What is the best site for generic printer ink?

[BChico]

I have two printers an Epson 740 and 900. The ink for these are 30 dollars for color and black each. Everytime i buy ink it ends up costing me around 240 bucks. I saw this site today http://www.printpal.com/ and they sell ink for around 10 per cartrige. This would save me alot of money. My question is, will i lose any quality from going to this? Any other suggestions about ink, so that i could get it cheaper?\

Thanks

The quality of generic ink is pretty good now, but of course not same as genuine ink from the printer manufacturer.

Ok what kind of quality can i expect to lose? Vivid colors?

Thanks

a little bit, you can see the difference.
I only use inkjet printer for casual printing - driving directions, rebate forms, etc., so generic ink is ok.
for photo, I use online print photo service, that's cheaper and better quality - dye-sublimation printing on photo paper.

I have found sometimes that the gerneric inks actualy gave me better colors then what the origionals do

I was using generic ink on my old Epson 600 for 2 years here in the UK the quality was excellent, too bad I can`t get generic inks yet for my new Epson C70 printer .

Checkout www.priceless-inkjet.com, I hear their service is excellent and I'm sure you will find what you need there.

I got my Epson C60 ink carts from Megatoners. $12.95 for black and $13.50 for color...basically 1/2 cost of OEM carts.

For the past year and a half, I have been buying printer-specific ink for my cheap old cannon bjc 5100 at Atlas Copy.
I refil a $50 black pigment cartridge for about $2.50 of their ink, and I refil a $10 black ink cartridge for literally pennies, and a $25 3-color cartridge for pennies (this cannon has 3 cartridges in it).
Great printer-specific ink. Never had a problem with either the ink or Atlas Copy.

Hey, you might be the one that recommended them to me I haven't even used them yet (my current cartridge that came with the printer is about 45% full), but the three B&W carts that I ordered came packaged nicely and vacuum sealed in some metallic stuff like the OEM carts (got here in about 3 days). I guess I'll see how good they are when my current cart gets down to "E"
