Which one would you recommend? Canon MP160 or Epson CX3900, they're about the same price where I live.
I need it to be easily and cheaply refillable. I don't print photos.

The CX3900 seems to be easily refillable and I can also buy non-genuine cartridges for cheap. While the MP160 has a printhead on the cartridge so there's no cheap cartridges... will there ever be one in the future? How likely is it that I will need to buy another cartridge for the Canon?

Also I've read that with the Epson, it can become clogged if I don't print for a while. If I only print once a week, will this be okay?
Also can I use dye-based ink for the Epson (will it damage the printer)?

Thanks a lot.
