    Thinking of opening a webstore???

    If you solicited me, here's my first question. What are my advantages buying from you and not the 100's of Direct Vendors? I would suggest you don't give up your day job.:thumbsup

    Good Chinese company to buy pigment and dye ink from?

    IMHO, I recommend NOT buying ink from out of your country. You have no recourse if you get the wrong ink. Different printers use different formulas of ink. Chinese ink may not be a perfect match. I've been using CISS and refillable cartridges for 15-20 years and have always used American ink.

    Newbie Question

    Here's my 2cents. Prior to purchasing a printer here's a little research to do. 1-Check what # cartridges are used. 2-Look for Refillable cartridges with ARC [auto reset chips]. You buy the ink and refill yourself, it's easy. That's the printer to buy. If that's not an option then go for the...

    Arc Chips Not Working

Yellow seems to be a problem for years, chips or no chips. 20+ years of Epson printers, yellow needed attention [cleaning nozzles, print heads]. I now use HP and refill, yellow is Full...

    Hello from Southern U.S.

    Before you buy any printer, check for refillable carts with ARC chips. I recommend refillable carts and not a CISS. Tanks, tubing etc. seems to always develop some kind of problem. Research and then Research again.

    Artisan 1430 cartridge errors

    I have a HP OfficeJet Pro 8720. I hoped I could get refillable carts but after months of researching found that the ARC chips are a problem. I have been refilling the original carts with a system I purchased direct from Korea. It works really well without any hassle. You need to search the link...

    Artisan 1430 cartridge errors

    Rather than wasting time & MONEY, why not purchase a Refurbished 1430 printer from Epson for $199. It's a No-brainer. Although I love Epson printers I stopped using them after 20+ years. Check it out here...
