Epson vs. Ricoh ink cost

[uk1simon]

yeah I know, they won't. You buy this printer and the first thing you need to do is to fork out £160 for a new set of carts, but that's the way it is.

Thanks Red5, good stuff, really helpful

[Stitch Up]

is it worth to add that first set of cart wont last long???

Yup and that there's an ever increasing number of Ricoh printers being destroyed by the use of Subli inks!

Has anybody worked out the price for Epson?

[Paul]

somone said once it is £1 per A4 printed full colour. but dont know how it was worked out.

same price as BSM m8, dont forget VAT and delivery charges.

We are £155 + vat on a full set of 4 when bought as a full set, not £160 Plus you'll get loyalty points worth at least £1.50 when bought online if you have registered and use you customer login, which is all straightforward.

I have use both D120 with cis system and ricoh, i feel if you are not using it several times a week you are better off with the ricoh as i found the d120 which is epson to clog up and sometimes hard to get all the colours to come through. But you may be using it a lot. didnt have any probs with ricoh at all.
