I use HP1018 Ljet since 2004 & believe me I have never purchased a cartridge till now !!! I am writing this guide to help you all refill toner in HP Laser Jet : Requirements: 1) HP Printer 2) Empty Toner Cartridge 3) Screw Driver 4) New HP Toner (magnetic) 5) Blower or Vacuum cleaner -- i would prefer the later coz it will not dirty your room. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eqidzfPIv60 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dccr_RML_cI&feature=related Follow the instructions in the video. In there you will see a cap where the guy puts toner. HP has realized that and now there is no cap, instead you can open the magnetic roller just above it & also a strip.. Slide the new toner in the gap & put the roller back again. Do not forget to match the roller threads before packing. 1st time it would take half an hour or so but then it is very easy once you are thorough with the procedure. Please be prepared to become black for the 1st time. All cleaning shown in the video can be easily done using a soft cloth and a vacuum cleaner. Also play safely with drum it should be scratch less for optimum print quality !! I dont know about other printers cos Samsung toner is also expensive & gives low throughput. Please spread a newspaper before refilling toner & dispose off the unused/spilled toner safely. My budget : JK green paper : 500 sheets : Rs110 : 0.22p per sheet i.e 0.11p per side. Toner : Rs50-60 depending on availability gives me 2500 sides : Rs 0.024 per side. Total : per sheet : 0.22 + 0.048 + 0.03 (drum charges) = Rs0.298 i.e if you print both sides You will have to change the drum every 4 refills for best print quality if medium print quality is ok it can last upto 10 refills. I buy drum for 300 but i bet it is available for much lesser than this .. didnt take much pains to look for one !! Caution & Note : I am not responsible if you damage your printer/cartridge during the refilling process. Happy refilling. If you have any more info pl let us all know in this thread !! Edit: I know one person in Mumbai who gives corporate one time used cartridge for Rs 1200/- It as new toner & eveything inside is new. That is what he claims but I am not sure if he replaces every part even though it is a good deal !!!

Froyo for HTC Incredible leaked Just in case all you Droid Incredible owners were jealous of the Galaxy S Froyo leak I wrote about earlier, I thought I’d better let you know that you can has Froyo, too. Those wonderful guys n gals over at XDA Forumshave managed to source a ROM based on the upcoming OTA release for the Droid Incredible, and it’s a wee ripper, with additions including: a new Gmail app with Copy & Paste (yay!) HTC Flashlight FM Radio widget Calculator widget SMS widget Sync all widget Profile widgets 3g mobile hotspot Genie widget (I don’t actually know what this is) App sharing program updated Messaging app 720p recording Flash mode on camcorder …and more. And, as it’s pretty much the final build, it’s as stable as you could expect it to be. Take that, Galaxy S owners! Full instructions are in the link I posted above. You’ll need Radio 2.x and above for it to work, though. Luckily enough, there are instruction for that, too.
