Check out (Red River Paper), they seem to have good prices and excellent papers. Hope that helps you. Outoftheinkwell.

I also am thinking about the Canon Pro1 but also will wait till the counter chip fiasco is resolved. I have been using Epson printers but am very unhappy with their blatant insistence in building in obsolesce. I want to know exactly what Canon does regarding these practices, or doesn't do before...

Thanks guys for all the excellent advice and information. I have used the same( Claria/type) inks exclusively and have had really good results until I used the same ink in a cartridge in a remanufactured OEM cartridge, now the prints are just off from what they were and noticible but not...

Is there an easy way to control color and set up a printer to give reliable true colors for photograph's? I don't have a good grasp of exactly what to do to achieve this so I would like any and all suggestions by the more experienced among the members on this task! My Epson 1400 was doing a...

I haven't seen this addressed so here goes. My Epson 1400 sits facing me with the ink bottles on the left of the printer and works just fine but in looking at various sites dealing with setting this printer up with a CIS system I often see the bottles sitting on the right of the printer. Both...

I have both an Artisan 725 and an Epson 1400 and no blotches so far. When I got the Artisan I saw a lot of complaints about the paper feed on this model malfunctioning but have had very little trouble with mine so far. It is the type of paper tray that you pull completely out to fill and I can...

I found nothing online to answer this question however I use 079 remanufactured OEM cartridges that I get for under five dollars apiece that work perfectly and I also have refillable damper cartridges with a RATF (Refill All To Full) chip that I have used before with no problems with a good...

Simon It might be a fluke but it was always a problem with yellow, I tried to figure it out and the only thing I came up with was that the parking pad was very narrow and the yellow was on one edge so I thought it might not get the same protection from drying out that the other colors had! So...

I don't know if anyone else has had a problem like this with this particular Epson printer but if so please share your experience. When I first started using Epson Stylus printers I got myself an Epson C-88 and at first thought it was a pretty good performer. Over a period of time I started...

Lin! Sorry man, I didn't mean to ignore your request for a picture of my RATF chip. Just been doing other things and haven't been reading the posts. I do very much appreciate your offer to take a look at those chips but the fact is I already moved on to another procedure and those parts have...

Opps! Forgot to add...I stayed with the dye based ink, along with Costco papers I get good and long lasting prints and no clogs! Just make sure the ink is good quality.

The 1400 is a great printer. We have had one for about 3 years with a CIS system with zero head clogs and all good prints until lately when we got the Epson shutdown notice. We are still using the same printer after buying remanufactured OEM carts we found for about $4.50 each. When those are...

Cop reads "Breathalyzer and sees (CYMK) . "Oh, you must be a member of Nifty Stuff".

Remember when chips didn't exist on cartridges? Printers worked just fine and I never heard of anyone destroying a printer for lack of a chip counter. As for all the warnings about ink filling the ink tanks and spilling over onto the furniture, I never heard of that happened either! I have seen...

I understand that after years of saying CIS systems were no good and would void the Epson printer guarantees if installed in Epson printers, now Epson makes their own CIS systems using the collapsible bag method and the OEM inks are cheaper. Well cheaper than what they offer in the cartridges I...

My head is buzzing with all the in's and outs about this stuff! May I request that you more knowledgeable members post a simple overview ( if possible) of all this along with a straightforward check list of sorts to get rookie's like me on track. Maybe there is no simple way to explain this...

Thank you so much for that timely warning. I may have had that happen to me but I'm not really sure. My printer in question is an older model Epson 1400 so my problem may or may not be firmware connected, I'm just not positive. Please bare with me as my computer/printer knowledge is not the best...

I'm not sure if cutting the chips off an Epson cart would work, I was thinking since the RATF chips are supposed to copy the Epson chip they should work but more is going on there I think. I did clean and re-install the RATF chip that worked on my 1400 before but it didn't work so I pulled it...

Ok Just got through removing my CIS system and adding Remanufactured OEM NBR.79 Cartridges in my 1400 Epson and the good news is they work and demonstrate that there is nothing at all wrong with my basic printer, the prints are the usual beautiful prints we always get from our Epson 1400 model...

I used to use a waste ink tank but now I just let the pads get soaked and when that is really bad usually after 3 or 4 resets I slip a pan under the printer like the ones you use to catch oil under your car. That works well until the printer starts floating then it's harder to type on the...
