OK, here's the skinny:
There are whole industries built around using pigmented inks in what
started out as dye ink Epson printers.
Tshirt imprinters use pigmented inks in all kinds of Epsons.
Fine art printers use pigmented inks in all kinds of Epsons.
600, 640, 660, 740, 800, 820, 850, 880, 900, 900 Photo, 980, 1160,
1200, 1270, 1280, 1290, 1520, 3000, 5000, etc. and more etc. All those
come with OEM dye ink, and all have at some time had someone using
pigmented inks in them. Either myself or someone I have seen post
about it. And loads of Epsons that have pigmented inks get used with
3rd party dye inks such as MIS, or Spectrabright inks simply because
Epson OEM inks are so incredibly expensive.
Pretty much a general rule, if it is an Epson inkjet and it works, you
can use pigmented ink in it.
