Digital BW, The Print

The printer will use a significant amount of ink during the initial "charging" of the print 
mechanisms. This will use a larger portion of the first cartridges installed than subsequent 
cartridges. I would check out Red River for the ink cartridges (www.redrivercatalog.com) 
since they are significant cheaper than office supply stores or Epson.com.
