Default Looking for pigment ink for my inkjet printer in Canada.

Hi All- I use a combination of CIS and refillable spongeless
cartridges for all of my printers, but am running out of pigment ink.
I buy from inksupply.com in the USA, but with shipping and duty, the
ink is not a good price. I dont sell much of my work, so I cannot
afford a ton.

I am also looking for a Canadian company that sells B&W pigment or
dye based ink.

Any help would be appreciated...

I should add that the black in I order for my HP Photosmart 7700 was
labeled as pigment but the coloured inks were not labeled either way.

I have sent off an e-mail asking about different inks. They responded
really fast.

I am waiting to hear back about even more items now- Thanks again.

Check out www.inksupply.com

It is one of the most extensive collections of ink I have found so
far, including instructions on how to refill your own cartridges,
refillable spongeless cartridge and CIS sales.

They even sell B&W ink, which will turn my basic dye based 6 colour
printer into a photo finisher quality archival (pigment) B&W printer
using black, light black, gray and light gray inks. They even support
printer profiles and will electronically make my colour printer
recognize and print with the B&W inks!

Did you read my blurb on the Continuous Ink System (that will change
your life) yet??

OMG! its so exciting!

I print for practically free now!

Not Really.  You do pay a price.

You get lower quality results than OEM

Your prints will fade more quickly

You run a higher risk of a clogged print head

You support vendors who will not tell you what you are buying

If you have a high print load than it may be economically justifiable to use the lower grade ink but do not say you print practically free now because you do not.

No need to get mad at measekite for voicing his opinion. (I am glad he
did)


He does have a point to an extent- There is a difference in quality of
aftermarket inks. I have bought ink from Costco, and it is not as good
as the ink I am currently using (which is made in Japan vs China)

Even if the quality was lower to some degree, (which it is not- I
would love to mail measekite print #3751 from the same printer -which
did not clog- and have him see for himself), and if it did fade
quicker, .17¢ for ink vs $2.17 for the same print ($98 for a set of
cartridges that yield 45~ 8.5X11 prints vs $80 for 10 cartridges worth
of ink in a CIS) makes it worth re-printing again and again if
necessary!

Yes, Maybe I lucked out, but from two different suppliers from Canada
and the US?

I am a lucky guy, I guess (or maybe not- Maybe many companies do sell
quality!)
