Will pay for helpful advice !!

I just bought a laser printer from E-mart about 6 months ago for 99,000.

It has worked great thus far, until the ink ran out. I took the cartridge to E-mart,asked them "issoyo?" only to get an "upsoyo" (Can't get and don't have it they said)

Homever does not have any either.

The only Lexmark website has cartridges for sale, but they cost 2/3 of the printer itself (66.00) and don't ship to Korea.

How is it that a store can sell a frickin printer with no ink refill is beyond me. This is an emergency and I need my printer working.

Does anyone know how in the heck to get a refill for a Lexmark E120??

it's still bad form - essentially spamming.

and as I mentioned in your duplicate post, you need to get yourself this printer.

Wow, you do have an emergency.

Refills are expensive. If you have the time, you can order a re-fill it yourself kit off the net. Just search google. They are messy though and can be a pain in the arse.

I really recommend that you shell out for a color lazer printer next time. You'll go longer inbetween cartridge changes. They print faster and in better quality, etc.

If it's a real emergency, go buy another inkjet printer. Go to a bargain store and don't be picky about the brand. You should be able to pick up a cheap HP or another lexmark for under 100. I got a free printer when I bought my cheap samsung digital camera. 7 megapixel cheap camera and printer/ 120,000

good luck

If the right toner (not "ink") cartridge for the OP's Lexmark E120 is "Lexmark 12017SR" -- and it seems to be -- then I don't see what the problem is. That toner cartridge is available at 32 Korean online malls for as little as 51,000 won, which is totally in line with other brands, and with that many malls carrying it, you can bet it's available at brick & mortar shops here as well.

Re: the "high" price of replacement toner/ink cartridges, people really need to stop biatching about that (because it's not "high") and start doing the Happy Drunk Monkey Dance for paying so goddamn little for the printers in the first place. AND, with laser your per-page costs are a pittance.

That's an interesting set up and looks to be cheap in the long run.
