Island Ink-Jet

This entry refers to a departed business that has closed or left town. All information here is for historical reference only.

 

Island Ink-Jet was a store in the University Mall in front of Gottschalks that refilled ink cartridges for cheaper than it would cost to buy new cartridges. They were featured in a California Aggie article. Cheaper and more environmentally friendly. They closed down in November, 2006.

Check out Aggie Express which is located right next to where Island Ink-Jet used to be. They offer a variety of inkjet cartridges as well as refill toner cartridges at reasonable prices. You can swap your empty ink cartridge with a professionally refilled and print tested one of the same kind without any wait time.

You can also get ink cartridges for around $1 to $4 each online, but be careful: some shipping charges are high enough so that you need to order quite a few for it to be worthwhile.

2007-01-16 14:53:01   I'm sad now that they're closed. I went in to have some cartridges refilled today and just kind of stood there moping around for a few minutes trying to figure out what to do. —AndrewLeonard
