I have an Epson R300 Photo that I'm going to buy ink for quite soon. An
entire set of inks should run about $80.00 retail. The thought occured to
me I could buy a new R200 Photo for nearly that amount. My question - are
the inks included with a new printer the same capacity/quantity as the inks
you'd buy off the shelf?
TIA,
RJ

Yes, they don't have any "high capacity" catridges yet for these models.
And I know what you're thinking... Buy an R200 for $99 and pull out the
ink. Sell it on eBay for $50 and you're saving money.... (it works
<grin> )

Get the UK Jet Tec Inks, they are cheaper and you get 30% more ink.

Should have been R200.
The R200/300 & RX500 all use the same tanks
