The goal of Walmart’s return policy is to provide the best experience to the customers and to minimize the impact on the stores, employees, and the environment. When you purchase an item from Walmart, you will receive a return label to take with you when you leave the store. Walmart has changed its return policy for ink cartridges. If you have purchased an ink cartridge in-store or online, you can now return it within the required time frame for a refund or exchange. If you have purchased an ink cartridge online, you can print your return label and bring it to any of the 1,000+ stores for your refund or exchange. The purchased ink cartridge at Walmart can be returned for a full refund or exchanged for another within ninety (90) days of purchase. If you do not have a receipt, there is no problem. Many items can still be returned in-store with a valid ID.

Frequently asked questions
How do Ink cartridges work?
Ink is put in a cartridge with thousands of little plastic balls, which are then inserted into the printer. When the cartridge is removed from the printer, the balls fall into a chute and the ink is squirted out. Many people ink cartridges to be refilled at their local store. In comparison, a refill cartridge for a laser printer can be refilled from the comfort of your own home, at a fraction of the cost, and in a fraction of the time. Plus, modern ink cartridges are designed to work with all the major brands of inkjet printers.
Does Walmart take opened returns?
The short answer is “no,” they do not. While they do accept returns after a certain period, they are only accepting them because they receive them from customers, not because they give them out for free. The stores will not open a return until that time and they will then only accept it to get the money back, which they will, in turn, give to the customer or the charity of the customer’s choice.
