Epson Cartridges Thread

tiggerbabe

I ordered both black and colour cartridges from Inkcycle and they came really quickly.

There was no problem with the black cartridge, but when I loaded the colour cartridge my pc told me that I was using a non Epsom cartridge and I may experience a different standard of print......understatement!!

Anything with colour in it comes out a completely different colour from what you see on screen...

I wrote to Inkcycle for some advice, they kindly sent me a replacement, but the same thing has happened with that!

It looks as thought I may be forced to stump up for a full price colour cartridge after all, don't want to damage the printer as it is quite new - anyone got any advice before I do? ???

Thanks

Who are the cheapest ?

I posted here earlier about my problems with Maximans!
Choice Stationery seemed to be the best bet. But after checking the latest posts I had a quick update and pheonix direct posted by Lupuspete are a little cheaper. Certainly for my RX500 they are miles cheaper than medea international, MX2, inkraider etc.
But has anyone else tried them as we all know that the cheapest is not necessarily the best !
Would be pleased to hear any comments. ::) ::) ::)

Ink Cartridges really killed me !!!!!
They ate my money a lot !

I then tried to find some other solutions, for example refill ink, or use bulk ink system from several vendors. some of them use sponage tech, that is pretty stupid, since my print head actually got damage, and the sponage borken too.

I then purchased a continuous inkflow system from InkRepublic.com

I am not trying to adv, but their product is the best I have ever tried !

At least, I dont have any problem till now and I am pretty enjoy my bulk ink system and my Epson R200.

I've been using choicestationery.com for over 3 years now and have bought well over 100 cartridges (unchipped) for my Epson 1160 which is driven through a software RIP for professional colour proofing (I'm a designer), no problems at all in terms of colour accuracy, and even LESS trouble with blockages than the half dozen original epson items I used.
Current price for my printer is 4 black and 4 colour (double quad pack) is £14.49 INCLUDING VAT and delivery! Delivery is nearly always 2 days, but sometimes next day.
There are probably some cheaper, but in terms of value, I can't recommend them highly enough. Thanks guys!
