Thanks, Gordon I'm aware that you said B&W and also wanted an inkjet. If you intend only B&W then the cheapest route would be a laser printer. They are by far cheaper to run than an inkjet that you are not refilling cartridges and very dependable. They may cost a bit more initially but price per page pays for the machine quickly if you do a lot of printing. To find a good quality one look at the user ratings on Newegg.com for comparisons. Someone in this group may also have a recommendation. If you want an inkjet solution then the Epson C88+ with refillable sponge cartridges using ARC (auto reset chips) is a cheap and qualitywise way to go . Refilling comes out to about $1.25 a refill using good quality ink. Spongeless cartridges are both quick and easily refilled. By the way, the C88+ uses the same size cartridges as the R1800, and you could be used with your current machine. I've been running my R1800 for five years this way and also refill our C88+ printers for my daughters. If you want suppliers I'm fine to give you some names. -- Jan Alter |

Just GOOGLE for refillable ink cartridge to refill your own then you can enjoy your Epson R1800. Or you can go for CISS, or you can go for remanufactured ink etc.. How long have they been re-manufacturing ink, Joel? Who does it? -- - Nicolaas |
