Epson with the eco tank. It's like 12 bucks for several years of ink and the thing just works.

What ink are you getting for $12?? Even allowing for quite a bit of poetic licence, this seems ridiculously cheap.

[–] The_v 9 points 8 months ago (1 children)

It's just a bottle of ink that you pour into the tank. You can find generic ones for $7-8.

My wife prints 1-2 boxes of paper per year in color. About 10% of those are photograph quality. A laser printer wouldn't cut it for the photographs so I got her an ecotank.

The tanks hold 130ml of ink so they last a long time. The largest HP cartridge held like 49ml of ink of I recall correctly. Most of them had under 10ml.

If you print infrequently or an absolute ton (like an office) a laser printer is better. If you print a case or two of paper per year and photographs, the inkjet is better.

Oh, I know how they work - we have an ET-8550. I just didn't realise generic ink could be so cheap. My wife sells prints of her photographs and artwork so is a bit "cautious" about her ink and only uses genuine Epson at $25 per 70ml. I just looked on Amazon and found that generic ink can be had for around $6-7 per 70ml ($40 for a 6-pack) - wow!

That investment in a squid and giant aquarium is paying for itself, I tells ya! 😛
