Just a quick note, popped to my local sainsburys last night to get a couple of bits, at the end of the stationary isle there was a basket full of different printer inks.
They had the full pack of genuine epson r300 inks for £15. (T0487 multipack)
These inks normally cost me £60 from staples. They had quiet a lot and I only brought 1 pack, may go back this evening and get more.
Just letting you know because R300 owners will know how expensive these inks are. :)
just get some refillable carts off ebay and some ink bottles. its probably cost me £1 so far this year on inks!

thats what i got and they are mint m8, they auto reset when the ink counter reaches 0, just remember to top them up every now and then. i bought extra inks but the inks they come with lasted me ages and ages. the quality of the ink imho is exactly the same as originals. ive done some really nice pics with these
I always thought the quality of them type of cartridges werent as good. My cousin has a continuous system in his r300 and when printing at high quality it didnt look as good. How do you fill them ones up?
syringe m8, and ive never had quality problems, well impressed with it.
I use a ciss on my Epson PX650, Do shed loads of prints and probably refil the system every 12 months at the cost of £10
No loss in quality of the prints either,
We are actually starting up a new ink suppliers wholesale company - watch this space.....
wheres the deal? wheres your local sainsburys?
I hope they do those for the Epson R800 mate, costs over £110 for a set of originals.Quote:

Or you could try out the helpful advice from Det & others re DIY refilling?

Did you not read the first post, sainsburys seem to be having some sort of clearance on inks, a set of inks that normally cost £60 they have for £15. 75% off is quiet a big reduction, that was the "__kin deal" I was referring to. It was probably a nationwide deal as a friend of mine saw them in his local sainsbury as well.Quote:

Hope that clears things up for you :p
