Does anyone know or done any research to determine who or what makes the Epson Compatible G&G pigment inks - especially for the wide format carts. cheers

good point!

what about teflon? nylon?

Screwthread sealed by an o-ring would work. cheers

I am interested in what experience users have had in 3rd party inks for Epson Ultrachrome K3 replacement (3800,4800,7800 etc.). There is talk of color gammut, black D-Max , different versions of Blacks, some blacks warmer than others etc. etc. My interest is what is very close to OEM . This...

It would be nice if in a bladder design, the valve part was somehow screwin/ screwout user replaceable. cheers

Good point, contact with air is minimal with the bladder. Not sure how to fix it - the ink manufacturers have to come up with some ideas to overcome or minimise this. cheers

I have both a Lyson type system and Pro-3800 I-Refill and can make some observations. Constant ink flow cartridge design has evolved to a point where maybe the bladder design is not as important or relevant as it used to be say 2 years ago. Why do Epson used a bladder ? To make it difficult to...

This is a great idea, it always churns up the ink after a cleaning cycle so it makes sense to have a little plastic circular disc-well and syringe it out manually. Many thanks indeed.

Being able to reset the maintenance tank with the I-3800 refill system is great, but the physical fiddling of removing the tank cover and replacing the sponge etc. can be a real nightmare. What we need is a drain tube/bottle system, or even syringing the ink out of the maintenance tank would be...

I have installed an Epson Pro 3800 I-fill system (the inkjetcarts version) with no major issues . I have followed the pharmacists tips on removing the cover and the velcro lid - all works fine. Apart from a major mistake by the supplier ( LM and M ink bottles were wrongly labelled), all has...

Hmm, I install a new Epson cart and all is OK, then I reinstall the reset cart and I still get the Non Genuine Error message. any ideas? cheers

Many thanks, my cart was at 13% - damn. cheers

My I-refill has just arrived. I tried to use the maintenance chip resetter to reset a chip- and just replace one cart - but now it registers as non genuine Epson tank Proceed Yes or No. Any ideas? thanks

many thanks pharmacist, I understand now. cheers
