My daughter recently purchased a second-hand Dell P4 that came with the
above referenced printer. I normally order my ink from PrintPal for my Canon
printer but am unable to find the Dell replacements listed. In reading
through this ng I see that the A920 is apparently a modified Lexmark unit
and am wondering if anyone has found it possible to substitute Lexmark
replacement carts to use in the A920.

Barring that, does anyone have any recommendations for purchase of the Dell
carts for the thing at reasonable prices from reputable on-line ink vendors?
A Google search turned up a zillion ink sellers but I'm not familiar with
any but PrintPal.

Before you monkey around with the dell a920 do consider the high cost
of consumables, and the relativly low cost of a replacement printer.
IIRC this is one of those that the cost of ink is SO high that another
printer costing $100 would be cheaper after the first refill of OEM
ink. In the past i've mailed these pritners to One Dell Way Round
Rock Texas with no return address in the hopes they get the message
that they are not worth the cost of their ink.

If after consideration you stick with the dell... I have no direct
experence modifying the a920. Physicaly from my understanding you can
modify the printer with an x-acto knife to accept lexmark cartridges.
Whether or not the printer is electronicly keyed to "dells" version is
not something I personaly know.

Should this interest you I would strongly sugest seeking a greater
authority than my self. I'm only aware that Dell buys their printers
from Lexmark, and some cartridges that are the same except for some
minor shape changes so you are forced to buy your ink from Dell.
Beyond that I personaly I avoid these printers.

Heh, you must feel strongly to invest that kind of postage.

Interesting. Seems worth investigating, though. I doubt my daughter will
want to buy another printer unless this one is too expensive to maintain.

I agree, if it were mine I'd probably give it away. The group from which the
link you posted originated may be a good source for information of this
sort, thanks for that.

Heh, a SHOUTING asshole at that! You even threw in a classic "mother"
insult!

As a troll, you're fairly pathetic, but I'm a little surprised to see your
kind in the "comp" hierarchy. Just out of curiosity, did you get laughed out
of one of the other hierarchies where the real trolls hang out, or are you
just a kid using Mommy's PC?
