I just come across CISS (Continuous Ink Supply System) in a photography forum. It seems like many of them (photographers) do print a lot at home, and CISS is the way to save printing cost. I think it is safe to say that genuine inks (from the manufacturers) are expensive, and even genetic inks (from third party) is not really that cheap if you get the one with cartridges. Ink refills can make a mess.

It seems like that CISS is the solution for those who print colour a lot on inkjet. According to this web site, http://www.rihac.com.au/ , it seems like installing CISS on your inkjet is not that hard.

This is how CISS look like (image stolen from the website):


Take my case for example. If I buy one set of inks (6 colours) for my Epson R230 with the recommended price is AU$19.95 each, it ends up to be the same price as one CISS set (with 100 ml inks each), AU$120. That is definitely a huge saving if I print a lot (not counting the paper cost.)

I thought I would just mention CISS here in SillyDog701, and see if anyone is interested.
