[QUOTE="bryan.mahendra, post: 206121, member: 7583"] Well, I have to say the price of current inkjet cartridges are outrageous; and especially the colored ones. The only solutions today would either be investing in a good CISS (w/ pigment ink) or a trusted compatible ink cartridge (if you're living in the USA, cotsco accepts refills). I live in 3rd world country in Asia, where the dominant printer company is Epson. Since a few years ago, they have been releasing an original CISS printer called the L series. I have to say, it is the cheapest ink/page price rate in the world with theoretically <1p per page (that's 4000bk/6000color; whole package estimates 30 usd). The L series isn't popular outside Asia/India, mainly because outside the regions ink cartridges dominate to rake in profit. The only down sides to the printer is it has no autoduplex and its speed is quite par. Hell, if it had higher duty/work load per cycle it would be the ultimate OEM inkjet printer. The only thing this company (Epson) has to do is to implicate the CISS to their WorkForce models. In 2015, they did release inkjet printer prototype, the RIPS series which can handle 75,000 pages per cartridge/in this case bag, the printer price is pretty high although fair for the ink itself. I just wish printer/ink companies would realize this, how inks are really burdening customer's budget. The ultimate printer for me if they actually could marry an HP officejet pro X with the prices of EPSON's CISS ink, that would be the shit. [/QUOTE]
