Struggling with HP OfficeJet d145

I use an HP OfficeJet d145 for very rare color printing: ERDs, business cards, the occasional map. When I do, invariably, the magenta ink irregular, leaving a green cast to the pictures. Using the supplied HP utilities to print a couple of test pages, print head alignment tests and inkjet purges, I can get great results, but at the cost of 10% of the $40 cartridge. Pretty expensive printing.

To save the costs, I’m looking at less expensive ink refill kits. Any advice or observations would be appreciated. Here’s a few links I’ve spotted:
