Island Inkjet - Watch your Colors Soar: I found these guys in a mall kiosk down in Omaha — they’ll fill inkjet cartidges for you on the spot, or you can drop your off and come pick them up later.

They push the environmental aspect:

[…] direct environmental benefits. In 2004 alone Island Ink-Jet saved 1,636,806 cartridges from landfills.

They have 200 stores and are franchising. This is one franchise I’d be interested in owning, because allowing people a way out of vendor lock-in is something I’d like to support.

Has anyone use these guys or a similar service? I’d be interested to know how well it works.
