Nice lady, letting you know

#Post

For some reason I still don't understand why I was banned from the mb for a month. It only added to an already stressful situation, Just letting you know we are moving to the south island and I may well need your help when we get there with new computer issues. Just know that your replies have always been very appreciated and helpful to me.

Oh already found something I like your thoughts on. I have an HP office jet pro 910 all in one printer, needing 965 or 965 xl ink cartridges, they are so flipping expensive. What is the most economical and sensible way to refill/buy them?

Why would they ban you, omaria? I don't think I've ever seen an offensive comment from you.

Very weird.

As for the ink there's some very good sellers of compatible inks here on TM. Personally I've NEVER bought the 'real' inks for my printers and never had any trouble either.

Hope your move goes well and pack lots of warm clothes lol.

Already packed LOL
My issue with cartridges is the jolly expense having to buy 4 of them.

Yes. Well the cost of any are ridiculous. HP are perhaps the worst as they are very liable to reject non original cartridges. You could only try. Jerryscience seems to sell reasonably good carts here on TM. At least they work with my Canon printer. As I say HP ....... Good luck. If you only print text it might be better to get a laser printer.

To replace all FIVE carts on my Canon cost about $35 in TOTAL for compatibles.

I will try, but when I was sold this bulky machine, was told it was the best for my needs, mainly documents, occasional pictures.

I wonder if Trademe management would care to explain this banning, and perhaps apologise and punish the staff member responsible?

They tried to explain it to me and it sort of made sense but felt it was very over the top, I wasnt giving anything away, I was just asking how best to get rid of unwanted items. I did not encourage anyone to call or contact me or put my number on here. But.....its done, its been and gone. Ce sera sera. But thanks for caring enough to ask :) XX

Done by faceless office staff who have no reason to care.

Yep and so far no issues with any of teh cartridges either. I did expect a dud or two at that price but so far all work perfectly

Calidad cartridges (61) from the Warehouse for HP 2510 etc.
Approx half price of factory originals.
Also print capacity is greater as well.

It's a catch22 situation by the sound of it.
A Mono Laser printer is all you need if only ever printing documents & cheap toners are available on trademe.
Lasers don't car about sitting for a few years untouched but Inkjet printers can fail a month or 3, of not being used.

inkjet for awesome photo prints
Laser printer for long life & cheap running

You need to consider are what do you really need it for the most.
Perhaps you could run both types ok if you are using color about once per week but most of your printing is in black only (documents etc)

Trader 'Tonerink" has been proven to supply good quality products at awesome prices.
My toners are around $150 OEM each but I get them for about $35 delivered from Trademe.
