    Ink Cartridges?

    Anyone got any good link for getting ink carts from? Should I get the manufactures official carts or are compatible ones fine?

    Printer is a Epson Photo 900.

    Thanks.

    get originals. compatibles have a tendancy to dry out whilst in the pringter mechanism, clogging the printer heads - which on an Epson means you need to bin the whole damn printer

    and i use http://www.systeminsight.co.uk/ for my carts, but there's very little difference in prices for originals between stores, at least there is with the canon carts I buy
