| 247457 | 2004-06-24 23:48:00 | I have Canon S6300. It is A3 printer. It is said that use of cheaper refills shorten head lifespan. A new head would cost about $270, while 4 Canon cartridges about $100. Calidad refill set about $40. It can save $60. Result-if the head will survive more then 5 refills, then it would make sens to take risk of replacing the head. Any opinions? |

BTW its canon who say that "cheaper refills shorten head lifespan", they say this is make you use the $100 ink :-) i would think that you should get many more then 5 refills before you have print head problems. |
