I ask becasue I have "arrow" carts from Alotofthings.com which is supposed to use Formulabs inks, and the results are really purple shadows, and jaundice yellow skins.

Maybe I got a bad batch, maybe they have poor quality control and don't test the ink, maybe the 4 color inks just suck. I have no idea, but it's tinting images something awful.

Anyone with info on inks for Canon 4 color would be apprciated.

hey inky. I will be testing out some carts coming from alota soon. I'm semi-busy this week and when I have time I'll post. Please be patient b/c I'm really really new to all of this stuff and I may not be doing tests properly in the beginning.

Ok, good luck with them. My experience in a nutshell is they're ok for most things, but will really give you some greif with dark browns. Let us know how it goes.

I've got arrow carts from alotofthings but haven't tested them yet.
I am currently using refilled OEM carts, using the bulk ink i've got from alotofthings.
So far, I am satisfied with the results on photo printing.
I still have to wait before my OEM refilled carts fail before using the arrowjet carts i have on standby though.
