I had to read twice to understand what a single use printer was: I was thinking about a disposable printer that you throw away when the ink runs out.:lol:
You should have called it mono-functional or single-function.
With some care you can refill them until your printer will brake down. The only thing is NOT to let them be completely empty and reset the chip above 15%. I suggest to refill all the carts when one of the carts are approaching 20% level, before a large printing job. Yes you are right the Epson...
G53 ecotank bottles is the way to go for Chromalife 100+ faderesistance. Other Canon ecotank dye inks are much worse and some of them are hardly better than "good" quality aftermarket inks.
Qimage has a particular mode called auto: that chooses between perceptual or relative colorimetric with the extra option to enable BPC.....I am not sure how the software chooses between those two rendering intents based on what algorithm.
I think Lothman on this forum uses Pigmera GX. I made profiles for him some time ago and I was really impressed by the blackness of their photo and matte black. The prints are very good and have a nice gloss and gamut is very good.
In the past before Brexit I ordered from the UK via ebay: now after the Brexit I can understand, but Europrint has its head quarters in Poland and and shipping to Germany or Belgium should not make any difference for Amazon or Ebay in terms of shipping, because I could order from the UK as well...
Maybe you can contact them and ask how somebody from Belgium can order from them, a "famous" person from a very well known printer and ink website who is not able to purchase from Europrint, because they do not want to ship to Belgium....Maybe you can convince them to ship to me.
I send them an email and their response was: NO SHIPPING to Belgium....you have a solution for me ?
Maybe teleportation possible ?
Same with ebay as well: NO shipping to Belgium. I send them email as well and the answered they do no ship to Belgium.
I am not sure but maybe the temporary outlet shop of Aldi in Leuven (Louvain) might be source of the Netbit/Expertiz paper. They may still have some stock there. Unfortunately too far away for me.
