What ink works best with this paper? I've used HP inkjet printers,also refill inks but they all fade with washing, some even smudge badly. Thanks!

I use an Epson jet printer with factory ink. I have had very good long lasting results with this paper/printer combo.

I can't comment on HP inks or their refill inks. I use Epson printers exclusively. The after-market brands of inks work great. I don't get any fading or smudging. This is probably because Epson inks and their after-market copy cats stain the fabrics. I have washed & dried shirts, violating all the recommendations, and they hold up extremely well. I use the transfer papers to make shirts, caps, tote bags, etc. commercially and I am well satisfied. I buy my after-market Epson inks from Amazon sellers. Some of them are less than $1 per cartridge. Well worth the investment in an Epson printer if you do a lot of printing like I do.

I use sublimation ink and I never had any problem with fading or washing out. Colors may not be as bright as the other ink but it will never fade out and will last for a thousand washes.

I purchased this paper to use with heat press and I use it with Sublimation Ink only and a Ricoh printer so I'm not certain what 'regular' inks will suffice.

The best inks to use would be Epson durabrite inks or non OEM pigment inks. You can still use refillable ink cartridges or CISS cartridges, but make sure they are pigment inks. The results come out pretty good and can be washed several times without fading or smudging.

I have an HP LaserJet 4000TN (black & White). Doesn't smudge. InkJet might.

Boy,..that's a good question...I have an inkjet all in one and this paper is the best!...no idea if it works with laser printers....I just looked all over the box and the only thing I can find is this little logo that says "works with....kodak, epson, dell, lexmark, brother, canon, and hp"...but it does'nt tell what kind of printer......just the brand

Maybe they where talking about the refills you inject. Honestly i would stay with suggested cartriges. Check the XL versions of ink, they carry a lot more ink

I've been refilling my ink cartridges and had three different kinds of experiences with the same printer. 1) If you keep an ink tank topped off, it doesn't seem to know you've been adding ink and behaves rather well. 2) If you fill a tank just before it goes empty, the printer gets confused. The "gas gage" for that tank says the "tank may have run out", but it shows that you added ink. 3) If you wait until a tank runs dry and then fill it, the printer won't use the ink until you accept the fact that you are voiding the warranty. Apparently, the printer then remembers that the waranty has been voided, and it no longer tracks the ink level for that tank. I used to be an engineering manager at HP's inkjet division. Don't be afraid to refill tanks. It only takes a few refills to save enough money to buy your next printer. (Be sure to use Canon compatible ink. They are easy to find on the web.)

I'm not quite sure what you're asking; however, I've found that one of the tricks to successfully using this refill ink is to not let the cartridge run out completely. The moment you notice that your printing is becoming streaky or faded, refill the cartridge. Another "trick" I do is to drill a small hole near the top front of the cartridge so that I can inject (with refill syringe) fresh ink without removing the cartridge from the printer. You may need to occasionally remove the cartridge to wipe the print head. I use a tissue and some rubbing alcohol for this. Don't know if this answers your question. Good luck.

It's not the newer printers, it's their inks and papers. Many are printing permanent images, dry quickly and almost never smear, if handled correctly. Sloppy can mess up almost anything, but newer printers are really worth their costs. I recommend sticking with an Epson printer if you're going to be using Epson paper. It's a nice match.Read

I always use the genuine ink. I just think overall things will work out better that way. I have never measured pages per cartridge but it is porobably reasonable. Your printer apparently uses CLI226 and PGI 225. I'm not thrilled with printers which use so many different inks but that seems to be the trend these days. Have a Blessed day!

No, you can't use this paper for inkjet printers. This paper is for laser printers that use toner, not ink.

I like Noodler's, even though it doesn't "cure" as fast as the Fast Dry Private Reserve. I can reactivate Noodler's with a light wash and watercolor brush for a time after laying down line work. Even though it may seem dry to the touch, Noodler's can still smudge for a while. This is great if, like me, you wish to use it for quick ink washes. Not so great if you want to lay in clean color during the same sketching session, or if you want to use it for lettering and have a tendency to work with the side of your palm touching the paper. (I would imagine this would be particularly so with southpaws who must work from left to right over their freshly inked lines.) I use Noodler's in a couple of vintage fountain pens and have no problems whatsoever; it is the only ink I'm currently using in my Lamy medium nib pens.

Sorry to have been vague. you can simply buy INK-REFILLS Compatible Refill Kit for HP (Black/Cyan/Magenta/Yellow) after the original ink is used and refill these large cartridges. There is a rubber gromet that comes off the tip of the cartridge and allows for it the be refilled.

I buy all of my ink from the HP website. It is 10% cheaper than retail (same price as Amazon) and free shipping-plus you occasionally get a free package of photo paper with the order. You can buy all of the color cartirdges as a set or buy each color separately for $9.95. I have printed 250 pages of text and my black cartidge is only down 25%

Yes, I use this paper in my inkjet & laser printer & works just fine.Just have the paper turned to the rite side to print on.you can do a simple test to see what side your printer prints on cause the 2 part paper must be printed on correct side.

I did not have any luck with this product. Just did not work well with my HP Officejet All-In-One printer. I have stopped trying remanufactured ink cartridges. I tried several brands with no success. I have had real success with the InkTec Refill Kit for HP Printers purchased at Amazon. This refill kit works great, provided I use a relatively newer HP cartridge. Perhaps InkTec has a refill kit that will work for your printer.

With one I just bought used through Amazon I haven't had a problem, but my last one I had a big problem with paper feed. I had over $100 in ink cartridges so I purchased a used one and it seems to work great. But I also use the best paper. It's thicker.

My printer gives me the option of original or generic. I did have an issue before but used a different brand of printer paper and now it's fine. I bought the cheap paper at Walmart and it works great.
