[comp.periphs.printers] refilling HP deskjet cartridges

I've been experimenting this afternoon with a few used HP Deskjet cartridges, a
hypodermic syringe and a bottle of ink.  They seem to print quite nicely when
refilled, except that the ink is rather inclined to smudge.

Has anyone been doing this for a while and have recommendations of what ink to
use?  Alternatively, has anyone found any other problems/drawbacks to recycling
Deskjet cartridges.

Mail me and I'll summarise to the net.
