    Three dead Canons. What next?

    Been using an Epson Artisan 1430 and refillable cartridges from https://bestinkandtoner.com/for about 4 years. Can print up to 13X19 and on CD/DVD's. Have had zero problems with either printer or the inks. The printed discs look very professional. "Try it, you'll like it!"

    Artisan 730 with firmware update CISS

    Greetings from Western PA: Have a CISS equipped R280 that was an absolute BEAR to set up & but once I got it going, has been a workhorse churning out hundreds of DVD's & photos. It sadly has died, but I found a brand new, still in the box 280. I am putting off enduring the grief I had with...
