Continuous Ink Supply Systems (or simply CISS) provide significant cost and time savings to users who print regularly to paper or direct to disc surfaces. Instead of replacing cartridges, the continuous ink supply system provides ink to the printer which can be topped up with compatible ink only when needed. The system includes four cartridges which are connected to four seperate ink reservoirs. The reservoirs are vacuumed with air - this pushes the ink through the tubing and into the head of the printer supplying a smooth and constant rate of ink flow, allowing for superb, consistant printing all the time. Because the cartridge chips do not need to be reset, no chip re-setter is required.
The kit itself is very simple to setup, however a setup guide is provided with the kit that provides you with a simple explanation of how to get started - you may alternatively view the example setup guide below:
CISS Manual [.pdf, 300kb]
Each ink container holds the equivalent of around 7 original cartridges, and are pre-filled to get you started. Once you have used the initial supplied dye-based ink the tanks can be easily refilled with the compatible ink also available at Disk Depot. You only need to top up on colours that require it (there is a guide line on the containers to warn you when your ink is running low). The kit is supplied with black, cyan, magenta and yellow 80ml ink containers.
If you are a high-volume user then a Continuous Ink Supply System will save you save, effort and most importantly, money!
The system includes:
- 4x 80ml ink reservoirs (1x cyan, 1x magenta, 1x yellow, 1x black)
- 4 reservoir caps
- 4 CIS chipped print heads
- 4 refill syringes
- fitting kit
- full details instructions on CD-ROM
** Please note that cartridge sequence varies from printer to printer. On one printer they may run Black, Cyan, Magenta, Yellow. On another they may run Black, Magenta, Yellow, Cyan. When installing, please ensure to match the correct CIS cartridge as the sequence of your printer. **
