I have the R300 and love it. I do not love the price of the
replacement ink. I have printed about 200 DVD and CD labels with it
and have not had a problem. The software that comes with the printer
has performed well. Check out the options for re-inking of this
machine and you will be pleased with it. I believe that Canon has the
same type of chip on its cartridges. They only allow a certain amount
of ink to be dispensed and then they stop. There is a workaround for
Epson, I don't know about Canon.

Canon carts don't have chips.
If you like R300 why not consider R200? Same thing without frills.

They are both good printers and you should only use factory ink.
However, if you want a dual purpose (business and photo) printer the
IP4000 is best. It is faster than the Epson, as good if not better
photo print quality, better business print quality due to the extra
pigmented black, dual paper feed and prints full duplex.
The Epson does print on special printable CDs but people has said the
mechanism malfunctions.

Our emails and list mail have probably crossed. Thank you for your
apology, I now understand what has been going on. I'm glad you are
trying to control the situation.
