I was browsing through EBAY the other day looking for large farmat Ultrachrome K3 ink to buy when I saw 220ml light gray genuine Epson T6037 cart for $10.00 plus free shipping!
Well as you can imagine, I hit that buy button and paid so fast I didn't realize it was for, though GENUINE K3...... an Empty Epson T6037 220 ml cart! I immediatelly submmitted a cancellation request which was accepted by the seller and they refunded me the $10 the next day.
However.... the shipping dept apparently did not get the cancelation notice and I ended up recieveing the cart today! I contacted the seller and asked them what to do to return it but they instead apologized and told me to just keep it of discard it. AMAZING!
So I just happen to have had another identical T6037 ( 220ML ) from which I had aspirated all the LK ink to use on my T58 modified now refillable OEM 3800 carts and on the R2880 and R2400.
I noticed that my "empty" felt a lot lighter than their "empty".
So after weighing mine which came in at 146 grams, I weighed theirs which came in at 210 grams. Well I aspirated a full 64cc of Light Black ink which cost me zero. : )
Another way of looking at it is, these large carts leave a ton of ink behind when the reach "EMPTY"!
These empties commonly sell for about $8 for an lot of 5 mixed colors. Yes I am crazy!
