While I have used Cartridge World refills on my LJ5 since 1997, the 2550C color laser jet won't work with any other than a gen-u-wine HP cartridge. Those are $$$ and I've already put too much money into this unit.
A bit of web research found the Dell C1760NW to be a good unit for an affordable price, and while Amazon charges $263 for a set of cartridges other vendors sell sets in the $50-60 range -- for all four, not just one. Has anyone experience with Dell laser printers and off-brand cartridges? If not, suggestions on where I might find some insight on this issue? My research also taught me that Dell and Xerox have mated and the C1760NW is a re-branded Xerox Phaser 6000B. This is important because Dell provides printer drivers for only proprietary OSes: windoze and osx. But, Xerox provides a linux driver in both .deb and .rpm packages (easily converted to Slackware's .tgz package).
