Wal-Mart has the Lexmark Z515 Grab 'N Go Printer Bundle for $47.77. This package includes both the #17 and #27 cartridges, worth over $40, plus 10 sheets of Fuji 8.5" X 11" photo paper.

Lexmark has a rebate $40 for this printer until March 31st. Final price would work out to be $7.77 plus taxes on the original amount.

Now if you have a any X11xx series All-in-one, Z3X series printer, Z5XX series printer or Z6XX series printer, it is cheaper to buy this instead of plain ink. These cartridges included are moderate yield ones, so they will be good for about 250 sheets.

Lexmark rebates are quite reliable, I have gotten all of mine within 2 months, and never had to call them about it.

Why do you want to refill a "disposible" printer ?? Just buy several of them http://www.dolnetwork.com/RFD/smilies/sunglasses.gif

Reminder : #27 is the "moderate use" size ink cart ... It won't last very long ... Manufacturer claims "Lexmark 10N0227 (#27) prints up to 140 pages of colored document" only ... I would say ~ 70 probably ...

Lexmark and HP printer carts are barely refillable ie the print head is part of the cart and after one or two refills, the print head burns out.

Better deal IMHO is the Cannon i560 (refurb) at Canada Computers for $35.
The carts are easily refillable (print head is part of the printer and not the ink cart) and if you don't want the hassle of refilling yourself, no name carts are available for around $5.
