Cheap ink source for HP inks? (And are HP ink Pigmented or..

Archived from groups: comp.periphs.printers (More info?)

So with all these different kinds of inks floating around... what does HP
use? Pigmented ink or not?

and who here with HP printers refills and where do you get your inks? I've
been buying locally- $20 for a 3 color kit with 32ml of each color. Or I
can buy 60ml of each color for $11/ea. But I've seen prices online for
$10-$15 for 8oz or more of each color.

What kinds of ink do I want for a HP 7660 #57 tri-color cart?
Any advice would be appreciated.

That is not quite true. All but the oldest HP black ink cartridges use
pigmented inks. Most of the color cartridges are dye based although there are
pigmented options for the DesignJet printers.
