Continuous Ink System Epson R265 / R285/ R360 / RX560 / RX585 / RX685

If you're interested in saving money on your printing cost then we recommend you read on. The continuous ink system is a revolutionary new product that can offer massive savings on the money you spend printing. Regardless if you're a light or heavy printer the unique design of this continuous ink system is guaranteed to save you're hard earned cash. The system works by using external reservoirs to feed the ink cartridges allowing the ink to be bought in bulk and reduces the need to regularly change cartridges.

The continuous ink supply system is supplied with full instructions and is very simple to set up requiring virtually no maintenance. Resetting the ink level on Epson's status monitor is the only maintenance required and this is achieved by simply switching the printer off and on.

Each ink tank holds 80ml of ink reducing the need to change your cartridges regularly; meaning less ink is wasted charging new cartridges. Changing the ink on the continuous ink system is very simple. Each ink reservoir is clear so you can see how much ink is left. Using the supplied syringes you can easily transfer the ink from the replacement bottles into the reservoir.

Most importantly the continuous ink supply system will not invalidate your manufacture's warranty and can easily be removed if you want to revert back to congenital printing. No custom modification is required and the system can be removed leaving no trace it was ever installed.

The biggest advantage of continuous ink supply systems is the cost of replacing the ink and this where the true cost saving is reflected. As the ink can be bought in bulk ink bottles containing 100ml a full set is around the same price as a set of cartridges. The average ink cartridge contains between 13ml and 18ml. This means the continuous ink supply system offers around 5 times as much ink for the same price as conventional cartridges.

This continuous ink system has been produced specifically for Epson's new R series of printers such as the R265. It uses special dye based ink to give the same finish as Epson's Claria ink.
