Lyson inks for Epson 2200?

I understand that Lyson now offers bulk ink and bulk ink kits for the Epson
2200. A google doesn't reveal this, however; the 2100 is listed but the
offering is dye rather than pigment inks, but nothing on the 2200. As
Lyson is a UK outfit, one wonders if they expect one to understand that
their 2100 is identical to the US 2200.

Has anyone any knowledge/experience with this? If so, please share!

Thanks,

Bill Tallman

European 2100 model is equivalent to 2200 US model.
Lyson has pigmented inks for 2100/2200. I've never seen/tested.

Hello Bill,

I use the Epson 2100 and I am looking for a CIS-system for it. I am
also interested in experience others made. I did not yet decide
whether I go the Lyson or the Mediastreet way. I hesitate to spend
about 500 Eur here in germany for the mediastreet CIS-system and
another 100 Eur for a cleaning set. Besides the money there is the
problem with the icc-profiles. I suppose I need special profiles for
this kind of ink. Good printer profile software is expensive, because
you need some kind of spectrometer. The results with cheaper
solutions, for example profile prism, that use a scanner instead of a
"spectrometer" are much better than using no profile. I am still
learning to use this software, but up to now my "homemade" profiles
for the Ilford or Tetenal papers do not have the quality of the
profiles supplied by the manufacturers. But the results are much
better than just using the Epson profiles or using no profiles at all.
Since you use linux, the "missing profile problem" might be even
bigger since the manufacture profiles are normally made for the
original driver (i.e. windows) and I know of no native printer
profiling software for linux. Maybe profile prism runs with Wine. I
did not test it yet.

I'm using the Lyson continuous ink system on my 2100 and the results are
excellent, especially since I had profiles made for the two papers I
normally use. Since I've had the profiles I haven't had to reprint
anything as they have been right first time and its nice not having to
change cartridges every few sheets,

Just in case anyone reading this is about to buy one....

Note that the 2200 doesn't have some of the goodies that come with the 2100.

Sorry, didn't check back soon enough on this...

What goodies are you citing?
