HP Ink carts for Photosmart 8150?

[crazylady]

I have been given an HP Photosmart 8150 & the colours seem to be a bit wrong. Have tried changing the inks (but the "new" carts were quite old too) so this didnt seem to help very much. I put in a new colour, & photo cart. Have not tried it with a grey ink as I didnt have one!

Several questions for you to help please?

1. Does anyone have one of these printers & does it print good photos of A4 size?

2. Is it worth buying a new set of inks & trying that?

3. Should I use HP oringinals (as current) or can anyone recommend compatibles?

4. Finally, where is the cheapest/best place to buy?

many thanks

I've got the 8250 (not 8150) and its excellent. Superb A4 prints.

I use HP originals, I had a source for £4.99 for a new cart, can't remember the name now! I'll see if I can find it.

I've used http://www.tonik.co.uk/Inkjet but their prices are a bit mental now.
