Product Description

No more worrying about running out inks or those messy cartridges replacement. 100% compatible with your Epson printer. Our continuous ink system fits Epson Stylus Photo 1400 Printer with UV resistant dye base ink MADE IN USA, not the cheap imported ink with no UV resistant or low UV resistant. Our UV resistant ink allows you to keep your printed photos from fading for a long time. We also have high quality control for components including ink line, cartridges, and chips. Other brands have little or no quality control which will end up costing you wasted time and money.

Other brands are made w/ cheaper foggy finish individual plastic pieces that are put together. Once the system is installed on your printer, you'll never have to replace or remove cartridges. When you run low on inks, all you have to do is to refill by using our easy to pour refill bottles. The volume of this ink system is about 12-15 times more than your OEM cartridges. All installation accessories and installation instructions are included. The actual installation takes about 5-10 minutes. You have 30 days for exchange or return from purchase date w/ original conditions. The system has 1 year warranty.

Customer Reviews

I purchased this Ink system in late February having heard here and there that bulk ink was a way around the ludicrous cost of Epson branded ink.

I'll admit it was a bit of a hassle to get it working right, but at the end of the day, the few hours it took to get the tubes safely routed out of the printer were absolutely worth it. After three months of printing several photo-quality documents per day (Letter or larger, most Tabloid or Super-B sized) as well as transparencies for graphic design projects and double sided full bleed printer spreads for small pamphlets and magazines, only one color (Light Cyan) is running low.

Some benefits that are not addressed in the description: When a cartridge gets low (according to the Epson Utility), it resets at about 10% capacity to 100% capacity and runs the print head through a cleaning cycle. This keeps everything nice and neat. I've only had to adjust/clean/realign the print head a couple of times, and only because of very slight streaking almost invisible to the naked eye.

This system, unlike many, allows the lid to be closed, given the tubes are installed appropriately.

Drawbacks:

As another owner has reported, the system seems to overprint Cyan and light Cyan. It's quite obvious, now that these are the two cartridges that need replacement first. It's also rather clear when printing "Black and White" images - they generally end up with a cool tint, sometimes rather severe. Blacks are very rich and dense, but middle and dark grays tend to shift slightly to cyan or cyan and yellow. Compensating in the drivers with less cyan and yellow, it is possible to eliminate this effect. No other colors seem to be flawed, and the same vibrant gamut can be achieved with the off-brand ink as Epson's own.

The directions provided with the system are some of the worst I have seen. Many of the photos aren't even of the Epson 1400, and might as well be omitted entirely. Several steps are misleading or unclear, and ultimately, encourage the system to be set up in a way that causes the tubes to rub on the paper exactly where ink has just be printed. My final solution involved using some IKEA cable management zip-ties and adhesive brackets to create a bridge over the main opening in the printer and replace the "T-Bracket" that is supplied with most CIS systems. I also added a few felt pads along the tubing where it was rubbing against non-moving parts of the printer so that the friction and abrasion wouldn't wear through or cause it to catch.

Overall: This has been a fantastic product, and I have recommended it to all fellow design students. It's a perfect way to cut costs during school, and likely into the professional world. With only the ink provided with the system, I've saved hundreds (4 to 5 sets of cartridges = $400+), and with a new set of bottles, that bulk savings ought to continue for quite some time. Even if the printer or system fails now, it's paid for itself, twice over.

Buying this cis was the best thing a graphic or 3d artist that prints a lot needs.

It came very fast, I had questions before I bought it, and they emailed me right away and answered all my questions.

I did have a little trouble understanding how to install the system, I emailed them, and they got back to me with in hours, ready to help.

I gave them a five star, because the system is great and prints beautifully, and the value was the best I have seen.

However, after saying that the manual was just horrible.
