Lexmark #4 black ink cartridge

Use for personal business, and occassionally graphs and misc for own personal use. Excellent product, and not very many places carry this numbered cartridge, but I can always find it at Staples

Lexmark 4 Black Cartridge Review

The cartridges are easy to change out and no residue. The problem is these cartridges are expensive for the copies they produce. In addition, there has been no improvements on this cartridge for over two years, but the price, I say again is way to high to other printers and the copies that this cartridge produces.

I do love my printer is why,I hope there can be a adjustment to the price and better longevity to the cartridge life.

Comments about Lexmark 4 (18C1974) Black Ink Cartridge:

Staples is the only store in Wisconsin where I can buy the Lexmark Numbers 4 and 5 cartridges. Please do not ever discontinue these cartridges. I only print certain documents but the quality is good for what documents I print. I like that Staples gives me credit for cartridges I bring back in. The staff at Staples is always pleasant and very knowledgeable and I enjoy going in the stores. The staff always tells me of any new developments. Last time the gal told me about the ink card which gives me a discount on cartridges I buy before May 2014. I greatly appreciate that.
