Re: Carbon Inks in UK

2015-08-04 by brian_downunda@...

I think there used to be an Australian piezography distributor some years ago, but with the ease of international shipping it's hard for someone to be able to add enough of a margin to cover the costs of running a business and also make a profit. There's also the issue of keeping stock, as there are seven shades, five inksets (with some common shades), and three or four bottle sizes.

It's not clear to me either what the number of users in a country would tell you, or what advantage you see. Most interaction occurs online, either here in the Yahoo forums or on the InkJetMall one. It is useful to be able to see prints, but there are print swaps / exchanges for that.

There is one UK user who was posting on the IJM forum. He was having ink issues (I think he accidentally mixed them), and received support to diagnose and remedy this problem. There would be quite a few others I imagine, but I don't keep track of locations, and some people don't say where they are.
