Mixed results, but the best of them very good.

Regularly refill mine, colour included. Have helped in the development
of at one refill kit.

Run unchipped cartridges until they really are empty. Vacuum (using vac
with HEPA filter) the empty cartridge thoroughly. Outside the house.

HALF FILL the cartridge. Overfilling can be disastrous and is the
cause of many of the complaints of noisy, jamming, leaking cartridges.

Be sure to remember that some printers require a counter to be reset.
