OT: replacment tray for HP DJ1200C printer

Injet refill kits abound, though I've not yet tried one myself. I presently
have DJ5xx series, DJ 820Cxx, DJ1120C, and this DJ1200C, all of which can use
refilled cartridges. Has anybody had success with this money-saving process?
Does it work well enough to warrant a substantial investment in ink? How is the
shelf-life of the refill ink? This might be worthy of a discussion thread,
since there seem to be more vendors of refill kits every day.
