Just for Information:
I mailed OCP when they can offer inks for the R3000. They stated that other things have higher priority at the moment and that they won't offer inks for the Epson R3000 "in near futur".
Do I have to use the original Epson cartridges to initialise the printer or could this be done with the refillable cartridges. If I could sell the sealed original epson cartridges this would probably pay me a set of ink and refillable cartridges.

works on the autoreset chip fitted cartridges from Mikling (chubs380 on ebay). So I can reset all the cartridges when refilling and don't have...
Hi Wolfgang,
very appreciated I'll stay tuned. Did you also use TPI paper from Conrad ElektroniK? I like their semi gloss a lot (R2400, IS inks).

I also put a silicone hose inside the tank (from the end of the brass tube to the bottomof the tank) and always kept a liquid level high enough to prevent drying. I'm 100% shure that this has nothing to do with drying out.
I think the chemical reaction, as pharmacist described, is the reason...
Hi all,
I'm running an Epson R2400 with 3rd party refillable cartridges and Image Specialists inks. I converted the printer with an externa wast ink tank. Because cheap to get an very handsome I use a fuel tank of model aircraft for this purpose. In order to connect the flexible rubber hoses...
I dare to ask again ;) are there any refillable cartridges which can be reset from the user? For example when they were refilled when they were still 50% full.
Can the original chips be removed, put on the refillable cartridges and be reset by a resetter. Or can original epson cartridges be...
Have you found a source for pimented third party ink for the 9500? or refillable cartridges?
That's why I took an Epson A3 printer, much better avalaibility of third party stuff.
My reply wasn't meant as an offend and on a first view of the small pictures they look very the same. And not everyone rips off the lable to look at at internals. :cool:
I have a set of cartridges from you. I have problems of inserting the rubber plug of the vent hole. At about 70% depth the...
Hmh if those cartridges are so bad why do you still sell them on your ebay shop?

Earning my living with sealing techology I have to say that the plugs have are poor design, they...
Thanks pharmacist, I also found this thread. I think I have to flip a coin whether to switch to OCP (cheaper) ir Image specialists (a little better).
By the way I suppose the author johnpeeay in dpreview also reads this forum, because he also recommends TPI paper from conrad.de...
Mikling you showed excellent BW Prints!
But is there any need for a special printing software? How can the grey shade be exact when the printer thinks to use Cyan but there is a grey ink in the cyan cartridge? So the grey ramp on your test print looks fine but I don't understand why.
Ho quite some echo ;-), it is an alcalic soap not an oven spray for burnt residues. It is a professional cleaner for gastronomy. Of corse they do not recommend it to use it as cosmetic ;-)
I often used it without gloves and never had any skin irritations, but certainly it is better to avoid...
Hello,
some months ago I switched from dye printer to an epson r2400 and due to the good reported results in this forum I use Image Specialist inks.
In order to see the behavior of the prints on misuse:
I dripped water on them (TPI-luster paper). no reaction
I drowned them -> no reaction ->...
