Using generic printer ink?

I know that Epson/Canon want you to use their own brand of ink because it works better, but can I use the generic ink...it's approaching 75% cheaper!!

Using generic printer ink?

The ink that Epson (for that matter HP, Kodak, Canon etc.) sell is a proprietary formulation. Most ink jet cartridges use heaters (one per nozzle) to nucleate (boil) the ink to eject the drop to the treatise. Non-compatible inks may corrode or contaminate the heater surface. Since their fluidic properties are also recurrently different (surface tension, viscosity, density, vapor pressure,surfactant / humectant level to name a few) it is potential that performance will suffer.



The nest egg are more like 50 to 60%. The New Kodak printers use restock tanks that already cost what generics cost and are made specificaly for their printers, by Kodak. (see below)

You can use generics, you could also merely refill your ink cartriges, the solely reason they say-so it works better is cause they breed money off of epson/cannon ink, but they dont bad generic.
Just FYI, you can take it for granted that ALL ink is generic. As you might slickly determine, if you think in the region of it, neither Epson nor Canon produce ink. Why would they?



Feel free to use whatever ink you close to. If you save 75% satisfactory, soon you'll be able to replace the printer if something go wrong. I can't wait until the 'dollar store' carry ink!
You can but you may not get as well-mannered a quality portrait when printing photos.



If you are wanting to print out high aspect photos it is best to use the manufacturer treatise and ink.



For draft stuff then third knees-up ink or refils are fine.
