Which printer has cheapest ink

Archived from groups: comp.periphs.printers (More info?)

I would forget the Epsons,go for Canon! Look into a Canon ,they are usually
the cheapest to operate.The ip3000 or the older i860/865 would be a good
choice.

Canon makes some of the most economical printers on the market. Their
"think tank" ink system uses individual colour cartridges and they seem
to produce the highest page coverage, keeping cost per page low.

The ink tanks are also very easy to refill, dropping costs to about
1/10th the price of replacement cartridges. With good quality
third-party photo paper and refilled ink tanks, you can print photos at
home for less than any photo lab I've come across.

I bought a Epson C84 for 86USD and am getting a 20USD rebate on it.
I buy my carts from Printpal.com for 7 and 8 USD each shipped free.
They work great
the C84 is an excellent printer
