Speaking only for the way I do things, I mainly print on gloss photo paper and don't post anything outside (or inside for that matter). Looks like dye based is best for me.

I can't think of a time in over 50 years of being a shutter bug that I got a print wet. I'm not saying it has never happened, but I can't recall when.

Why would a printer be designed to use pigmented black but dye for the colors?

thanks, i got a 41

RE: Canon MP210. I bought a new Canon 51 ink cartridge. Although the info with the printer calls for a 31 or 41 cartridge, I understand that 31, 41 and 51 are all kissing cousins with the only difference being the amount of ink a cartridge holds. The MP210 will not recognize the 51 cartridge...

I'm getting a new printer. The one I am replacing was a top of the line dye based printer, at the time I bought it several years ago. Now, all of the top of the line printers I find are pigment ink users. I'm a bit concerned about using pigment ink with its pitfalls but the only upper class...

Is there a system which uses cartridges that do not need to be removed to refill?

Could I not use dye based ink instead of pigment ink in the PRO9500?

The PRO 9500, which I am also considering, has 2 types of black and a gray.

I have two printers. An Epson R2400 and a HP 7160. Each uses two types of black ink and two types of gray. I may have to replace the R2400 because no one seems to be able to fix it. I used to have a Canon s900 and liked it, so I'm looking at Canon's PRO9000 as a possible replacement. Here's what...
