 Not likely. Refilling Laser Cartridges by hte home user is not as
nearly as popular as the Ink Cartridges. And the Lasers were not sold as
a Throwaway Loss Leader just to get the Cartridge sales like most of the
Ink Jets are.                                 
There is SO much money in Cartridge sales, It is the MAIN surce of
income orr hte HP home Computer division, that other Computer
manfacturers are making deals to sell InkJets branded with their name.
On the premise that the typical Home Computer User will come back and
buy their Branded Ink Cartridges.
