Thanks to both who replied...definitely will help! I will
end up refilling the 17 (and telling the Lexmark program
its a new cartridge) more often then until it gives out and
then getting a 16 cartridge would be better because it will
require refilling less often though the total ink
consumption is still about the same for the printer.
