Who has the best ink?


for your printer it is epson

with generic ink you do not know what you are getting at any point in
time because the relabeler will not disclose that information. they
also change their suppliers so what they sell is not consistent.

So? If your not using your printer for Gallery Quality Exhibition prints -
who cares?

Ignore the troll... He's using his classic "worst case" scenario scare
cr*p as per usual.

If you're after a recommendation then look at MIS associates,
Hobbicolors and cast around on nifty-stuff.com forums, stevesforums, and
more...

Avoid ebay on the whole and do your research..

Best of luck...

i do not know why martin is calling himself a troll. anyway MIS will
not disclose either on the phone or on their website what they are
selling. Neither will Hobbocolors. i called them and specifically ask
them. mis told be they are afraid their competitors will findout their
sources and the other is afraid their customers will desert them and buy
from their suppliers.

these are not a good reason not be be totally forthcoming with customer
queries.

besides you never know when they will change suppliers. epson printers
have a greater propensity to clog than other printers and they have a
permanent printhead so it is best to use the ink that the ink that is
designed for the heads.

They don't have to. MIS Associates, Inc. as well as WeInk, LLC. are
offical distributors of image specalists ink. This is disclosed on the
image specalist website. If you want Image Specalist ink, and don't
want to buy huge jugs, you know for a fact these two companies sell it
in the states.

http://www.inksupply.com
http://www.getinkexpress.com

But if you feel happier seeing a little logo, go with WeInk. You have
to buy 500 mL at a time though them,
besides you never know when they will change suppliers.

I don't know when they MIS associates or WeInk will change suppliers,
but I don't see why they would have to as the product is pretty good
and people ask for it by name. But in your conspiracy world I would
imagine i'd know the day the color changes and when they get unlisted
as an offical distributer, or if we ink takes their logo off their
site.

This is the type of misleading statements that only prove your lack of
professionalizim. Your statements have done more to benefit the
aftermarket industry than damage it. You have advertized the industry
over 5500 times in the last 12 months.
these are not a good reason not be be totally forthcoming with customer
queries.

have a greater propensity to clog than other printers and they have a
permanent printhead so it is best to use the ink that the ink that is

If you are looking for great aftermarket ink...you should buy MIS. They
have ink made for your printer.

I don't care about the printer at this stage any more. I just want to
use up the paper supplies but would prefer to use better quality ink. I
may switch to Canon later. At that time, I'll use a OEM ink because I
care about print quality - color matching as close as possible that I
think no third parties supplies can really match.
