There are lots of aftermarket ones. Not going to name them.
I got into the aftermarket ink a long time ago when I was running 4 printers and pushing out lots of work from them.
Friend of mine has a computer business and he put me onto a local supplier where I got ink for 3 to 5 bucks a cartridge. They were every bit as good as OEM but for a fraction of the cost.
If I could advise one thing though, make sure any you get have the chip on them. Most cartridges have a chip to communicate with the printer. Without that, they will likely not work. Years ago I had one chipless batch where I had to pry the chip off the old one and glue it to the new one, a total pain in the rear. And it gave the readout of the empty cartridge anyways....
