Does anyone know of a source for GOOD ink sticks from a supplier other than Xerox. I enjoy playing with my Phaser 350, but I think the science fair project my kid just printed probably cost $200-250. The price of Xerox ink is outrageous. Are there other good sources? Please help.
 
I have the most reasonable ink for my phaser 350 on Ebay...about 25-30% cost of new. I would hesitate on using brans other than Xerox as there have reports of printheads problems when using off brands.

Good luck.

There are a couple sources I've been using for a while, but be sure they offer a warranty to cover you if Xerox doesn't.
Try - good prices and they offer a warranty on the ink.
 
Although these inks are cheaper, I advise you all not to do this.

The density of the ink is significantly different and we see heads that have been destroyed by third-party solid ink all the time.
 
DO NOT USE BRAND X INKS. It cost me a new printer to find this out. The warantee means NOTHING. They will replace your ink, but not your printer, They are waranteeing the INK not the PRINTER. Buy genuine ink on ebay for the least expensive source. Buy ONLY if it is in sealed XEROX tubs.

Good luck
