2-20 times depending on the model & the way it has been handled. For more number of refills, we use the best quality raw materials, machineries & processes.

My vendor suggests that he can refill a cartridge 2 to 3 times and then probably go for a new or recycled cartridge. Is it true ?

The components used in an original cartridge are intended for single use only. Reusing the critical components would either mean that you would have mid cycle failure, or toner powder spillage due to a faulty cleaning blade which may damage the fuser unit. The drum becomes weak & might develop dots leading to faulty print outs and subsequently you would change the cartridge mid way. Here you loose money on refilling and get poor prints with which you have to compromise. Reconditioned cartridges give same output as an OEM. Refilled cartridges give only around 35% output when compared to OEM or reconditioned.
