Epsons are a good design but they fail on their princes, they should
sell their ink cheaper. I have an old Epson Stylus color Pro and am
very happy with it, cheap and big cartridges (the compatible ones of
course) and never clogs.


I have an Epson I don't use so much now. I bought a sack each of Epson brand
ink on eBay - I figure the printer will die before I use it all.





Yeah, I've got an Epson C-80 that's partially jammed up!! It won't do
black @ all and is iffy on the magenta! Seems that cyan & yellow are OK.
No amount of cleaning cycles do anything except use up the new
cartridges I installed.

The printer I'm using now that works is an old HP Deskjet 420 I bought @
Goodwill. Other than having to replace the carts here & there, it hasn't
missed a beat (although the setup of using only one cart @ a time --
black or tri-color -- is a bit odd; I use it only for text, BTW).
