3rd party inks-cartridges

Yes, I use 3rd party inks with the Epson 4000 at the school that I teach at. It's for economical reasons. I get it from 123Inkcartridges in Quebec. Right now $20 per cartridge. I am planning to use the refillable cartridges, which should be a big saver on costs. I have never had a problem with these inks and the prints look great.

SAShruby,

Cone inks are just a brand I see. They are just typical piezo inks for epson printers. They are also MUCH more expensive than MIS or Macro Enter's inks. Both of those companies use specially formulated inks as well at almost half the price. I'd recommend giving either one of those companies a look.
