late to the conversation..but..I buy my ink cartridges from LD products, about
$7 for HP OfficeJet Pro, and HP 950.

I don't have a lot of money to spend (much less to waste) on printer
cartridges, for example. (A couple years ago I bought a 12-pack of HP
cartridges for my old HP 825c, but before I could actually use them, the
ink dried up! I don't want to go through that again.)
I managed to download the drivers for Debian, the product manual,
researched everything I could think of, but now it comes to spending my
last few bucks (literally) on the second-most expensive substance* known in
human history, so I hesitate before using my debit card.

Brother, of course, "strongly recommends" not to use third-party, or
refillable cartridges, etc., but I don't have a warranty, anyway, as I got
this thing used.
Has anybody else tried the third-party replacement cartridges or
refillables?
I'll have more questions about set-up, I'm sure, once I get my cartridges.
Everything seems to work fine, except for no ink.
