The quality of the inks are very good though and the prints I get from the R1800 are outstanding. A necessity for sure, there is no way around buying these things, I just wish they were a little cheaper. It's how the printer companies really make their money. I cringe that it costs me $120 to replace all of my ink cartridges on my Epson R1800 and I never get as many prints as I think I should.
I don't have a problem using third-party inks on my cheap everyday printers. It's perfect for the Epson printer it's designed for. But for professional quality jobs on a pretty expensive (at least when we bought it a few years ago) Epson Photo R1800 -- genuine ink is the only way to go. I don't think this ink requires any comments. Its genuine from Epson, period.
Never use a cheaper brand, if you want great prints.Fred Griffing There are no substitutes for Epson inks they are the best.
If you do serious work and serious volume, genuine Epson ink is the ONLY way to go unless you want constant problems and headaches. I buy my Epson ink cartridges from Amazon.com because they have the lowest available price for genuine Epson cartridges and if you make sure you are buying from Amozon.com and not a sub-supplier, you can always get free freight.
Other cartridges never give the true color your printer needs. Buy the real stuff, not cheap imitations.
