Printing Ink

Postby USINSPAIN » Tue Sep 15, 2009 4:14 pm

I have a Epsonstylus PHOTO R285 printer and I need ink, original ink seems very expensive is there a good alternative that can be purchased here in Spain I live near Benalmadena.
Thank you

Youve just missed out - ALDI had both black and coloured refill kits on offer for less than 5E.
These were dye based, not pigment based, inks.
If your quick you might still find some left

HI USINSPAIN,
It depends on how much printing you're doing, if not a lot I would go for original replacements.
You may have a refill24® franchise in your town , they will refill your original cartridges.
All my best learning experiences start with a problem I need to solve.

It amazes me how expensive some of these "cheap" inks are.

The Eurocartridge price for a set of 6 for my Epson R200 is €24.50

I buy the same set in the UK for £3.45 - unfortunately the shipping costs to Spain are high but I just get someone to bring them out.

I have used The Cartridge Connection here in La Cala for 4 years now, and found them to be very good.
