Is there a risk to using a refilled cartridge?
Not at all! There should be no difference in the print quality after the cartridge is refilled. Our 100% money back satisfaction guarantee is a sign of our confidence and removes any risk from you trying our services. Here's what consumers have to say about the overall market.

How much money will I save by refilling?
Your savings may vary depending on your printer. As a rule of thumb, you can expect refills at Cartridge World to be up to 50% less than the cost of a new cartridge.

Will using refilled cartridges void the printer manufacturer's warranty?
No. The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act prohibits the manufacturer of the printer you are using from voiding the warranty because you use a refilled or remanufactured cartridge. Printer manufacturers will almost always advise you against refilling. The simple reason for this is that manufacturers would like you to buy their expensive replacement cartridges and accessories. Even with the protection of this law, you should also feel confident that cartridges sold, refilled or remanufactured by Cartridge World will meet or exceed your expectations. Our own warranty also extends to your printer on any valid claim!

How much time does it take to refill my Cartridge?
In many cases you won’t have to wait at all! Our stores carry an assortment of the more common cartridges already refilled or remanufactured, ready-to-go. Just trade in your empty and you’re on your way! If we don’t have your cartridge ready-to-go, it typically takes between 5 and 10 minutes. Inkjet cartridges can be refilled more quickly than laser cartridges can be remanufactured.

If you don't have an empty cartridge, no worries! Cartridge World stores also carry a broad assortment of OEM and new compatible cartridges.

How many times can a cartridge be refilled?
We have seen evidence of a Canon BC-02 being refilled over 20 times. Typically we believe a black cartridge can be refilled about 6 or 7 times. This all depends on the type of cartridge and how well you take care of your cartridges. (See Cartridge Education for more information.) We test your cartridges after they have been refilled/re-manufactured, hence our 100% satisfaction guarantee.
