I get my original Epson cartridges refilled at a local shop called Cartridge World - not sure if they are a lone outfit or part of a chain. £30 for six cartridges to be refilled instead of £72 to buy new ones. The guy in the shop also told me yesterday that Epson are now making 5ml cartridges instead of 13.7ml. Also check out http://www.envizage.com - Continuous Ink Supply System.
