Epsom pro 9600

Hi everyone, I have a Epson wide format printer, does anyone use the no genuine replacement cartridges or refill there old with compatible ink, the price difference is quite staggering.

Thanks in advance for your comments

I always always refill old cartridges. There are a lot of people who say it's not as high quality ink so it will run out faster, but even with this being the case I strongly believe that it is cheaper, and I have never personally had it do any harm.

Personally I would only use genuine cartridges.
Many moons ago we tried cheap replacement cartridges and apart from the question of their light-fastness, the colour gamut was definitely different.

It does depend on the quality of ink you are putting in there, some have a wider colour gamut than the epson inks and the same blue wool rating of 6.

Some inks are truly awful, and will produce carp.

I would recommend http://www.advancedinkjetsystems.com/index.php they are light fast and wider gamut than the epson (I have personally tested this) also much cheaper, custom profiles are a must though.

I have also tested Lyson inks which were not as good as the AIS.

Thanks IFGL that's a great help, I take there is no problem in re setting the chip with the resettler

I would like to thanks IFGL for putting me onto Inkjet systems. I went down there and purchased 7 replacement cartridges and they work a treat, also they are great people to deal with, I strongly recommend them.
