Re: advise on replacement printer needed

2006-02-06 by dl5012

Hi Kevin,

I buy mine from someone in Canada.  He lists toner refills and 
remanufactured drums on eBay.  IIRC, the toner refills are US$5 + US$5 
for shipping.  Comes in an oversized bottle with a funnel and 
instructions.  He says you should be able to refill each cartridge 
twice.  Once you get the hang of removing the filler plug, it's pretty 
easy (could be messy if you're not careful and I think the toner is 
bad for you).

If you're interested, I can email you his address.

The Optra E and Optra E+ seem to share the same toner cartridges and 
drums.  There's a guy selling user guides and service manuals on 
eBay.  He's in the UK.

Regards,
Dennis
