Hi,

Can anyone tell me what is the cheapest A3 printer with a bulk ink system?

I use a Ricoh GX e3300n at the moment, I would like to sell that and upgrade to bigger printer. Any thoughts on what that is worth second-hand?

Thanks
Dan

Ok thanks. Where did you buy the ink system from and what ink do you use and where do you buy that?

LARGE refillable carts HERE -

ordinary bulk inks you can get anywhere online TBH....averaging from £9.99 - 19.99 incl del for 4x 100ml bottles

Sublimation inks you can get online as well bud - but you will have to source that one for yourself i,m afraid.
Here is one example -

And they aint cheap no matter where you buy them, compared to ordinary inks.

Sub inks range from average of £60 for 125ml incl vat/del and depending on yer printer, you need 4/6/8 of these !!

The value will depend hugely on how much ink you have left in the system.

The inks are about 70% full, any thoughts on what I could sell it for with that much ink in them?

To buy 70% full cartridges x4 would cost around £130/135 so that is where the bulk of your value is. How old is the printer and how many prints has it done? Presumably your on your second or more set of cartridges so factor all this in to your asking price.
