Re: why use QTR?

2007-06-08 by Daniel Jackson

One major factor in QTR's favour: you can use MIS inks. By my calculation,
they cost about 15c/ml, compared to 60c/ml or more for Epson ink. And 
they're presumably more archival, and produce results at least as good as
ABW or better. But MIS says no carts for the 3800 yet, although they're
promising them soon. Maybe we can all press them to hurry up a bit...

And one other thought. If you print B&W, why would you want to spend $
on all those colour cartridges that are hardly being used?
