What is the difference between a remanufactured ink cartridge and a refilled ink cartridge? -

When remanufacturing an ink cartridge does one simply refill a spent ink cartridge, or is there more involved in it than that?

remanufactured cartridges are *usually* refilled after the sponge (if applicable) and any electronic parts are replaced. now, keep in mind some companies do indeed only refill them (rhinotek, i m looking at you) and that s really a crappy thing to do. refillers like the one i work for just refill the cart and hand it back to you. usually we will test it first to make sure it still works :P

its the same thing

I have no idea. sorry.:)

remanufactured = rebuilt refilled = ink put back into used cartridge referbished = can mean *alot* of things

Um, I think the difference between new and refurb? $20.00 I am all about the refurb I hate to spend a bunch on ink. The only real dirrerence is they will give you a false empty notification, why? because tehy actually have a memory and a batterie in them that tells the pc when they quot;shouldquot; be empty. Just use it till its dead and go get a large pepperini adn italian sausage (a few Jalapinos on the side) and a 6 of Miller Lite, or a cpl 40 s of Malt...........................

I would stick with the regular ink cartridges because the refillable ones are a rip off.

the remanu has had the computer cards swapped out.

remanufactured opens the cases and makes sure the springs are replaced and cleans it up and refills... refilled is ink only
