That's brilliant. Thanks for the information. I'd be aiming for a matte paper. I wouldn't be doing any double sided printing. Can I go for generic 6 colour dye inks, too, that dont specify a particular printer brand?

I see where you're going on the fade issue. Basically, it's not a photo print business. The type of prints I'll be doing aren't the kind that will be hung on walls, or framed, or exposed to much light even. I won't be going for the cheapest of cheap inks. After some testing of the L1800...

The L1800 looks perfect for my needs. It would use a3 sheets but the print area used is just over a4. So if I'm printing solid colour with this machine and $ per litre dye inks at a medium density of ink, various colours used, 40 pages a day, selling 10 prints at about £4.50, as a side job...

It would be slightly larger than A4, so I was looking at an A3 printer. I was looking at the Epson EcoTank ET-14000 based on your recommendation of a CIS that's already built in. I doubt the print quality would be as good, using only 4 colours though, right?

Thanks for your speedy reply. I'd be opting for the cheap dye ink $ per litre, and wanting to do about 40 full A4 pages per-day of relatively solid block colour at a medium darkness. I wonder roughly how many prints I'd get out of that. Ideally I'd be selling A4 prints at about £4.50 for a...

Hi there! I gather a few of you have an Epson Artisan 1430, either with or without a CISS. I would like to know how many full A4 colour pages you could print before you'd need to refill the tanks? How much do you spend for how many prints? I'd like to buy one, but need to weigh up the costs...
