Today one of my colleagues bought a Hewlett-Packard DeskJet 550-C color
inkjet printer, and he is already worried about the cost of replacement
cartridges. This is the newer model with cartridges containing 3 colors
plus black, that replaced the DeskJet Color model.

It seems like there was a discussion (here?) recently about how you do
this ... if memory serves, you have to drill a hole in the cartridge and
inject ink, but if you drill the hole at the "reasonable looking" spot,
ink squirts out when you print. Does anyone out there in Greater Netland
have this information?
