That's a fucking rip off, I bet you can get em cheaper online somewhere. What printer have you got?

You'd nearly buy a new printer for that price...

That's the bag with inkjet printers... they charge you next to nothing for the printer but they fuck you in the ass for ink.

I have a really shitty Lexmark laser printer... it sucks. Fuck Lexmark.

Hmm I haven't seen the X15 anywhere... are you sure that's the right model? Not X125 or something?

Well a quick Google search for Lexmark inkjet cartridge found this site http://www.euroffice.co.uk which is UK based and has them for about £20 each. That's a bit more acceptable. You'll find cheaper than that though, probably, if you shop around. Also check out http://www.onestopinkshop.co.uk

Many printers go through a stupid "cleaning" routine everytime you power them up. This "cleaning" wastes ink to clean the printer heads. So if you have everything hooked up to a power strip and frequently turn it off and on, it is forcing you to waste and use up ink even if you arent printing anything. Keep your printer turned off at all times until you need to use it. It will save alot of ink.
