www.ink2u.co.uk/

All ordering online, prompt delivery, most helpful.

No idea whether their prices are competitive though.

I bought a HP printer a while back, cheapy.

£39.99 for the printer.

Complete pack of cartridges?

£54

Its preposterous.

I'm guessing that you are a disposable razor user as well.

No, but then you only get a couple of blades in a razor thats less than the cost of 8 razor blades...

I got some compatible cartridges from www.dvd-and-media.com/ after deciding to stick with the inkjet, 20 quid all in for colour and the black one including postage. The prints look good quality too so can't grumble.

I used CartridgeMonkey.com, 12 quid for a set of 4 for my Epson CX5400... but I haven't installed them yet.

Edit: Arse, it's a 5400, not a 5200...

By far the cheapest i've found. £3 for my epson cartridges. Don't expect instant delivery, but who would for £3?

I've found that buying a twin-pack of genuine HP inkjet cartridges for my HP printer is cheaper at Costco than buying a single one at Staples.

No idea how that compares with the websites mentioned by other posters though.
